Hi,

 

Please explain how this error came about - did you simply start up Darkmod and it crashed? or did you start darkmod and tried to load a map?

 

Also, if you could post the logfile it would help a lot. The logfile should be in you darkmod folder, called darkmod.log

I assume you can run the vanilla Doom 3 game just fine? Can you load The Dark Mod from the "Mods" menu?

I had the same error.

It appears when you launch the game (cant even get to the menu).

 

If you open the game with the MOD option on Doom 3 I get the same error.

 

I wanna play this mod!!!

Sorry for the late reply.

 

What do you mean exactly with "the same error"? Please give us more details about your installation. Like the following:

 

- How did you install your game?

- Have you followed the instructions on our wiki?

- Is Doom 3 patched to version 1.3.1.1304?

- Have you copied the DevIL.dll file to the Doom3 or the system32 folder?

I patched Doom 3 to v1.3.

I installed the mod and then copy/pasted the DevIL.dll to the system32 folder.

Then I launched the game from the shortcut I created using the wiki but I got the same error posted on the picture abode.

 

After doing that I tried to launch it from the Doom 3 menu but with the same result.

You need to patch to v1.3.1.1304

[linfosoma]

Yeah, I reinstalled doom 3.

Then patched to 1.3.1 and it worked, yay!

 

Its a great mod!! Keep up the good work!

[Komag]

Then you got lucky that your 1.3.1 was indeed 1.3.1.1304, because there is a rogue 1.3.1 patch out there that is actually only 1.3.1.1302, which would not have worked!

We should have packaged the correct patch with the Thief's Den download. Would have saved a bit of trouble.
