Compile the static Boost Libraries in Windows

2012-04-07T22:27:40Z

Serpentinee:

There are several methods to obtain Boost binaries for Windows build environments.

The boost static libraries follow a naming convention as explained in the [http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_45_0/more/getting_started/windows.html#library-naming Boost - Library Naming] . When including boost headers in your MSVC++ projects, the headers (like <boost/regex.hpp>) make use of VC's ''auto linking'' feature, so you don't need to worry about the actual file names, the linker is automatically instructed to require the correct libraries. All you have to do is make sure the linker can find these files in your project's libs directory.

== Download them from Sourceforge ==
You can try to find the static binaries needed on [http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost-binaries/ Boost's Sourceforge page].

Often for very "fresh" releases there are no binaries available yet, so you'll need to fall back compiling the binaries yourself.

== Compile the libraries from Boost sources ==
Download the boost release package from their website, e.g. Boost 1.45, and extract it to a folder. For this guide, I'll assume your boost package has been saved to <tt>c:\tools\boost_1_45_0</tt>).

To build the static libraries Boost you need the the boost jam tool (bjam.exe). At the time of this writing there is a precompiled bjam.exe availabe on [http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost-jam/ Sourceforge]. Save the bjam.exe into some place you remember (e.g. <tt>c:\tools\bjam.exe</tt>). In case the bjam.exe can not be found, you can also build it from sources (this is not within the scope of this article).

Let's start compiling by using the boost.filesystem library as example. Open a command console (Win-R ==> "cmd" => Enter).

cd c:\tools\boost_1_45_0
cd libs\filesystem\build
c:\tools\bjam toolset=msvc link=static threading=multi release stage
c:\tools\bjam toolset=msvc link=static threading=multi debug stage

Note that TDM itself needs an additional switch runtime-link=static in addition to the above:

c:\tools\bjam toolset=msvc link=static threading=multi runtime-link=static release stage
c:\tools\bjam toolset=msvc link=static threading=multi runtime-link=static debug stage

After these commands are done, the '''libboost_filesystem_vc*.lib''' files (both debug and release variants) can be found in the '''stage/''' directory below your boost folder. You'll need to repeat the above steps and replace '''filesystem''' with the names of the other libraries, e.g. '''regex''', '''thread''' or '''system'''.

* Note for x64 users: Add the <tt>address-model=64</tt> option to bjam (after the threading argument) in order to build static libs with the 64-bit compiler.
* Note for users with multiple versions of Visual Studio: you can specify exactly which toolset you want to use by setting <tt>toolset=msvc-9.0</tt> (for VC++ 2008) and <tt>toolset=msvc-10.0</tt> (for VC++ 2010).

Now take the *.lib files from the stage/ folder and copy them into your project's library folder and the linking should succeed.

=== Boost.Python ===
To compile the Boost.Python static lib, you'll need to have a Python distribution installed in your system, otherwise bjam will complain that no Python installation can be found. Download a package from the [http://www.python.org Python website] and install it.

Note: the boost python static library (e.g. '''libboost_python-vc100-mt-gd-1_42.lib''') will contain a reference to a specific version of the python static library. If you downloaded Python 2.7.1, your boost static lib will contain a reference to '''python27.lib'''. This file can be found in the libs/ in the directory you installed Python to, you should add that file to your project's library directory as well.

Another note: when linking against that python27.lib your application will require the python27.dll at runtime. This file can be somewhat tricky to locate. For 32 bit systems this is usually C:\Windows\system32, for x64 systems the 32 bit Python DLL can be found in your C:\Windows\SysWoW64\ folder. On x64 systems, the 64 bit Python DLL is right in C:\Windows\System32.

== Boost.CMake ==
Some people find bjam to be extremely problematic under Windows. If you are having trouble, I would suggest trying the CMake build system branch of Boost. This is also very helpful with compiling the libs for use with Intel's compilers which tend to be badly supported by the bjam build system. Another advantage is that CMake generates Visual Studio solution files, meaning that you can adjust build settings or rebuild components with a familiar interface.

CMake in Windows has a nice GUI which makes configuring the build very easy, as well as providing a way to easily adjust them at a later stage.

[https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/CMake Boost.Cmake - Boost Wiki] - [http://gitorious.org/boost Boost.Cmake - Gitorious]

=== Steps ===
'''CMake:'''
# Download the latest binary release of CMake for your platform [http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html CMake and related downloads]
# Install it. Make sure that the CMake GUI gets installed.

'''Boost.CMake Source:'''
# Figure out which release of Boost that you need — in this case we will assume 1.45.
# Download the relevant release tarball from the Gitorious branch (or use git/hg-git). The tarball can be found in the branch overview i.e, : [http://gitorious.org/boost/cmake/commits/cmake-1.45.0 Boost.CMake 1.45 branch]
# Unpack the tarball somewhere.

'''Configuration and Generating:'''
# Run the CMake GUI tool.
# Set the source path to the location where you unpacked the tarball.
# Set an (empty) build directory - ''Note:'' while it says that this is where the binaries will be placed, this is actually going to be where all of the temporary build files are located, it will also contain the libs if we use default paths - don't freak out if there's loads of other stuff.
# Click 'Configure' and set set which toolset/compiler you will be using. ''Note:'' If you are using icc, you will want to use Visual Studio as the generator but specify the compilers manually (icl.exe).
# There should now be a grid of default build options, many in red. Adjust them if needed, make sure that <tt>ENABLE_STATIC, ENABLE_MULTI_THREADED</tt> and <tt>ENABLE_RELEASE</tt> are ticked.
# Once the configure process is complete, click 'Generate' - This will now place the solution file into the build directory.

'''Building:'''
# Go to the build directory, as specified above.
# Open the solution file.
# '''Note''': By default the libraries are built as multithreaded-dll's (<tt>/MD</tt> flag) this needs to be changed to normal multithreaded for use with TDM. If you are having trouble with TDM linking looking in some strange libs/dlls, this is why.
## Select all of the projects that you wish to build, then right click on them in the solution browser and go to 'Properties'.
## Expand the C++ tab => Code Generation => Runtime Library, change this to 'Multi-threaded (<tt>/MT</tt>).
## Apply.
# While they are still selected, right click on them and then build them.

You should now have the .libs in a /lib folder within your working directory. The libs might need renaming to fit with the naming scheme that is expected, e.g, : <tt>boost-regex-intel-mt-1_45.lib</tt> => <tt>libboost-regex-iw-mt-s-1_45.lib</tt>. This could likely be fixed in the CMakeLists file if you wanted, as well as the <tt>/MD -> /MT</tt> switch.

Standalone Progress

2012-04-03T02:22:54Z

Serpentinee: Yay lets track some progress towards standalone - very incomplete - will do some batch dumps soon.

This page will attempt to track progress of TDM's migration from using Doom 3 assets to that of being self-contained and standalone.

Moveables

2010-10-13T02:37:27Z

Serpentinee: /* Create a Collision Model (CM) */

{{Original_Reference|SneaksieDave & Ishtvan|3968}}

Physics fans rejoice! If you want an object (whether a model or multi-brush/patch) to be moveable (pick up and carry, push, float, shoot, etc.), even though it wasn't designed to be used that way, there is a way to do it anyway, and all within the editor.

==Models==

In summary you need to create the model, make it moveable, and make sure a collision model exists for it...

=== Create a Moveable Model ===

# Create a brush, convert it to a moveable_base entity, and assign it the model you want to use.
# You only need one collision model file no matter how many instances of this moveable you make in your map so check if it has already been created (a .cm file of the same name as the model and in the same folder.) If not..

=== Create a Collision Model (CM) ===

In DarkRadiant:
# '''Important''': Make sure the model is not rotated in any way.
# Drag a new temporary brush over the model, roughly covering it.
# Clip the shape if necessary, or convert it eg, to pyramid or whatever to best fit the model.
# Any texture will do on any surface.
# Convert to func_static (any entity will do)
# Check the origin of the brush entity is in the same place as the model's origin because that is where its origin will be in-game. If they do not coincide then either move the brush so it coincides and resize the brush or key V and drag the origin into position.
# Use the {{menu|File|Create CollisionModel from selection}} menu entry:
# The model selector dialog appears, Select the correct model. Click {{ok}}.
# A .cm should have now been saved in the same folder as the model and with the same name as the model.
# You can now delete the temporary collision model brush entity.

In DoomEd:

# Drag a new temporary brush over the model, roughly covering it. This will be the collision hull, so get it as close as you can.
# Clip the shape if necessary, or convert it eg, to pyramid or whatever to best fit the model.
# Convert that brush to '''func_clipmodel'''.
# Check the origin of the brush entity is in the same place as the model's origin because that is where its origin will be in-game.
# Texture it with '''common/collision'''.
# With that brush still selected, do '''Selected->Export->To CM'''. Locate the model for which it will stand as a clipmodel, and save with the same name. The path and name are vital. Don't worry, DoomEd will automatically name it .cm instead by of your model's extension, so it shouldn't overwrite anything.
# You can now delete the temporary collision model brush entity.

==Brush/Patch Moveables==

You can make virtually any brush/patch construction into a moveable. At its core must be a simple brush to form the collision shape. I've had a brush with 12 surfaces as a moveable OK. I don't know if there is a limit but it's my belief that it won't work if too complicated a shape. However, we can get round that and produce very complex moveables such as a stepladder with multiple steps and ladder surface. We do that by binding the construction to a single central collision shape brush which is the actual moveable entity.

===Simple brush moveables===

First let's take the simplest of brush moveables: a stone block. It is not uncommon in FMs to have a hole in a wall filled with stone blocks or rubble the player can move or push out of the way. So first make your brush stone block from the same texture as your wall so it will match perfectly (if desired.) If it is a broken block (rubble) then you can cut pieces off the basic rectangular block but I would get it all working first and save it then gradually cut piecess off and save the early versions. You might find if you have too many surfaces it might not work. (I am still unsure about this.) I have not tried with patches but it should work. In any event you can certainly bind a patch to an unrendered block to get what you want.

* Make the brush an atdm:moveable_base entity. Later a proper entity inheriting from atdm:moveable_base might be made up with the following spawnargs to save time. (I couldn't get this to work with the custom entities which have to use a model.)
* Give it mass (in kilos)
* No need to give it density as this is now calculated from its volume and mass.
* Give it friction (0 to 1) I usually aim low about 0.1 else it can be 'sticky'
* Give it snd_bounce as the sound it will make on impact. Example: med_metal_impact. I suggest you look at what some already existing moveable of a similar size and material is using.
* Give it an alert size and hardness. This determines how AI will react to its sound. If you don't then it will default to medium size and hard so if your object is about that then you need do nothing. Otherwise, give it these two spawnargs/values. These are the possibles:
** spr_object_hardness - can be soft, medium, or hard
** spr_object_size - can be small, medium, or large

By default, the above will highlight and can be pushed about, frobbed and picked up, carried, and manipulated by the player.

If you want it only to be pushed but not picked up then give it frobable 0.

If you want it to go in the inventory:
* Give it inv_category. This can be eg, Special, Tools, Keys. (look at currentsimilar objects)
* Give it inv_name with the value of whatever name you want it show in the inventory.
* Give it inv_icon with the value guis/assets/hud/inventory_icons/default which will show blank (otherwise you get a black square.) If you can create your own icon then even better.
* Give it snd_acquire with the value tool_pickup is a good default (the sound it makes when the player gets it.)

===Remake the map cm file if console error===

'''IMPORTANT!''' This caused me a lot of headaches over a couple of years until I realized so memorize this even if you forget everything else. When you first make a brush moveable it might work fine but later you get a console error: 'cannot load collision model'. You might get this if you rename the entity or import it as a prefab into another map. What you must do is DELETE the map cm file (in maps folder mymap.cm) then DMAP again. Dmap doesn't know if you changed anything so you need to force it to recreate the map collision file.

===More complex brush and patch moveables===

To make complex brush moveables like a stepladder you first create a simple brush moveable as described above and texture it with textures/common/collision. Size and shape this brush to approximate the basic size and shape of the object you are making. Try to avoid over-complexity of this shape; it only needs to determine collisions. For example, for the stepladder I made an upright right-angled triangle shape. This is the core of the stepladder; the actual moveable entity as described in the above section. You then make your more complex shape(s) into func_static(s) and bind to the collision shape to get the best fit. The collision shape is what the player picks up but it is not visible of course.

==== Making frobable ====

The above is OK for pushing around but if you want to be able to pick up the object it needs to be frobable. At this point only the invisible collision moveable is frobable but its highlight is invisible! To make the visible object frobable do the following:

To the invisible moveable add the property/value:

''frob_peer'' <name of visible object>.

To the visible object add the properties/vaues:

''frobable'' 1

''frob_distance'' 1 (do NOT use 0 or it defaults to the normal distance.)

What the above does is allow the visible object to highlight but not directly frobable. Instead when it highlights it means you are focused on the invisible moveable which is what you want - and it highlights the visible object through the frob_peer.

===Model/Brush hybrid===

In the earlier sections on making a moveable model is described how to make an external model cm file. In some situations you might instead bind a static model to a brush moveable as described above. In some cases you might make the brush moveable visible or some surfaces visible. An example makes it easier to understand: I took a model chest body. Made a rectangular brush moveable to completely fill it. I textured it with textures/common/collision but the top surface I gave it the texture that the chest used. When aligned carefully it complete sealed the top so it looks like a new luggable crate. Then bind the chest model to the brush moveable. To make it frobable see above [[#Making frobable]]

Serpentinee: A bunch of random edits

{{important|headline=Important|text=This FAQ relates to the full TDM release version only. For players of the pre-release demos such as '''[[Thief's Den]]''' and '''[[Saint_Lucia|Tears of Saint Lucia]]''' please refer to the '''[[FAQ (Demo Releases)|Demo FAQ]]'''.'''}}

== What Doom versions are supported? ==

=== Can I use the Demo version of Doom 3? ===

No, sorry.

=== Does it run with the Steam version of Doom 3? ===

Yes :) You need to install the mod into the directory where Steam put Doom3, this might be under:

C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\doom 3

or a similiar folder.

'''Important:''' Create a shortcut on your desktop and set it to the following:

steam.exe -applaunch 9050 +set fs_game_base darkmod

This ensures that when you start Steam, it will launch TDM and not Doom 3 without TDM.

== Patching Doom 3 to verson 1.3.1.1304 ==

=== How can I check whether my Doom 3 is correctly patched? ===

Open Doom 3 and hit {{key|Ctrl}}+{{key|Alt}}+{{key|~}} (tilde, {{key|^}} on German keyboards) to open the console. You'll see the version printed in the lower left corner of the console. It should read '''1.3.1.1304'''. If your version is ending on 1302, you've got the wrong patch installed.

=== Where can I get the right patch? ===

We have the patch hosted on our FTP. See the [[Installation]] article to find a link to it.

If you have version 1.3.1.1302, you may need to uninstall and reinstall before patch 1.3.1.1304 will let you apply it.

=== What's that issue with the 1.3.1 patch? ===

When the 1.3.1 patch was released by Id, they released it a bit too early. Some download sites picked it up quite fast though and started to distribute it. The problem is, that Id replaced that patch with a different one, and, probably thinking that it hadn't spread yet, didn't bother to change the version number. However, you can still find "wrong" 1.3.1 patches and these will not work with the mod. That's why it is important to check the version number in the console to make sure that the right 1.3.1 patch is installed if the mod doesn't work. The link provided here on our own page points to the correct patch, so if you downloaded it from here you don't need to worry about it.

== Supported Operating Systems ==

=== Which Windows versions can I use? ===

The following versions of windows have been tested and are known to work : Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2003 in both 32bit and 64bit flavours.

=== Does it run in Linux? ===
Yes, Linux is supported.

=== Does it run in 64 Bit Linux? ===
Yes, Linux 64 bit is supported. In addition to the steps above, you need 32 bit compatibility libraries, since Doom3 is 32 bit only:
* On '''SuSE''', they should be included.
* On Ubuntu/Kubuntu, install the package '''ia32'''.

For TDM after 1.0, this step should be '''no''' longer neccessary:

* Since you cannot install 32 bit libraries on a 64 bit system with the normal package manager, you should use [http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=474790 getlibs] to install '''libmng''' and the boost filesystem lib:
:<code>getlibs libmng.so.1</code>
:<code>getlibs -l libboost-filesystem1.34.1</code>

=== What about Gentoo? ===
Yes. It's not "officially" supported (the team doesn't test it specifically), however several users have reported success running TDM under Gentoo.

=== What about Ubuntu 8.10? ===
Yes. As of this writing you will need to install the '''libboost-filesystem''' package.

=== GLIBCXX_3.4.9 errors ===

If you receive an error about <tt>GLIBCXX_3.4.9</tt>, delete or rename the files <code>/usr/local/games/doom3/libstdc++.so.6</code> and <code>/usr/local/games/doom3/libgcc_s.so.1.</code>

If this doesn't resolve the error and you have an old version of GCC, then you may have to upgrade. It has been [http://modetwo.net/darkmod/index.php?/topic/9982-the-dark-mod-doom3-in-linux/ confirmed] that, at least under Gentoo, GCC 4.1 does not work with TDM but GCC 4.3 and GCC 4.4 are compatible.

=== Does it run on Mac OS X?===
No. Or at least not yet. The Doom 3 game itself does support Mac OS X, but The Dark Mod currently does not because we don't have any developers who use Macs. If you can help us getting it to run on OS X, please [http://modetwo.net/darkmod/index.php?showforum=11 let us know on the forum].

Since TDM works on Linux already, getting it working on OS X should not be too difficult for anyone with experience programming for that platform. In theory it's just a question of figuring out how to build the mod, sorting out dependencies, and writing a few pieces of platform-specific code.

== Graphics ==

=== Does TDM support widescreen resolutions? ===

Yes. Choose "16:9" or "16:10" in the in-game ''Settings'' menu, and select the appropriate resolution. Note that you need to restart the game to have the new setting in effect.

If the native resolution of your wide screen monitor is not listed, you can enter it into '''DoomConfig.cfg''' by changing the following entries like so:

set r_mode -1
set r_customwidth 1280
set r_customheight 800

Note that if you get performance problems, please consider using a lower resolution and taking a look at [[Performance Tweaks]].

== Troubleshooting ==

It is hard to answer question on why something fails, because wildly different systems cause wildy different symptoms. If the following section does not help you, please ask at out our [http://www.modetwo.net/darkmod forums].

=== Updater (tdm_update.exe) closes almost as soon as it's started ===

See the [[Tdm_update#Updater_closes_almost_as_soon_as_it.27s_started|main article on tdm_update]].

=== FM downloaded but won't play ===

If you have downloaded an FM you might see it in the New Missions List but can't get it to play. These are almost always an install problem. These are some of the causes and cures:

FMs (fan missions) are archives and MUST be suffixed .pk4 not zip. Apparently Internet Explorer 8 may change it from pk4 to zip during download without telling you. You need to rename it back.

You MUST use doom3\darkmod\tdmlauncher.exe to run Dark Mod in Windows and NOT Doom3.exe.

You do NOT need to extract the pk4 archives to install or play. Just download into or move the pk4 into the darkmod\fms folder. Optionally you can create a folder of the same name as the map and put it in there, eg, darkmod\fms\chalice but there is no need because Dark Mod will create that automatically. Just make sure your pk4 goes, unopened, into the fms folder then run tdmlauncher.exe

If you have done the above but see for example, a blank objectives screen and no briefing then it is still almost certainly an install error. I recommend you do a clean sweep if in doubt:
* Exit Dark Mod
* Delete doom3\darkmod\currentfm.txt (this just uninstalls any FM)
* Delete the map game folder (if any) This is NOT the folder in fms but the folder in doom3 of the same name as the FM, eg, doom3\chalice. Note: this has savegames and screenshots in so check and move them out if you want to preserve them. However, if you can't get the game to play it's likely you don't have any yet. If you can't see the folder don't worry. The folder name is normally the same as the pk4 but it might not be. Strictly speaking it must be the same as the name in startingmap.txt inside the pk4 archive. You might see this file in fms.
* Move the pk4 into the darkmod\fms folder if it is not already there.
* Delete the darkmod\fms\FMname folder if any, eg, darkmod\fms\chalice. Don't worry if there isn't one; it will be created automatically later.

So all that is left is the pk4 in the fms folder. Now run tdmlauncher.exe. The FM should be in the list in the New Missions menu. Re-install it and you should now be able to play it.

=== The game crashes on load ===
Make sure that:
* You installed [[#Patching_Doom_3_to_verson_1.3.1.1304|the correct version]] of the Doom 3 1.3.1 patch.
* Your system meets at least the minimum system specs.
* You have enough free main memory. Try closing a few running programs like Outlook, Anti-Virus or torrent clients.

==== Unknown event 'moveToCoverFrom'" ====
If you get a message like:

ERROR: Error: file script\doom_events.script, line 1038: Unknown event 'moveToCoverFrom'

or see this in the log:

found DLL in pak file: C:\Program Files\Doom 3\darkmod\tdm_game01.pk4/gamex86.dll
copy gamex86.dll to C:\Program Files\Doom 3\darkmod\gamex86.dll
could not create destination file

Try extracting that gamex86.dll manually from '''tdm_game01.pk4''' with Winzip or a similiar program into that folder.

The reason is very probably that you installed Doom3 into a folder with a space in it, and it seems Doom3 does not like that. Sorry.

=== Unknown event 'setEntityRelation' ===
The game is crashing to a small blue screen on startup:

[[Image:ErrorSetEntityRelation.jpg]]

The reason for this error is most likely an old version of gamex86.dll (or gamex86.so) lying around in your Doom 3 folder. Delete that file and try again.

=== Textures are missing, screen mostly black ===

[[Image:Tdm missing textures.jpg|right|240px|Black textures]]

Look into your '''DoomConfig.cfg''' inside your <tt>darkmod</tt> folder and check that the following settings are like shown below:

<pre style="max-width:35em">
seta image_usePrecompressedTextures "1"
seta image_useNormalCompression "2"
seta image_useAllFormats "1"
seta image_useCompression "0"
seta image_preload "1"
</pre>

=== Textures are missing, shadows are pitch black ===

Try disabling the AGP surface accelerator in DXDIAG

=== The briefing is very fuzzy ===

Look into your '''DoomConfig.cfg''' inside your <tt>darkmod</tt> folder and check that the following settings are like shown below:

seta image_roundDown "1"
seta image_forceDownSize "0"
seta image_downSize "0"

=== The sky is corrupted ===

You either see black sky, or fragments of other textures. This seems only to happen on Geforce 6800 cards.

There are two fixes for this:

As a quick fix you can rename the following folder:

env/skyboxes/skybox_darkland_ne

to an different name. That will result in black sky.

Alternatively, edit the file <tt>materials/tdm_sky.mtr</tt> with '''Wordpad''' or a different editor and
find the sky material named '''textures/darkmod/nature/skybox/skybox_darkland_NE''':

<pre>
//Author: Dram
//skybox_ocean with ocean replaced with dark land
//Moon moved to north east by Fidcal
textures/darkmod/nature/skybox/skybox_darkland_NE
{
qer_editorimage env/skyboxes/skybox_ocean/ocean_ed
noFragment
noshadows
noimpact
nooverlays
forceOpaque
{
forceHighQuality
blend add
cameraCubeMap env/skyboxes/skybox_darkland_ne/darkland_NE
texgen skybox
texgen wobblesky .0 .0 .0
}
}
</pre>

In this declaration, comment out the line that reads '''forceHighQuality''' by adding <tt>//</tt> in front of it:

// forceHighQuality

That should fix the sky and make it render correctly.

=== The Sky rotates ===

If you see the sky spinning it may be an ATI graphics card problem. One report says this was cured by turning off Catalyst AI. Also gives better loading times and cures bloom problem.

=== Bloom problems ===

Bloom has been removed as a default option, if you wish to use it try using r_bloom 1/0; The reasoning behind the change is that it creates lighting situations which are unintended and result in over-bright lights or problems with water textures etc - It is strongly discouraged to use it and should be disabled if you are running an old build from when it was a default. If have a problem with bloom it may be an ATI graphics card problem. One report says this was cured by turning off Catalyst AI. Also gives better loading times and cures spinning sky problem.

===Underwater performance poor===

If you get very low framerates underwater then try turning off bloom.

===Upside-down screen===

If you get an upside-down screen, you can either turn off Catalyst AI if you have an ati card or try turning off bloom.

To turn off Catalyst AI, open your Catylist control panel, go to 'graphics' up the top left, select '3d' from the dropdown list and on the new menu below, select the 'AI'
Now select the 'Disable Catalyst A.I.' checkbox.

To turn off bloom, enter the console and type "set r_bloom 0" (remove quotes)
Then type "vid_restart" (remove quotes) to refresh the graphics.

=== The game is '''very''' slow! ===

If you get loading times of 5 minutes or more, less than 10 FPS, or the game even stutters, please try this:

Look into your '''DoomConfig.cfg''' inside your <tt>darkmod</tt> folder and check that the
following settings are like shown below:

<pre style="max-width:35em">
seta image_usePrecompressedTextures "1"
seta image_useNormalCompression "2"
seta image_useAllFormats "1"
seta image_useCompression "1"
seta image_preload "1"
</pre>

If that doesn't help, your system might run out of memory. Either upgrade to more than 1 Gbyte memory,
or try to close some other applications before playing.

Please see also the article about [[Performance Tweaks]] to improve the performance.

=== Slow loading times ===

If you find an FM is very slow to load it may be an ATI graphics card problem. One report says this was cured by turning off Catalyst AI. Also cures bloom and spinning sky problem.

===Game freezes for several seconds when opening doors===
The following problems :

A) "game freezes and loads some data from hard drive while opening doors"
B) "while loading mission you are returned to the menu and need to restart loading"

Are often resolved by disabling EAX 4.0 HD in Audio Settings menu.

===Game exits to menu after mission load, with renderpipe error in console===

'''Symptoms:''' Missions are installed properly and will load, but after they reach 100% you are returned to the main menu or objectives screen. If you open the console (Ctrl-Alt-~ on US keyboards), you see one/both of these errors:

ERROR: Failed to open \\.\pipe\dm_renderpipe

or

ERROR: idRenderSystemLocal::uncrop currentcrop <1

'''Solution:''' Some firewalls, notably ''Sunbelt Firewall'' (aka ''Kerio Firewall'') are known to interfere with TDM's lightgem, ''even when "disabled"''. To fix this problem, completely uninstall the firewall, and get a different one instead.

==="COULD NOT FIND TDMLAUNCHER" when installing an FM===

If you receive this error message you should check the start-arguments of DOOM3.exe / tdmlauncher.exe. Arguments are stored in darkmod/dmargs.txt and a faulty syntax e.g. a missing "+" before a "set"-command, will lead to this error message. Steam-users are advised to remove any launch-options from Doom.

===The sound lags behind the picture===

This seems to happen on Linux with certain ALSA drivers. You can try to disable "Dolby Souround" (switch to "Stereo") or just use OSS instead:

Put the following setting on your tdmlauncher.linux command line:

+set s_driver oss

and use "Stereo".

=== Changing the screen resolution/aspect ratio does nothing!? ===

These changes require a restart of Doom to work.

=== Steam launches D3, not TDM ===

Whenever you start Steam and it does launch vanilla Doom instead of TDM, make sure you
follow this advice:

'''Important:''' Create a shortcut on your desktop and set it to the following:

steam.exe -applaunch 9050 +set fs_game_base darkmod

This ensures that when you start Steam, it will launch TDM and not Doom 3 without TDM.

Model Wishlist

2010-06-01T16:15:38Z

Serpentinee: Merged forum wishlist

==About==
This list is just a more or less random list of models which would be nice to have accessible in TDM. The aim of which is to allow someone to pick up and help out the TDM project with some modeling. Objects in the list are not listed in any particular order. Feel free to add to this list, if you finish a model(s) please use the forums to show off your work and we'll get them into the TDM base if they are acceptable. Reusing existing textures or UVing yourself is highly recommended and will be far more likely to make it in.

And remember, just because it's not on the list doesn't mean we don't want it! If you have any other models that you think would fit the TDM universe, please feel free to show us!

==General Idea Wishlist==

*Pumpkin
*Melon
*Dartboard + Dart
*Cut/chopped food models - reuse existing, as if someone were preparing food
*Candle holders of all types
*Scythe
*Pulley - small/large
*Bookshelves - the more the merrier
*Cogs and machine parts
*Whole machines - do not need to be animated or anything fancy
*Broken barrel/boxes
*Bunk bed
*Club - existing club is a bit too hefty
*Walking stick
*Staff - existing quarter staff model is quite unTDM
*Low poly iron fencing - current ones are quite expensive
*Market stall - existing one is a bit too basic, could do with a more complete one, tho keep the poly count down
*Containers - chests/barrels/baskets etc

Console Useful Controls

2010-01-26T01:38:34Z

Serpentinee: added a few

==Introduction==

This is a list of common console commands and cvars that are of use to Dark Mod mappers and developers for testing etc. It is in order of key words and meaning. There is no use just adding a cvar or command - one can just look on any of the published lists. Instead think what will be in the user's head. For example, you want to know the joint name on a particular AI? You might be looking under J but instead you might be think B for bone, or indeed 'Wasn't there a cvar to show the AI skeleton?' so you look under S. Or the user might look first under AI. It should ideally be under all four...

==Notes==

* Where a cvar or command is followed by a 1 (parameter) it can be taken that it is enabled by 1 and disabled by 0 unless otherwise stated.
* Where a cvar or command is followed by a N (parameter) it indicates a range of values.
* The current value of a cvar can be shown by entering its name without a value.
* Parameters can be toggled between values by preceding the control with 'toggle' and following it with eg, 1 0. Example : toggle r_showtris 3 0
* Controls can be bound to keys to be used in-game, including the toggle command, eg, bind "v" "toggle r_showportals 1 0"
* Many controls can be included in the file Doomconfig.cfg in the darkmod folder so they are automatically effective.
* Some controls are disabled on exit from a map; others are permanent until manually changed.

Following is what should be (provided the community keeps the list up to date) the definitive list of every fan mission ever released for The Dark Mod.
* Only include missions that are fully released, not those currently in development or testing.
* List by release date descending (newest at the top) - to change the ordering, click on [Image:http://modetwo.net/darkmod/wiki/skins/common/images/sort_none.gif] to sort by that column.
* A mission title may be listed in plain text as a record of release, or may optionally act as a link to an information page or primary direct download.
* '''Big Ugly Disclaimer:''' The Dark Mod team does not necessarily support or endorse content listed here. Apart from listed missions hosted directly on the [http://www.thedarkmod.com/ official TDM website], The Dark Mod team does not host the missions listed here, and disclaims all responsibility for them. This is a community maintained list, and an ongoing work in progress. Missions which are known to violate copyright must be text-only, and cannot contain links. Report and/or remove links found in violation of this rule.
