The Dark Mod updated to 2.07!

TDM 2.07 is primarily a stability release, aimed at improving several experimental features that were added in 2.06. Soft shadows now work better, for example, with fewer graphical glitches and a new Shadow Map mode that allows for contact hardening (and generally better performance).

In addition to greater stability, there are a few new gameplay features, including a new frob helper that can be turned on in the Gameplay menu.

Mantling low and medium-sized obstacles is now faster and smoother, and further mantling improvements are already in the works for the next update.

There are a few new assets included in the update, including some new architectural module pieces, new chain models, and several trap prefabs (along with videos on how to set them up).

For a longer list of changes and additions, see the 2.07 wiki page, or the full changelog.


To update, simply run the tdm_update.exe file in your darkmod folder. Please be aware that old saved games will not be compatible with 2.07, so finish any missions you might be in the middle of first!

You guys have done a great job. Fabulous.



Can I suggest you put margin:auto in the css of the containing div on the site?

Congratulations to all involved! :D

Can't wait to delve into this.

Awesome work! :thumb:

time to finally have a serious go I guess.

Yes!!! Can't wait to try the new stuff :D
Congrats to everyone involved!

Congratulations! What an impressive accomplishment! :thumb:

Congratulations! I love the Dark Mod. I can't wait to give it a go

Damn... have to wait till weekend. So frustrating.

Congratulations to the team!

Awesome work guys, congrats on the huge release. I can't even fathom how much work must have gone into making TDM standalone. Looking forward to replaying all the missions 2.0 style... :cool:

Congratulations to everyone involved. I know there's been a huge amount of work to get this out and you should be justly proud of yourselves.

Congrats, that's quite an achievement. :thumb:

Congratulations! I hope this blows some new life to the TDM community.

Great news! Congratulations!

Holyf***. I'm in. Like, now. NOW.
Downloading at 7 kB/s isn't very promising but I will manage, I guess ;>

Sorry, we're getting a lot of traffic right now.

*squee*

This is totally great! As someone who's had a bad time getting the doom 3. . .(and got the WRONG one when I did manage to get it. . .pfft Makes it harder when you don't want the 'actual' game to start with, I think.)) I'm thrilled to hear this.

I'm off to download - and hopefully - if it all goes well, I know what I'll be doing the next several days!

Excellent work, Team TDM...:thumb:

...Can't wait to try it out...:cool:

Amazing! THANK YOU. Loud cheer, hearty back slaps and big kisses to all involved.
Been wanting to play these FMs for ages, but no Doom just gloom. Now happy happy smiley face :thumb:

In the words of Garrett, "Here we go".

No wonder!

I guess I'll have to wait another half day or longer. Must be the traffic. I get "Cannot download from ANY mirror".

Let's hope that is the reason. I did see a 1kb dl speed for a second or two. :)

Ive been downloading since I posted. When I get to fidcals mirror it drops to 13kb, but now Im on roggen, and its going super fast at 786 kb.

I am so excited about this. Thank you guys.

Is it possible to download TDM 2.0 to one PC and then move the "install-folder" to another PC?
I dont have my gaming-PC connected to the Internet.

Funny you should mention that, because that is exactly what I also plan on doing. Im assuming it will work...
