Issues fixed
- A comprehensive list of issues, and their fixes, is listed on the Dark Mod Wiki here.
"Game Error: Couldn't Load *.script"
Update to version 2.01 to fix this issue.[1]
Game refuses to run on 64-bit Ubuntu
If it complains about missing libcurl version 4, try installing libcurl3 package forcing i386 architecture by issuing the following command:
sudo apt-get install libcurl3:i386
Other Information
Performance tweaks
- Performance tweaks can be found at the Dark Mod Wiki and the Dark Mod FAQ.
- The game is built on the Doom 3 engine, so the TweakGuide should still be applicable.
- Do not tweak the
r_lightScale
variable as it's used to calculate player's visibility (light gem). It's actually possible to disable all lights in the game by assigning it a value of 0.
