THE DARK MOD was once a total conversion of Doom 3, and is now a STANDALONE GAME with the release of TDM 2.0! A dark and moody stealth game, inspired by the Thief series by Looking Glass Studios.
Shortly after the 2.07 release, updated AMD drivers caused rendering errors for The Dark Mod. This patch tries to rectify that.
Forum reports are indicating update 2 has cured this for all affected AMD users.
I presume i don't need this if i've run that 'Beta testing 2.07-hotfix' that was posted in the darkmod forums.
Beta testing 2.07-hotfix seems to download about 53mb of data which affects a few files ,according to the logs.
Like if i put the normal tdm_mirrors.txt file back in the game folder it will download approx. 53mb again to "correct" the game files (ie: put them back to the pre-testing normal version).
This fix posted here looks like it only affects one file ,tdm_base01.pk4 .
Well ,that's the file that comes in the archive along with
TheDarkModNoTools.exe .
So which is the proper AMD fix ?
Or do they both do a similar thing for us AMD users?
They both are similar but I would suggest sticking with the one at the forums:
Forums.thedarkmod.com
...since this one was built with 2.08 alpha code instead of a proper 2.07 backport.
