Wonderful job guys! I'm looking forward to playing it if the download ever finishes :) Please release a torrent so you aren't bombarded with traffic and maybe look in to distributing the files with torrents instead. I'm getting 5kB/s right now in the updater, and people are reporting 3 or less...this is a big release, torrents give a chance for the community to support each other, and you guys by taking that bandwidth burden off your back. From the looks of it, the site may even be down from all the page views.

Some extra mirrors are being added to help with the load I believe, and I'm sure a torrent is underway as well.
I don't think our servers have ever been hit so hard. Wow.

I'll be archiving my installed copy and tossing it on mega for you, if no one else is. Just a few more hours, hopefully.

In fact, I wanted to show a friend my map (he doesn't have the game installed), so I put the folder on a USB flash drive, plugged it into his computer, and played it right off the drive. :cool:
I love how portable it is.
Yep, I just copied the darkmod folder across to my work machine to play over lunch. The only problem was I had to download a mission manually as the in-game downloader couldn't get the server list, presumably due to the servers getting hammered.

The torrent is very fast at least in comparison to the updater. Takes maybe an hour and a half currently, probably 30 minutes at longest when more seeders come around at the end of the day.

I've uploaded an archive of TDM 2.0 install to Google drive.
Download the link from Google Drive: (

Once you've extracted the zip file to the directory you want, just run tdm_update.exe to have it verify file integrity.
