Re: Terminus Machina - A DX Mod
Terminus Machina is officially released!
So the leading issue right now is: "When I attempt to launch Terminus Machina from the shortcut, it tries to find "C:\deusex\system\sstm.exe" and it says that the specified path couldn't be found."
To fix this basically you have to modify the shortcut to point to wherever you've installed Deus Ex.
Is there an easier way around this? The shortcut I basically just added to the zip file installer (had trouble making the exe)

Re: Terminus Machina - A DX Mod
I had issues getting it to run yesterday =/ Modified the shortcut (I figured that out :p ) but it constantly loaded up with normal DX game (training map, new game with menu map etc).
Will give it another shot today, but curious if you'll be working out an installer any time soon?

Re: Terminus Machina - A DX Mod
I'll try and work out an installer, do you know of any ones that area easy to use?
Also, when you run Terminus Machina are you running the shortcut file in DeusEx/System called "TerminusMachina"?

Re: Terminus Machina - A DX Mod
Yep, I followed the instructions and ran the shortcut (modified to fit my install directory on Steam) as well as using the Steam fix file...
I'll give it another shot this evening and see how I go. I may have just missed something small. Looking forward to this either way All these new DX mods have motivated me to return to mine...

Re: Terminus Machina - A DX Mod
Hm, yeah, hope we can sort that out... Glad that you're getting back into the DX modding groove. We can never have enough DX mods!
Hmm, yeah you might want to check your Terminus.ini to see if there's any weird directories in there. I know one guy with Steam had to mess with his paths in his .ini file to get things to work.

It's out? For real? Maybe I'll have to try it then.SilverSpook wrote:Terminus Machina is officially released!

Congratulations on making this happen. Man! DX fans are really spoiled lately...

Re: Terminus Machina - A DX Mod
I'm wondering if we can make this work with kentie's launcher like other mods.
I've downloaded it so I'll have a play with the files and see what I come up with!

Re: Terminus Machina - A DX Mod
I think at least one tester tried and it should work, although I'm not sure if they actually put it into the launcher or just used it with kentie's renderer stuff.
Re: Terminus Machina - A DX Mod
I got it all working Just ended up making my own shortcuts and so on and it ended up ok

Re: Terminus Machina - A DX Mod
Had to change the shortcut to
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Deus Ex\System\sstm.exe" INI="C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Deus Ex\System\Terminus.ini" USERINI="C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\DeusEx\System\TerminusUser.ini" -h4x0r
I've got into the game but none of the controls work.

Controls don't work? Like you can't move or do anything or is it just certain keys don't work?

Anyone know an easy way to make an installer that will just generate those shortcuts and paths and such automatically? I'm looking into a few but I'm kinda short on time to work on TM right now.

Re: Terminus Machina - A DX Mod
I can't even bring the menu up. Clicking, pressing escape, nothing.SilverSpook wrote:Controls don't work? Like you can't move or do anything or is it just certain keys don't work?
I went into the User.ini file and added 'talk' and managed to get the legend menu up and open a map to see if other controls (movement) worked but they don't.
Maybe I need to have more of a play with the files.

Re: Terminus Machina - A DX Mod
You have to run the "TerminusMachina" shortcut file to play the game and the ini file is actually "TerminusUser.ini". Maybe take a look at the TerminusUser file? Also, if you changed the shortcut file, you have to also change the paths for the Terminus.ini and TerminusUser.ini in the shortcut.

Done and done. Way ahead of you brother.SilverSpook wrote:You have to run the "TerminusMachina" shortcut file to play the game and the ini file is actually "TerminusUser.ini".

Even with this, nothing works. That was the .ini I edited. It's very strange.
