Likewise, the script from Forest Hale would also work appropriately for those desiring to add player-made modifications for others with single-core processors as long as the following portions DO NOT BECOME PART OF THE SCRIPT:
sleep 5 taskset -p 1 `pidof Tqit.exe`
I did this to prevent crashes and graphical corruption which occur after a few minutes of play.
As far as I can tell the game actually restricts itself to one core on Windows (due to these same crashes) but the attempt fails on wine, hence this script.
My system has a single core, but other problems occur regardless of its presence type. I was able to get certain parts to work well, yet others errors seemed unresolvable, which I identify as related to my nVidia video hardware. It is in my opinion that using the original suggested script is best as a default. The last two lines didn't appear to benefit my computer during game play.
With no modifications, Immortal Throne 1.30 appears to work correctly. "TQUpdater.EXE" in the Patch folder within the Immortal Throne folder will reset and erase modifications in the standard Titan Quest folder. This re-allows the icon created during the installation processes to work normally.
With the above comments, I have been able to get TQM files working.
Did you test thoroughly? The crashes and corruption take a few minutes to appear, and usually involve traveling far away from your starting location.
I am not familiar with TQUpdater.EXE, I currently have the game on Steam (where understandably such a thing would not be present), so I can't check this. (I used to have the retail game but gave it to a friend after purchasing it on Steam)
My version came from DVDs. I might have had extra complications because of that as well. I could play uninterrupted for a couple of hours, but loading scenes for some reason causes horrible crashing. I purchased my versions, but I used a NoDVD patch as well. I'm not sure if that also had to do with my problems.
For running with out disks, the Steam version seems the best in my opinion. I also attempted various fixes with registry edits for Direct3D, OpenGL, nVidia, and so on to no avail. It worked beautifully, but then died back to Linux on the player-made portals.
Anyways to resummarize, using the regular script suggested on the main page works for adding modifications.
