Error during initialization

[amisch]

Hi all,

 

I found no entry for that in the wiki or forum so I thought I give it a try here. You might be able to help me.

 

I start the game and straight after it goes back to desktop showing the console with the following content at the end of lines:

 

ERROR:The current video card / driver combination does not support the necessary features.

--------------------------------------

Error during initialization

Shutting down OpenGL subsystem

...wglMakeCurrent( NULL, NULL ): success

...deleting GL context: success

...releasing DC: success

...destroying window

...resetting display

...restoring hardware gamma: success

...shutting down QGL

...unloading OpenGL DLL

Okay obviously this means that there is a error with my graphic card, but its a pretty good card and the driver is one of the latest. Any idea how to resolve that issue?

 

Thanks

Hi amisch,

 

Details regarding your PC would be helpful. Could you please provide your system specs and what OS you are running (Linux - what distro, Windows - which version, 32bit/64bit)? Hopefully we can get the bottom of the issue and get you playing

Sounds like you havent actually installe your graphics card drivers. This is usually okaaaay for Direct3D games, albeit with slightly less performance.

 

So make sure you've gone to the nvidia/amd site and got the drivers -- and installed them.
