Hi there,

 

maybe somebody is able to help me.

DM just won't start on my computer. I updated the driver for my graphic card, reinstalled DM and tried to solve the problem with RadeonPro (as the log kept on mentioning OpenGL I thought to give it a try). And in the forum I did not find any thread that seems to fit to my problem. Thanks a lot in advance!

 

 

 

This is my configuration:

Intel Core2 CPU

6600 @2,40Ghz

2,45Ghz, 3 GB RAM

 

WinXP Home Edition installed and using a ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series as graphic card.

 

 

And this is what the log keeps on telling me, when I try to launch DM. The screen gets black for a second (as it would really launch) and then all I do get is this log:

Something going on with your card and drivers.

 

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

 

Are you running the default driver that came with windows? If so, you need to get the vendor supplied driver. I find that the windows xp drivers quite often fail to implement all the necessary features of the card. They're rather bare bones.

What driver version are you running, you need to have AMD catalyst installed and are not using the Microsoft driver that came with windows as hinted at by NH.

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!
