I have a large collection of "classic" PC games that I like to revisit from time to time and play on my current gaming machine. Russian Roulette with graphics driver changes, or having to find manual hacks just to play an older game are not my kind of fun. John Lewis. I love NVidia Its nice when you've been away a long time to come back and find nothings changed I don't know about any of the other games, but the problem with Jedi Outcast is that it overruns a buffer when it tries to print out a list of OpenGL extensions that video card supports.
I think they have fixed it for the actual Quake3 game Exe's trick works BUT they haven't included fixes explicitly for the other games. I find the rename to Quake3. Thanks to Ross Ridge here for that jk2 Hack..
I will try it. Got your knickers in a twist, I see. In an uncertain world there's a little comfort to be had from knowing some things never change no matter what technological advances are made Also nice to see some folk are still carrying on with that old traditional craft of building straw men. Seems to be a dying art but thankyou. Nice to see you are still around Zag.. I have had mostly good experience with backwards-compatibility with Nvidia graphic-chip and Drivers but i run into trouble when i recently tried the old 'Project I.
I' on my current machine and when i read the ReadMe i found: Q. If you are experiencing missing crosshairs, mouse cursor and life meter indicators in game and are running a Geforce-based graphics card, this is due to compatibility issues with the latest drivers from NVIDIA Detonator XP.
Sorry it took so long to get back here and respond, if you need any more help send me a PM and I'll respond within a day or two. Originally posted by devil View Post. Once you get Quake up and running how you like it you can benchmark for raw performance discrepencies and compare results using your supplied drivers vs forceware or modified drivers.
I suggest using the built-in Over-Driver that comes with your ATi Catalyst installer, it will run your video card through its paces and was designed for getting more bang for your buck. It is unplayable.
Mindfieldzx, thanks a lot for the screenshot - on the riva tuner I have the same screen but when I click customize there is no OpenGL button like there is on your screen- There are only 4 buttons - "low level refresh rate, low leve desktop, diagnostics, reload driver" the omega drivers couldnt install because it said my video card was incompatible while obviously ATI Radeon HD is on the list.. I do not have a q2 or q3 cd handy but I really think ill get the same error message i think my only solution is to play around with older drivers from Lenovo itself as ATI drivers and omega drivers did not work well for me OK, it sounds to me as though you're not getting hardware accelerated OpenGL.
Whatever software emulation path your card is running through is not providing sufficient framebuffer memory for a fullscreen mode, but does so for a low res windowed mode. First place to check is your driver, and this is where things can become sticky. Lenovo may have locked down your laptop so that it can only accept their drivers I've seen Toshiba do that too , so Google will be your friend for resolving that.
Whatever driver you're using anyway, it doesn't seem to support hardware OpenGL. You need to get rid of your current driver and get a proper certified one. That way you're ruling out another variable. The Q2 or Q3A demos should be sufficient for confirming this is the case, but right now my money is on lack of hardware OpenGL rather than a Q1 problem, so there doesn't seem much need to test.
All rights reserved. Yes No. OK Cancel. QuakeGL should boot up just fine now. Now if you are interested, you can have GLQuake. Simply right click on Quake from Steam.
And click on "Properties" and then click on "Set Launch Options Here is a command for you to write into it so then if you run the Steam Overlay, you won't have to deal with the flickering.
