sos_nl Report post Posted July 13, 2005 (edited) hello, hope that u could help me.. My EL-program has problems: it has an fps of 0, and it resyncs all the time.. my computer: 1ghz AMD, creativegeforce 256 pro, 100GB free space.. My i-net connection: Download 411.2 KByte/sec (=3290 kbps) Upload 38.9 KByte/sec(=311 kbps) Connection 318.0 Conn/min Ping test 17.0 ms i dont think this is the problem, so what could it be? thanks! sos_nl i have some new information: when i start EL he gives the folowing problems couldn't find the: GL_ARB_multitexture_extension GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_array GL_*_point_sprite GL_SGIS_generate_mipmap and Shadowmapping disabled (need newer hardware) On the devices at my computer i tried to install the new driver from the creative site, but it was crap, i only get 4bit resolution any ideas? thnx allot Edited July 13, 2005 by sos_nl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wytter Report post Posted July 13, 2005 Try posting what video card the #glinfo reports that you have. I think that you've forgotten to install your video driver... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
giannis Report post Posted July 13, 2005 (edited) These might increase your FPS. In your el directory find a file named el.ini and open it with your text editor... Find these items: #clouds_shadows = 1 #use_shadow_mapping = 1 #shadows_on = 1 Change all the "1" (ones) into "0" (zeros) (don't type the quotation marks). If you don't see a significant increase in FPS then your last resort will be to find in your el.ini the line: #poor_man = 0 and replace the 0 with an 1.... I hope this helps.

sos_nl Report post Posted July 13, 2005 Try posting what video card the #glinfo reports that you have. I think that you've forgotten to install your video driver... it says: microft corporation OpenGL version 1.1.0 i am pretty sure you dont have any software acceleration What do you mean with software acceleration? DirectX or something? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeone3000 Report post Posted July 14, 2005 1.1.0. Ich, that sounds like the problem right there... I think EL needs 1.2 or 1.5 minimum. I think he means hardware acceleration. OpenGL is like DirectX (closer to Direct3D, but still) in that it makes your video card do the actual things... problem is your video card doesn't understand some instructions that the client's telling it beacuse of an outdated/unsupported OpenGL version. To fix this: Get a newer video card. Not a new one, just a newer... The GeForce4 MX models work fine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
