Eternal lands has stopped working

Recommended Posts

so i downloaded the client so i could play the game (obviously) i hadnt played for a couple months and i decided to try the game out again. at first it wouldn't connect to the server and it said something like "Your DNS Server is down" or something like that. i didn't pay much attention to exactly what it said. so i reinstalled the game. then it worked and it finally got to the log in screen. after i put in my user name and password and hit enter, it sowed the loading bar at the bottom of the screen fill all the way up, and when it finishes the screen turns white and a message says "Eternal-Lands client has stopped working. Windows is checling for a solution to the problem..." then "Aproblem caused Eternal-Lands to stop working. windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." i haven't gotten any notifications... help please?

Haven't bothered with vista too much myself, so take this with a grain of salt, but it looks to me like your having the same issue, and possibly the same solution, updating your video drivers is more often then not the solution when GL_ extentions aren't loading, gl :whistle:

 

Edit: if that doesn't help, go into options at startup and try putting a checkmark in the poorman settings box, sometimes helps with shader problems for me

This link should help walk you through the update process hopefully, and if your still having problems the pinned (FAQ) should help

 

Edit: hmm I don't see vista on there, should be quite similar, main thing is the links on that page to your graphics cards vendors website for drivers (nVidia/ATI/etc.)

taken from http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows...o-card-problems

 

 

 

Open Display Settings by clicking the Start button 4f6cbd09-148c-4dd8-b1f2-48f232a2fd33.png, clicking Control Panel, clicking Appearance and Personalization, clicking Personalization, and then clicking Display Settings.

 

This is where you can find out what kind of video card and monitor your computer has.

 

 

Edit:

 

in that case http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/detect.htm

should be what your looking for, just click on the "Check your system for the latest updates" button, will probably give a popup asking you to install, just click yes or ok to proceed

lol no colors? just in the game? or on the entire screen? sometimes the monitors cable going to the computer can get loose and you can lose some colors, make sure it's in securely

try going into the game options (Ctrl-O), then over to the Details tab, and checkmark poor man settings, from there you can go through the various other video options to see what works/doesn't work for you to find a working mix
