I cant get into EL

[Guest Derek11]

right, yes. once those files are available we should be able to use point particles again.

 

for those who want the details, the client will be checking to see if those files exist when it loads. as it can't find them, it will produce an error and stop

and what does your error log show? that fix posted is only for if it's those missing files. and even if it does complain about those files, there can be other problems.

 

to get a clean error_log: delete error_log.txt, run EL once, then read what's in it. if it's a transient problem, then delete each time you load until it crashes, then keep that.

and if it only happens when you do a certain thing in game, empty the file before you do it, do it, then see what's in the file.

 

oh, and the el.ini you PMed me had mipmaps turned on

try full screen, shadows, no adjust shadows, shadow mapping, cloud shadows, and mipmaps all turned off (= 0 )

maybe we should make a R.A.T. for el so devs and ppl that are trustable can help newbs like you :>

 

btw freeone i LOVE your siggy badly didnt u forget to give the file executable rights?

wow i was gone for a LONG time.

 

anyway where is "el.ini"? ttlanhil told me to go under there and change point_particles to off.

 

oh and my graphics card is VIA/S3G UniChrome IGP cuold that be the problem?

[twistedlove8]

p.s. im still having the same problem from the beginning

[m_bee]

el.ini is a file that should be under c:\program files\el directory in windows, or in ~/.elc if you are using linux or any other posix-like OS. Just open it with a text editor and search for that line, then change the number.

ok i changed point_particles to 0 and it still doesnt work.

 

i think i might have to reinstall

[Guest Derek11]

remember when I said to check the error_log.txt? and tell us what's at the end of it, so we can find out what's wrong?

[Guest Derek11]

I'm having the exact same problem and getting the exact same error log. I changed point particles to 0, but it didn't change anything. I'll try re-installing and see what happens.
