Same here. Probably not a good idea to make textures that big if you want to retain anything like an acceptable framerate though... :p :D

I hope not, theres an actual point to this.
If no one posts or e-mails on it I will have to assume it was and strike it off the record.

yup that's what I'm saying, I'm afraid I never actualy use the launcher (I never did with the V launcher) exept to set the registry, I have several shortcuts with assorted cmandline options for what I want, this is probly why I have only run in OGL mode two or three times (that and the fact that I'm not working on it)

It needs the hi res vp file to be present in the freespace directory to offer 1024x768. Is the 'Hi res pack' box ticked at the bottom?

Also make sure the target exe is in the correct directory.

I know thats simple stuff but theres not much that can go wrong with that code, if thats not the problem I'll put a debug version together for you.

Also of course make sure you have v3 or better. I think there was a 2.x version that had a bug that caused the problem you have.

I take it neither OGL or D3D offer 1024x768?

I have a Radeon 9700, but don't really know the numerics about this... *Decides not to vote* My educated guess is 'Bloody big'. :) Neverwinter Nights, which seems to be a texture-intensive game (biggest texture-pack all the way, baby!) doesn't give me problems until there's a lot of action and shadows and background activity (like Avast! updating itself). Hm, my point... do I have to have a point... Well, FS2_Open should not bring this machine to its knees unless it's some really radical change.

Try with the Texture size launcher version earlier in this Thread which will show you your maximum texture size.

Even though my TNT2 supports 2048 i wouldn't advise to use ultra large textures, otherwise you will see many PCs on their knees...
Just double FS2 used resolution and it will be enough.

This thread is about determining if support for max texture size below 1024 should be supported.
