Title: Almost there
Post by: Singh on December 31, 2003, 11:57:45 pm: OK.
I almost- ALMOST have FS2 working on this system. I tried the OpenGL approach, and it said that I require drivers which have OpenGL v1.2 or something similar, and that my current version is V1.1
Can anyone help me with this?? If i can get FS2 to work (albiet with sucky graphics) at least it means i can FRED and playtest my own missions!

im currently running Win2000 with an STB Veloticy 128 (Nvidia)

Post by: IceFire on January 01, 2004, 10:02:26 am: A Riva 128? Likely doesn't go that high - even in drivers. I could be wrong but thats essentially the same generation as a 3DFX Voodoo 1 card (but it was never quite as sucessful).
