Title: Custom Flags
Post by: nubbles526 on August 09, 2007, 09:39:36 am
Ok, I am really really, pissed off at the custom flags sections. This is the first time I used this so I am not familiar. I followed everything that FS Wiki recommended me to do, but nothing really happens. I use Direct3D instead of OpenAL. OpenAL doesn't work somehow. What is going on?!

Well, for a start you need to use OpenGL not OpenAL or Direct3D.  :P

I assume you meant OpenGL, so how doesn't it work exactly??

- I use Nvidia GeForce 6600

What is your desktop resolution and pixel depth? (ie. 32bit or 16 bit) as game requires 32 bit

Are you running vista?

Vista + Nvidia's older drivers == non functional OpenGL

Make sure you have latest graphics drivers
