Hi, I am now having this same problem, but my card (Im on an Acer laptop, ergh) is an ATI Radeon Mobility x1300, which they have apparently "stopped supporting". Hence I can't download updated OpenGL drivers!
Tried the stuff in this thread to no avail, about to give up. Am I ****ed?
Error: Unable to initialize display device!
File: gropengl.cpp
Line: 2972
thanks for any help! :eek2:

That actually sounds like a completely different problem.
In any case, attach or post ( in "["code"]" "["/code"]" tags please (but without the "") your fs2_open.log file after running a Debug build.
-
Agreed that it's a different issue. Thread split.
-
Ack! I believe it was the same issue, as the first error message I encountered was the same as the OP, ie
"unable to get proper pixel format in OpenGL Win32".
What I posted was from the report log afterwards.

So basically, I need to update OpenGL but there is no availablity of new graphics card drivers. I will search for ways to do this now, but can anyone give me any pointers?
-
What OS and driver are you using? That series of cards should be fine with the Catalyst 9.3 drivers....
-
Hi I'm running Vista and as far as I'm aware there are only one set of mobility drivers for the x1300 etc which date from around 2006. The mobility ATIs are not supported under Catalyst and ATI have palmed the support of them out to the OEM ie Acer, who obviously do nothing to update them.
Gah, I tried using a modding tool to give my mobility drivers some of the abilities of the new 9.10 (wat) ATI drivers but it made no effect on FSO. :shaking:
I may just give up! bloody laptops heh
If anyone does find a way to manually install the Open GL 1.2 component please let me know! x
-
Umm.
The 9.3 drivers are the last ones that support that particular card.
Did you try this: http://www.driverheaven.net/modtool.php ?
-
yeh it just resulted in a massive system crash (tried to mod 9.10 because I couldn't find vista 9.3s anywhere) and bluescreen upon startup, thankfully vista bailed me out with system restore. :lol:
I shall keep looking for the 9.3 then, thanks muchly for the tip!
-
Installed the 9.3 drivers but still get the same error. Cheers for help tho!
Did get a free trial of WOW with the drivers though so maybe I'll try that instead. haha D:
-
I think your driver installation is, in a word, ****ed. That card should be able to use OpenGL 2, never mind 1.2.
Personally, I would recommend a thorough cleaning, followed by a reinstall of the driver.
