Title: Detect Available [video] Cards glitch out?
Post by: JustJace on May 05, 2015, 04:33:42 am

So I am attempting to setup my video card, but for some reason, the program attempts to analyze what I am using, but simply goes to black. Am using "PlayOnMac" to emulate - OSX Yosemite v10.10

Searched the forum, did not locate anyone with this problem. Is there a fix for this at all?

As you are on a Mac, I strongly recommend you use FreeSpace Open (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=89597.0), which can run natively there (and also offers a bunch of other improvements).

Lol, went to a black screen again. Except this time, I had to hard restart my mac. Oof

Tried again "FS2_Open quit unexpectedly." every time. Very odd.

Are you using the Windows build of FS_Open, or the Mac one?

Please post your fs2_open.log file.  Instructions on how to do this can be found in this post.
