I have also a problem with OGL. My problem is that I allways get the message that my ogl drivers are to old. I have allready installed the latest drivers for my gracard (somewhere in the discription its metionend that it supports ogl 2.0) but still I get this error message.

Is their a possibility to check what ogl version I got on my system like with dxdiag?

Got an older Geforce 5700

[Kazan]

if you have openGL 2.0 you need to make sure to run a more recent build - older builds [that we still occasionally run into people running /BONK] only checked the minor number and not both the minor and the major - so it's thinking you have OpenGL 1.0 not 2.0

all newer builds have this corrected

Ok I got the newest build an now the game starts, but I can't see a thing. All graphiks are weird and hard to recognize.

Oh and FRED still dosn't start...or lets better say I get the toolbar and thats it...but the program reports no crash or anything...just shows the toolbar.

[Kazan]

run the launcher and check your settings

[edit]
what exact video board?

[gevatter Lars]

Luncher should be ok.

Videoboard is a
Geforce Fx5700 with 256MB
PCI-card
Forceware 77.72

Goobers release fs2_open_G-20050728.exe

Edit:
I have also tried to reset everything in the Luncher and then restarted it...no effect.

[Kazan]

run a debug build and give us the output from the log

ok here is the log for

The program crashes when running the debuger and runs without it....except for the graphikproblem.

[Kazan]

try this build.. tell me if it fixes it

[gevatter Lars]

Ok this is the result I got when running in OpenGL



That is the login-screen.

[Kazan]

looks like a driver issue to me

****ING A MAN!  That is your problem RIGHT THERE - you power supply unit cannot supply a stable voltage to your video card and motherboard - it's undervolting your bus and causing GPU resets.

Go buy a 450 or 500 watt power supply and swap it out!

Alternatively buy a good brand that supplies good current on the 12V rail.

A 350W Enermax is rated for 26A for 12V... which is more than a lot of 450W PSU
