Open Gl????? what is that

[Dalarack]

Master swrod uses features only available in open Gl mode!!!!

im a noob, so what can i do to solve this

 

[evilsquirrel]

you can go into options, then the video tab...and switch to openGL

:roll:

I had this same problem, and when i went to options it told me openGL was not supported, and ms was ONLY for OpenGl???? is this true if not where can i get openGl?

First of all, you don't download OpenGL; your video card either supports it or doesn't. Chances are, if your card was made after 1995, it supports it. Driver issue perhaps? Maybe get the latest one? If not, a good format might be in order for you. Otherwise, you can play in Software mode. Looks like crap, but works.

go to tigerdirect.com and buy a nvidia video card, geforce fx 5200 works for me

http://www.newegg.com for the win

Also, I highly doubt his video card does not support OpenGL, unless he has a really really crappy onboard video card.

Alot of onboard video cards dont support opengl


My old compaq didnt... wierd i know.

Open GL CRAP!

alright... it says: This game cannot be supported in Software mode, it needs to be run in Open GL or something like that... so i change to Open GL and then it says: Invalid video mode, and then it uses software automaticly... that sux... how can i make diz shit work?

You buy a new video card. The five people or so on this planet who still actually have these ancient video cards that don't support OpenGL should burn them and buy new ones immediately.

It's worth noting, that just about all the Flex case style Dells and Gateways - usually purchased by people of little means or of stingy parents - tend to have these sort of cards that lack OpenGL built into the motherboard. It is these very people that look to HL1 mods for their gaming needs, not having much in the way of options. Seems somewhat cruel, if not self-defeating, to ignore them all.

Certainly a low priority issue, but I think it'd be worth taking a stab or two at getting the Direct X working. Bad enough they can't play NS.
