i cant play with opengl option activated any trick ?

i got a chipset famaly trash video.

[Melekor]

Wow, I guess the OpenGL drivers are so broken that it even fails creating the querying context.

Myth could be patched to protect against this kind of thing in the future but that is not an immediate solution. In order to fix it for you right now, the only thing I can recommend is upgrading your drivers, if you haven't already. Or get a new video card.

If you don't know how to upgrade the drivers, post the chipset name/model number here and we'll try to find the latest version for you.

[dashimir]

directx 9 all drivers are ok.

i got intel graphic media aceleratordriver for mobile and all opengl setings are custon but this stupid card dont have agp is this the problem ?

[dashimir]

i am running version 1.70 and is working but i cant activate opengl cause if i do the game crashes after the map screen.

[Melekor]

"intel graphic media accelerator" is a whole line of chipsets. (Edit: See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_GMA) What is your specific model number?

It crashes because your drivers apparently can't handle OpenGL. If you can find out your specific model, we can see if there are any updated drivers for it. If there aren't then you will be unable to use OpenGL.

[Pyro]

You said you were running 1.7.0. Do you mean 1.7.2, which is the latest, or did you downgrade? You can run Myth in Software and Direct3D, correct?

[dashimir]

correct. i downgraded reinstaling the update then some 1.70 option apeared and i instaled now the game is running . but i cant run open gl

[Pyro]

Why did you downgrade? Does 1.7.0's OpenGL work? If not, then why even downgrade? Update to the latest and try Software and Direct3D while you figure out how to upgrade your graphics drivers (directx is not the same).

Oh wait, I see you could not even load up the game. Try updating to the latest and then grab this. It has all the executables for Myth2 on Windows. That way you can try 1.7.1 and 1.7.0 without downgrading.

[dashimir]

yes the game dont even run with 1.72 and 1.70 i can play 3d and software.

my video card dont run agp this may be the problem ?

is this upgraded enought ?

Your driver is outdated.

Please download and install the driver found here: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_ ... pe=Drivers

(You will see two download buttons, pick the topmost one, for "infinst_autol.exe").

After installing and rebooting your system, try OpenGL again and let us know what happens.

[dashimir]

the came crash right after the explanation with maps.

[Pyro]

What version were you on? Did you do this after you updating the drivers as Melekor said? Can you show us a myth log after the crash?

[dashimir]

I updated the drivers as Melekor said
