G400Max + 5.25 + beta OGL + GPL = segfault

by n.. » Sun, 03 Oct 1999 04:00:00

Hello

Is it just me ? I just bought a G400 Max and I can't seem to get Grand
Prix Legends to run. Of course the game ran well on my voodoo1 card, but
I don't have it anymore.

I installed the aforementioned drivers configuration, then the beta2 OGL
rasterizer and whenever I start GPL I get a segfault in glu32.dll right
away.

Anybody has any clue on what's wrong ? I heard other people complain
about graphics errors, so it means that at least they got it to run...

TIA

Marco

Indeed, I have the game running on at tnt bases board. It looks and drivers
great, now I can see the speed that I am driving, witch I could not with my
old pc at 16 fps or so.

My only problem with the ogl beta1 and beta2 drivers is that I can not get a
use full picture in my mirrors, so I have pulled down the drawing rate for
the mirrors so now I almost get no pictures in them and the once that do
look very wrong.

I am can not realy tell you mutch about what you should do, exept ready the
txt files that comes with the beta and try to change some of the settings.

Greetings Maikel.

  Can't say this will help, but I saw a web demo of N3 using a G400 and
in the car it looked and ran great.  When they went to outside, the
frame-rate dropped dramatically, and all sorts of texture problems
started flashing all over the screen.  Kinda the opposite of gpl's TNT
problems.

I haven't heard of anyone getting OpenGL GPL to work on a Matrox card.

Matrox wrote a beta D3D GPL rasterizer for the G200.  That's probably
what you heard people complaining about.
