Can you show me the contents of the help dialog, where the graphics card manufacturer and opengl extensions are shown? This sounds rather like a driver issue as the OpenGL windows obviously fail to initialise. |
 |
Yes, help dialog? I know for a fact that my Laptop is an inspiron 1525, and the opengl drivers have been untouched. If you need more information, I'll be near my laptop later, maybe then I can give you more details... |
|
|
I was referring to the Help > About dialog in the menu. |

Here is my window: http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/2295/darkradiant.jpg And here is what my opengl extensions are: GL_ARB_depth_texture GL_ARB_fragment_program GL_ARB_multitexture GL_ARB_occlusion_query GL_ARB_point_parameters GL_ARB_shadow GL_ARB_texture_border_clamp GL_ARB_texture_compression GL_ARB_texture_cube_map GL_ARB_texture_env_add GL_ARB_texture_env_combine GL_ARB_texture_env_dot3 GL_ARB_texture_env_crossbar GL_ARB_transpose_matrix GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object GL_ARB_vertex_program GL_ARB_window_pos GL_EXT_abgr GL_EXT_bgra GL_EXT_blend_color GL_EXT_blend_func_separate GL_EXT_blend_minmax GL_EXT_blend_subtract GL_EXT_clip_volume_hint GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_array GL_EXT_draw_range_elements GL_EXT_fog_coord GL_EXT_multi_draw_arrays GL_EXT_packed_pixels GL_EXT_rescale_normal GL_EXT_secondary_color GL_EXT_separate_specular_color GL_EXT_shadow_funcs GL_EXT_stencil_two_side GL_ARB_texture_rectangle GL_EXT_texture_rectangle GL_EXT_stencil_wrap GL_EXT_texture_compression_s3tc GL_EXT_texture_env_add GL_EXT_texture_env_combine GL_EXT_texture_lod_bias GL_EXT_texture_filter_anisotropic GL_EXT_texture3D GL_3DFX_texture_compression_FXT1 GL_IBM_texture_mirrored_repeat GL_NV_blend_square GL_NV_texgen_reflection GL_SGIS_generate_mipmap GL_SGIS_texture_edge_clamp GL_SGIS_texture_lod GL_WIN_swap_hint They're a little jumbled up, sorry about that... |
|

Hm, I don't spot anything, though I must admit that I don't know the actual required extensions by heart. I notice that you're running an Intel card, though I cannot say whether this is a problem. I'd suggest trying to upgrade your drivers, maybe it's an issue specific to the card/driver combination, but I understand that this is a hassle for you. |
|
|
Oh my, this sounds like too much. Say, can you come over to my house and help me install the drivers... =)) Actually, I just installed the latest drivers a little bit ago, and, sadly, nothing happened, I'm in the same state as I was when the drivers were older... I think that it might just be that darkradiant has a problem with my intel 965gm gpu... which bites bad... |
 |
How are you running Doom 3 with that GPU? |
|
|
Haha, I expected somebody to bring that up. Despite what most people think, the 965gm graphics card is actually not given any justice. Simply set an application to run in realtime, and use this hack to change a few things around for the games rendering system: http://www.scribd.com/doc/445736/Doom-3-Speed-Up-Guaranteed-40-Better (Heck, Half Life 2 works even better... and tho I haven't tried it myself, I recently heard that the gpu would meet the bare minimum standard requirements of Crysis, with a few parts frame-jumping, of course) I tried using the texture cache in the doomconfig file, but the game would crash when I tried using it. |
|
|
Maybe this'll be solved in the next update... maybe? |
|
|
Well, you're over-estimating our options to address this, I think. :) As I don't have access to any notebook with that kind of graphics card, let alone installing my debugging environment on there, what do you expect me to do? I'm not even sure I can do anything about it, whether it isn't a driver issue or something else in our code. Does GtkRadiant work on your system? |
|
|
Sorry, its just that I understand the budget (there is none) of these type of projects, and its best I let the development team carry on and maybe they'll indirectly reverse these problems in later releases, or someone who has my built in gpu with more experience will help... ... Let me try gtkradiant and get back to you on that, though. |

When you open DarkRadiant, open the console do you have any warnings in the console window? Just a thought EDIT: Also, that's not a lot of extensions either, for example DarkRadiant reports this on my laptop: GL_ARB_color_buffer_float GL_ARB_depth_buffer_float GL_ARB_depth_texture GL_ARB_draw_buffers GL_ARB_draw_instanced GL_ARB_fragment_program GL_ARB_fragment_program_shadow GL_ARB_fragment_shader GL_ARB_half_float_pixel GL_ARB_half_float_vertex GL_ARB_framebuffer_object GL_ARB_geometry_shader4 GL_ARB_imaging GL_ARB_map_buffer_range GL_ARB_multisample GL_ARB_multitexture GL_ARB_occlusion_query GL_ARB_pixel_buffer_object GL_ARB_point_parameters GL_ARB_point_sprite GL_ARB_shadow GL_ARB_shader_objects GL_ARB_shading_language_100 GL_ARB_texture_border_clamp GL_ARB_texture_buffer_object GL_ARB_texture_compression GL_ARB_texture_cube_map GL_ARB_texture_env_add GL_ARB_texture_env_combine GL_ARB_texture_env_dot3 GL_ARB_texture_float GL_ARB_texture_mirrored_repeat GL_ARB_texture_non_power_of_two GL_ARB_texture_rectangle GL_ARB_texture_rg GL_ARB_transpose_matrix GL_ARB_vertex_array_object GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object GL_ARB_vertex_program GL_ARB_vertex_shader GL_ARB_window_pos GL_ATI_draw_buffers GL_ATI_texture_float GL_ATI_texture_mirror_once GL_S3_s3tc GL_EXT_texture_env_add GL_EXT_abgr GL_EXT_bgra GL_EXT_blend_color GL_EXT_blend_equation_separate GL_EXT_blend_func_separate GL_EXT_blend_minmax GL_EXT_blend_subtract GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_array GL_EXT_Cg_shader GL_EXT_bindable_uniform GL_EXT_depth_bounds_test GL_EXT_direct_state_access GL_EXT_draw_buffers2 GL_EXT_draw_instanced GL_EXT_draw_range_elements GL_EXT_fog_coord GL_EXT_framebuffer_blit GL_EXT_framebuffer_multisample GL_EXT_framebuffer_object GL_EXTX_framebuffer_mixed_formats GL_EXT_framebuffer_sRGB GL_EXT_geometry_shader4 GL_EXT_gpu_program_parameters GL_EXT_gpu_shader4 GL_EXT_multi_draw_arrays GL_EXT_packed_depth_stencil GL_EXT_packed_float GL_EXT_packed_pixels GL_EXT_pixel_buffer_object GL_EXT_point_parameters GL_EXT_provoking_vertex GL_EXT_rescale_normal GL_EXT_secondary_color GL_EXT_separate_specular_color GL_EXT_shadow_funcs GL_EXT_stencil_two_side GL_EXT_stencil_wrap GL_EXT_texture3D GL_EXT_texture_array GL_EXT_texture_buffer_object GL_EXT_texture_compression_latc GL_EXT_texture_compression_rgtc GL_EXT_texture_compression_s3tc GL_EXT_texture_cube_map GL_EXT_texture_edge_clamp GL_EXT_texture_env_combine GL_EXT_texture_env_dot3 GL_EXT_texture_filter_anisotropic GL_EXT_texture_integer GL_EXT_texture_lod GL_EXT_texture_lod_bias GL_EXT_texture_mirror_clamp GL_EXT_texture_object GL_EXT_texture_sRGB GL_EXT_texture_swizzle GL_EXT_texture_shared_exponent GL_EXT_timer_query GL_EXT_vertex_array GL_EXT_vertex_array_bgra GL_IBM_rasterpos_clip GL_IBM_texture_mirrored_repeat GL_KTX_buffer_region GL_NV_blend_square GL_NV_copy_depth_to_color GL_NV_depth_buffer_float GL_NV_conditional_render GL_NV_depth_clamp GL_NV_explicit_multisample GL_NV_fence GL_NV_float_buffer GL_NV_fog_distance GL_NV_fragment_program GL_NV_fragment_program_option GL_NV_fragment_program2 GL_NV_framebuffer_multisample_coverage GL_NV_geometry_shader4 GL_NV_gpu_program4 GL_NV_half_float GL_NV_light_max_exponent GL_NV_multisample_coverage GL_NV_multisample_filter_hint GL_NV_occlusion_query GL_NV_packed_depth_stencil GL_NV_parameter_buffer_object GL_NV_pixel_data_range GL_NV_point_sprite GL_NV_primitive_restart GL_NV_register_combiners GL_NV_register_combiners2 GL_NV_texgen_reflection GL_NV_texture_compression_vtc GL_NV_texture_env_combine4 GL_NV_texture_expand_normal GL_NV_texture_rectangle GL_NV_texture_shader GL_NV_texture_shader2 GL_NV_texture_shader3 GL_NV_transform_feedback GL_NV_vertex_array_range GL_NV_vertex_array_range2 GL_NV_vertex_program GL_NV_vertex_program1_1 GL_NV_vertex_program2 GL_NV_vertex_program2_option GL_NV_vertex_program3 GL_NVX_conditional_render GL_NV_vertex_buffer_unified_memory GL_NV_shader_buffer_load GL_SGIS_generate_mipmap GL_SGIS_texture_lod GL_SGIX_depth_texture GL_SGIX_shadow GL_SUN_slice_accum GL_WIN_swap_hint WGL_EXT_swap_control Also my version of OpenGL is 3.0, you are running 1.5.0, can you find updated OpenGL drivers? |
|
|
Sorry for the slow update: You have an inspiron 1525 (or at least an intel 965gm)? I find that a little strange, as I cant seem to find any drivers for my computer that upate opengl beyond 1.5 |
|
|
No I'm sorry I meant that my graphics card supports many more extensions because it's newer: Nvidia 8700M GT Here, run this: http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/detect.htm |

http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&releaseid=R180254&SystemID=INS_PNT_PM_1525&servicetag=&os=WLH&osl=en&deviceid=12618&devlib=0&typecnt=0&vercnt=2&catid=-1&impid=-1&formatcnt=1&libid=6&fileid=245580 the utility was of no help. It sent me straight back to dell, whose driver I had already installed was of no help before, and connecting the dots, I doubt it would help to try again... |

This got posted in our forums by another user with the same card: http://modetwo.net/darkmod/index.php?s=&showtopic=9082&view=findpost&p=185825 |

Bump for status. Will set this issue to resolved within two weeks. |
|
|
Eh, it's unresolved for me. Version 0.10.0 is having the same problem. |
|
|
Oh, it runs a bit deeper... the built in doom 3 editor accessed through the in-game console is also experiencing a similar problem, though swap clear with white. |
|
|
Hmm, well I did find something that might work: GLDirect, which had been shareware for a while, but was later released as free. However, when I installed it, I needed the registration key the creators supplied when they abandoned it: Check! But when trying to enter the keycode, it said it was wrong even though I'm certain it's the correct key. After all, I've found it everywhere... Oh well, if somebody could try that program out, could they send it's unlocked executable my way? It's not like that would be illegal, as it's creators have long since made it free. |

This is most probably a driver issue or a matter of unsupported openGL extensions. Closed until further notice. |
