Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Re: OpenGL error on Win XP SP3.
« on: November 04, 2010, 02:51:35 pm »
Well thanks for all the help guys. :)

Tried all sorts of things to get it to work, reinstalled quite a few times and tried all that stuff with the delete file and repair/update OpenAL.
Also changed the options in the launcher everytime I pressed play.

It still crashes. I hope that in future releases I will be able to get back to this gem of a game, I love it. Darn you computer!

Thanks again and good luck. :)

Update: I'll also continue playing around with the settings and check the forums when I have some free time, maybe the solution will present itself here or I'll have a stroke of luck and manage to make it work. :)

Update:

I uninstalled the game, cleaned up my computer, ran a defrag, reinstalled the game. Now I got rid of the OpenGL error, bad news is it still crashes whenever I press play, also I get this error now.

C:\DOCUME~1\MARAUD~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\b237_appcompat.txt

The game just starts and in 1 fraction of a second the screen goes gray, moving me to the desktop and the error send window. Once I press cancel I get the "quit unexpectedly" happy happy joy joy window.

psclient_static is also one of the reasons of the crash alternating between the error up there and these ones:

C:\DOCUME~1\MARAUD~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\WER433b.dir00\psclient.exe.mdmp
C:\DOCUME~1\MARAUD~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\WER433b.dir00\appcompat.txt

Thanks for the info Elvicat, I personally haven't had any problems with my video card up till now.

I wonder, does the game update corectly or did I get the wrong installer?

Thanks.

Indeed - always get the original from the manufacturer!

http://www.nvidia.com/page/drivers.html -- or your local site. Latest WHQL drivers should be version 260.99 these days.

I see. I did get the update from the official Nvidia site of course, why just this morning I upgraded to 260.99 before installing Planeshift.

Hm, maybe I need to reinstall the game again. Just to be sure. :)

Thanks for the info!

Hello, I'm a returning player to Planeshift. I took a long break and during it I upgraded my computer's graphics card and RAM.

My problem is as follows: I get an OpenGL error after I press play stating that I need to upgrade my drivers. I just recently updated them yet I still get the error.

Detailed info about my rig:

- Windows XP Home Edition SP3.
- Procesor Intel Core 2 CPU @ 1,86 GHZ.
- 3 GB RAM.
- Nvidia GeForce GTS 250 video card.

Any help in getting the game to work would be greatly appreciated. Also if you need any additional information I would be more than happy to comply.
