How to set opengl in TGE 1.5demo?

by Sammy · in General Discussion · 12/09/2006 (5:13 pm) · 4 replies

Hi all,

1. I tested TGE 1.5 demo. I could not select opengl driver, only D3D. Why?
In TGE 1.4, I could select either opengl or D3D.

2. I found that the mirror in D3D mode could not see the reflection, like a solid wood.
Why?

3. When I switch between full screen and windowed mode, the gui text does not display correctly. Why?

Thanks in advance

D3D mode currently has some issues with it such as the mirror issue you describe. As far as why OpenGL doesn't seem to show up, what is the video card you are using and have you downloaded and installed the latest drivers for it?

Hi Kenneth Holst,

I have downloaded the latest driver of Geforce FX-5200 and still could not set opengl mode in TGE 1.5 demo.

???

Look in your console.log file. It should show both ...

Also you might try reinstalling directX after this last driver update.

Hi all,

It works now!
Just uninstall the demo and reinstall again.
(Maybe I did not uninstall Torque shader demo before install TGE 1.5 demo.
Both of them use the same directory)

Thanks a lot.
