 |
|
I am having a problem when trying to running Enemy Territory. Originally I was clicking on the icon and my screen just flashed and the game did not start, then I started it from command line and it said | Quote: | ***********************************************************
You are using software Mesa (no hardware acceleration)!
Driver DLL used: libGL.so.1
If this is intentional, add
"+set r_allowSoftwareGL 1"
to the command line when starting the game.
***********************************************************
...WARNING: could not set the given mode (4)
Initializing OpenGL display

XFree86-VidModeExtension Activated at 640x480
Received signal 11, exiting...

So I typed in "et +set r_allowSoftwareGL 1" and the game started up. But the game was so laggy from even the starting screen when I wasn't on the net for a game that it is pretty much impossible to get a good game in. This perplexes me a lot because this same computer ran Half Life 2 very fast back when it ran Windows XP. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the "+set r_allowSoftwareGL 1". Does anyone know what I could do to make the game run quickly enough? |
