The 2.4 version worked, and then i messed up the patch process...
I then downloaded the 300mb 2.4.2... and my problems started
I've tried both the normal EXE and SDL version...
I have the video settings set to low, and the textures to lowest
The nexuiz folder is on the desktop
My specs:
Windows XP SP2
CPU: Pentium 4, 1.6ghz,
Motherboard: Acer S81M

...anything else i need to put up?

[Creoignus]

Hey, I don't quad-post!

Well, I don't know much about my computer. It came to me refurbished and I'm not sure what the video card is... oh, here it is:
SiS 315_315E
32 mb internal RAM

Heck, I've never heard of that type of card before...

For the record, I got my first version of nexuiz from an Australian PC User DVD. That was version 2.4, and it worked absolutely 100% fine. Well, except for the fact that an annoying little yellow box floated around the screen telling me to update, lol

Well sorry it's a horrible card for nexuiz. Unfortunately the engine change included with the 2.4.2 version cause the problem with your card.
A work around is to use the full 2.4.2 version, but you replace nexuiz.exe by the one coming from nexuiz 2.4

[FaRReR]

So just to get this right, I swap the nexuiz.exe file from 2.4 with the one from 2.4.2
And I have all of the 2.4.2 stuff but the 2.4 nexuiz.exe in place of the 2.4.2 version

[The mysterious Mr. 4m]

the other way around. no, wait, yes.

edit: override 2.4.2 exe with 2.4 exe

(and that works??)

Nexuiz 2.4.2 is the hotfix version of 2.4, there wasn't many gamecode change (related to the game). Most change was in the engine (rendering, prediction code, etc.). So the engine from 2.4 can still run, I think, the 2.4.2 gamecode (not much different than 2.4). The only problem I see is when Nexuiz 2.5 will be released, playing on the new servers can be not fully compatible.
