Nexuiz Freezes when firing a weapon + no weapon models.

Postby Darcshadow7 » Fri Feb 13, 2009 4:39 pm

Hello, i am new to this game and just installed it several hours ago, i went to the IRC channel and asked, and they told me i would get better help here. So here i am. Well, Nexuiz can load the levels fine, but i have no weapon models and when i try to fire the weapons it thinks i have, it freezes up, and crashes. Also i am running on windows. Thanks for the help in advance. It looks like a nice game, i will hope that i can play it if a solution is submitted. :)

Most likely a problem of your graphics drivers. Intel onboard?
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

Catalyst is the name of the ATI graphics driver.

If you didn't install it but are using the drivers that came with Windows. These don't support OpenGL well.

In any case, go to http://www.ati.com/ and download the current drivers.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

Places darkplaces.exe in the same folder as nexuiz.exe and run darkplaces.exe instead.
