check your facts before you make a statement like that natrob87.

Hi again... :)

First of all to let you know that with the laptop the game runs perfectly...obviously the problem with the desktop it's the video card :cry:

Next I do everything that "esteel" told me...step by step. The offset mapping was disable by default I did nothing on that step, next the vertex buffers, play and still the same, next glsl, etc... and the problems continued, so next I went to the shortcut but I could not change it because it gives me the following error: "The name specified in the destination path is invalid. Check if the path and filename are correct"
For sure I did wrong :oops:
-First I tried to put it this way...C:\Program files\Nexuiz.exe notexturenonpoweroftwo -then apply=error
-Then I tried this way...C:\Program files\Nexuiz notexturenonpoweroftwo.exe -then apply= error

I don't know, if I made something silly excuse my inexperience, finally... could you tell me exactly the right way? :oops:

Anyway I got the laptop...if you think that the problem with the desktop has no meaning I'll stop, but if you think there is an alternative solution to changing the video card, well I'll be able to test it...

In any case, thank you very much to all of you :D ...

Well i'm not totally sure were you installed your nexuiz (and i also do not use windows in private, and at work a non-english version of it.. so maybe i mistranslated the 'target') but i'll try to explain it better.

If you create that shortcut and rightclick and then properties your get a dialog that should say on one line:

c:/program files/Nexuiz/nexuiz.exe

just turn it into
c:/program files/Nexuiz/nexuiz.exe -notexturenonpoweroftwo
and later then into:
c:/program files/Nexuiz/nexuiz.exe -notexturenonpoweroftwo -noocclusionquery

Were do you have nexuiz installed? Is that path correct? I just gave you an example..
Really if you create that shortcut everything should be correct... just ADD those two words and make sure there is a space after the .exe ...

how I did it...

Postby cosecti » Fri Apr 17, 2009 12:31 pm

Ok, I make a screen capture about all the process step by step... now you can see if I'm doing something wrong :wink: you can see the screen capture here:

http://www.screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cQfbhle4P

I was thinking that mybe should paste that words on the original.exe against the shortcut, or mybe on both :roll: I don't know I'm just trying to figure out something... or mybe you just can do this on linux but not on windows ¿?

Well let me know if I'm doing things wrong :? ...I'll be around, thanks for help. :)

LOL, nice thingy..
But you got me wrong
make it: "....\nexuiz.exe" -notexturenonpoweroftwo
Well maybe i was a bit unclear.. but on german windows there is no space in that path name and thus no " " ..

Problem report...

Postby cosecti » Sat Apr 18, 2009 8:59 am

Hi there, I got news for you, good and bad, the good one is that finally I could make the "thing" with the shortcut, the bad news is that the problem persists, I can only see the map but no players and items. I tried first with the -notexturenonpoweroftwo, play but it doesn't works, and then I tried the other, and both were applied to the two shortcuts and tasted.

Mybe I'll should take a look to the DSN - Damn Small Nexuiz for Windows...I don't know

Well, thank you all once again. :? I'll be around.

I must confess i'm out of idea at the moment for what might be the reason that 2.5 does not like your hardware. As i said, there have only been a few rendering related changes. Well the 'most brutal' way is the
Code: Select all
-safe
startup paramter. With that it should basicly run for sure but it also disables lots of stuff thats used to make rendering faster. But can you try it? If it does work we can go on from there and find out whats the evil thing :)
