I Just learned that the OpenGL 2.0 option actually works(had troubles with it in past versions), and actually makes the game non laggy(as in ultra low fps) while also making the game look nice and shiny.

yes, before i was playing with OpenGL 2.0 turned off and had a terrible time with lag.

So any ways.....
While the game runs smoothly on mac osx 10.4.11, i notice many bugs with the game(graphically while playing with the option mentioned above). The screen becomes distorted or turns fully black, graphics torn, etc. This is pretty bad and i dont know why its happening, i have tried turning certain settings off and on but i have had no luck with getting these bugs to go away.

1.82ghs intel mac, 2GB, 124mb vram.

i play on a low res, 800x600 to keep a steady fps with high settings on.

Any support on this? Me and my brother would like to see this fixed......
thanks in advance,
James

Is the tearing you are experiencing similar to what is shown in the center of this screenshot? : http://sourceforge.net/tracker/download.php?group_id=81584&atid=563407&file_id=268654&aid=1905037

Its hard to tell whats going on in that screen but i'd say yes, shall i upload a screen of what i see?

*Edit
Actually.... now im having trouble even enabling opengl 2.0..... it starts glitching out right when i enable it and everything goes black or all distorted. help

Huh? Who said it would work? Afaik the bugs in driver bugs still haven't been fixed, so GLSL will still be disabled everytime you start nexuiz on osx...

Well when i dont use Opengl 2.0 the game is really laggy and stutters when i even have 40fps. When i do.... it barely ever works and freaks out on most maps. Will this ever be fixed?

Ask Apple if they ever fix their OpenGL bugs...

Well can someone tell me what the Nexuiz-SDL app is? The one in the previous version actually made the game play better on my computer.... this one barely functions at all. the graphical errors happen even with the opengl 2.0 shaders off.........

So many graphic bugs
