    No idea, since it doesn't happen to us.

    The FAQ item does not apply to you - it only applies when joining an internet server.

    Try the following:
    • delete data/config.cfg and try again
    • update your video drivers
    • try the 2.0.1pre patch (see Development forum)


    BTW, which graphics card and operating system are you using?
    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.

  • Sorry but i can not see a weapon in that screenshot. Your shot just shows the basic menu and to be honest i do not understand what you did afterwards..
    It might be best if you go to the german forum Urmel posted and try to explain what you did. Along with your system configuration and other things you might find useful.

  • Well, to close this thread:

    Norf dude has a HP Pavillon T3434 PC with an ATI Radeon Express 200 running with Win XP SP2. In the BIOS setup it wasnt possible to give the VGA more than 64MB RAM. I told him to contact the HP support, what he allegedly did and allegedly was told his warranty is lost because he already entered setup :shock: Nice story.

    So I still don't know does HP just lie when indicating "up to 256MB" on the product specifications, is there kinda bug in the system setup or whatever. Woud be grateful if someone knows about this PC model and would tell me. Yet I don't know if Norf's VGA claims 256 or 64MB. He almost couldnt manage anything hardware-side.

    What he finally managed was to lower the video settings in the game and now he's able to play. So at least we can say the ATI Radeon Express 200 is a rare case of on Board VGA which can run Nexuiz fluently.
