vertex shader

shrimp_girl · 09-16-2006, 07:41 AM

Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me out. Been playing gunz for quite a while now, but haved moved and my desktops been replaced with a laptop. I wasnt expecting miracles, but I though Id try playing gunz on it.

First time it ran there was an error (i think) about being unable to initialise the vertex shader. I assumed and still assume thats its purely because trying to run the game off a graphics card which uses shared memory just isnt going to work. Theres neither the power nor the technology.

I went into the config.xml and turned all the options way down, to maybe help. Like I said I wasnt expecting miracles anyway - playing at 640x480 would be better than nothing. That didnt change anything. The actual problem is that the program starts (both with and without the launcher), launches xtrap, creates a full screen black window, then almost immediately disappears and xtrap unloads aswell.

Any thoughts, heres the mlog.txt, in case its of any help:

Thanks for any help. And yes I did have a look at the stickys, but they are ingame problems for the most part.

Direct X 9.0c.

If your OS isn't original, you still can get it from www.download.com.
