February 12, 200521 yr hello I need help playing the game if anyone still has the patience to listen to people about this. Here is where I am at. I have installed the game succesfully but it does not run. When i read the CD and click on game, the program closes. Here is the most important part of all this : the technical stuff . When I do the san Hardware option : here is what it says : -----> notice the 2 failures in the [Video] part. [sWKotOR] ReportDateTime=2005-01-13 22:47:35 SysInfoVersion=v1.00.60 GameExists=1 GameVersion=v2.00.424 GameInstallLocation=C:\Program Files\LucasArts\SWKotOR2\ [OS] Name=WinXP Version=Windows XP v5.1 build 2600 Service Pack 2 Service Pack=Service Pack 2 Status=Pass [swapFiles] C:\pagefile.sys=768 [CPU] CPUCount=1 CPUSpeed=1817 CPUFamily=15 CPUModel=2 CPUStepping=4 CPUVendor=Intel CPUName= Intel® Pentium® 4 CPU 1.80GHz Status=Pass [Memory] RAM=512 Status=Pass [Disk Free Space] C: (NTFS), UNICODE=48.09GB Status=Pass [CD-ROMs] DriveLetters=D:\ Drives=LG CD-ROM CRD-8522B [Video] Video Card Name=3Dlabs Oxygen VX1 (AGP) Video Memory=64 Desktop Resolution=1024x768x32 @ 75Hz DirectX=DirectX 9.0c (4.09.00.0904) OpenGL Version=1.1.0 OpenGL Vendor=Microsoft Corporation OpenGL Renderer=GDI Generic Vid Card Status=Fail <------------------------------ Vid Card Driver Status=Pass GL Status=Fail <------------------------------ DX Status=Pass [Audio] Sound Card Name=CMI8738/C3DX PCI Audio Device Status=Pass ;Game Options from swkotor2.ini [Display Options] FullScreen=1 Disable Movies=0 Disable Intro Movies=0 Sort Modules=1 Width=640 Height=480 BitsPerPixels=32 RefreshRate=60 [sound Options] Number 3D Voices=16 Number 2D Voices=24 2D3D Bias=0.50 Force Software=0 EAX=0 Sound Init=0 Disable Sound=0 [Graphics Options] EnableHardwareMouse=1 FullScreen=0 RefreshRate=60 Width=800 Height=600 V-Sync=0 Texture Quality=2 Anti Aliasing=0 [Game Options] Disable Movies=0 [config] firstrun=0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What the scan hardware option suggest's me to do is this : I need Non-Windows Genric openGL 1.4.0 drivers for the GL status failure. And for the Vid Card status failure , they say that the graphics required are 34mb openGL 1.4 compatible PCI or AGP 3D hardware accelerator with hardware transform and lighting (T&L) capability required. I think that this AGP 3D hardware accelerato thing might help me , but there is still this mysterious openGL 1.4.0 compatibility that is difficult to solve. I hope that some other people have solved this problem or know anything about this. I was hoping for a challenging game when I bought this one and I must say that it surpassed all my expectations ! ( sorry about the negative attitude but ! ) Thank you all in advance !
February 12, 200521 yr In the end with the Oxygen cards you are left with no luck. They are not upto snuff to play anything new. That's the hard reality of this problem. I doubt that they've made drivers, you could check the OGL consortium website http://www.opengl.org/ , but don't hold your breath. The next option is to buy another video card. Up here in Canada you can get away with a regular ATI 9600 for around $120, which will last you atleast a little while anyway.
