Elstavido Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 I cannot use the Ebon Hawk to travel to any other planets. What happens is, I go to the Galaxy Map, say from Dxun, select any other planet, and click "travel" . The game then quickly goes to a black screen, followed by the game menu (eg; new Game, Load game, etc.) I am unable to select any of the options, I believe the game froze. I alt+tab out, and close it via Task Manager. It will not work going to any other planet, and my escape route of using the warp commands no longer works.
Sturm Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 whats your specs, do you get any microsoft error messages?
vaxen83 Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 Might be graphics card. Try disabling movies from configuration options. Might be easier if game settings are at minimum. Deep from within... Victims live a life of fantasy. Some see salvation as an act of God, a few look within for it. 朱宣澧
Elstavido Posted July 29, 2006 Author Posted July 29, 2006 Thanks for the replies, I have disabled movies already, I even uninstalled and reinstalled, however I found that I can go to Nar Shaddaa, so i'll probably try playing from there and see what happens, other then that I don't understand this at all.

vaxen83 Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 (edited) Actually, if you have Kotor 2 box with you, supported graphics card might put something like following: Radeon X300, X600, X700, X800. Believe that yours is X1800. Helps to have a graphics card that is supported with game. Otherwise, your other system settings generally exceed minimum requirements of K2 by quite a bit. Just my suggestion, but could be due to that which is why game might not be able to run during some parts, especially where running CG movies are involved. Might be why warning message appears. Has this happened before, or is this first time? Edited July 29, 2006 by vaxen83 Deep from within... Victims live a life of fantasy. Some see salvation as an act of God, a few look within for it. 朱宣澧
Elstavido Posted July 29, 2006 Author Posted July 29, 2006 Yeah, I realize it wasn't one of the supported cards, but the game ran so *shrug*, I kinda figured that was why I got the warning but wasn't sure. This is the first time I've had such problems in game such as not being able to travel, as for getting the warning on hardware scan, no its been like that since I installed
Hassat Hunter Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 Not quite familiar with the Radeon nummering... How old is a X1800? And your Athlon 3500+; is that a dual-core? If so shutting down one of the cores might fix alot of issues encountered... ^ I agree that that is such a stupid idiotic pathetic garbage hateful retarded scumbag evil satanic nazi like term ever created. At least top 5. TSLRCM Official Forum || TSLRCM Moddb || My other KOTOR2 mods || TSLRCM (English version) on Steam || [M4-78EP on Steam Formerly known as BattleWookiee/BattleCookiee
vaxen83 Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 (edited) Believe that its probably a bit current than what game might recognise. However, might want to continue trying out your game. If it still works, then could leave it. Otherwise, could be graphics card issue. Could also follow H.H's suggestion. Edited July 29, 2006 by vaxen83 Deep from within...

Sturm Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 Vid Card Status=Warning Go to ati.com, download the ATI catalyst if you dont already have it
Alec Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 The X1800 is one of the latest video cards but I can't understand how it can have 1GB memory?! Dual Core processors usually do affect some game issues but mine runs perfectly. It seems that these K2 bugs are getting more than we expected and always stranger every day...
Hassat Hunter Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 Vid Card Status=Warning Go to ati.com, download the ATI catalyst if you dont already have it If it was a driver issue; one of the following would give warnings... Vid Card Driver Status= GL Status= NOT Vid Card Status The X1800 is one of the latest video cards but I can't understand how it can have 1GB memory?! Kotor is really bad in detecting Radeon cards properly. Apparently that got fixed in Kotor1 with the 1.2 patch; but Kotor2 never fixed it. The card warning means nothing... just that the card is not known. My GeForce 6600GT generates the same warning with Kotor1 due to it's "new-ness" Dual Core processors usually do affect some game issues but mine runs perfectly Despite it might look running flawless; did you try shutting off one core during playing; to see if it resolved anything? ^ I agree that that is such a stupid idiotic pathetic garbage hateful retarded scumbag evil satanic nazi like term ever created.

Alec Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 I did but it worked the same... actually worse cos I didn't have the support of the second CPU to boost my game power.
Sturm Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 I agree with the KotOR2 thing picking up Graphics Cards wrongly, Because it detected my 128mb Radeon 9200SE as a 256mb Card.
TechBWE Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 It picks up my X1900GT 256meg as a 512 meg Only time I have problems zoning is if a mod has been incorrectly installed or there is a problem with the modded zone.
Alec Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 Like Hassat said: ATI cards are a bit funny... and the game doesn't detect them well. The NVidia ones are much more accurate.
Alec Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 NVidia are much better for games, but they are almost equal otherwise.
