OpenGL problem

[Ashura The Hedgehog]

When I played SRB2 in OpenGL the Hue was all blue and the frames per second (fps) was really slow. Can anyone help me?

Your 3d card sux. Unless you want to upgrade it, I'd suggest sticking with software. Software is better anyway.

 

[clairebun]

Software is better anyway.

In your personal opinion.

Either you need to fiddle around with the OGL menu settings or its just

Your 3d card sux.

 

[Ashura The Hedgehog]

But last time it didn't do that before. It was normal a month ago.

Something must be wrong with the rederer then.

You might want to switch to software.

Haha. Hahahahahah hahaha hhahaah haha. Ha. What a joke.

Come on guys, it doesn't take much to run OpenGL. All you need to run OpenGL good with onboard graphics is the onboard NVIDIA GeForce4 MX. Oh, but wait - We're running modern motherboards! You know, with Intel Graphics Media Accelerator? Yeah. Stealing off system memory and DirectX3 graphics is real smooth. I bet all my GeForce2 MX's I have lying around the house could run OpenGL at decent speeds.

In that case, update your video card drivers.

 

[SRB2-Playah]

Let's not have this escalate into a Software vs. OGL arguement, gents.

Anyway. Do you have any other 3D games that run on a non-Software renderer? Do they work?

 

[Ashura The Hedgehog]

Halo looks great maybe I need to update my card or something.

I guess my piece-of-crap computer in my bedroom doesn't, then. Runs windowed software pretty good, though.

 

[mariokid]

how do you make open gl run faster because for me the frames keep skipping.

 

[Sky Ninja]

You can compress r_opengl.dll & OpenGL.dll. Also, it's blue because of messed up gamma levels most likely.

 

[clairebun]

No, the gamma levels are correct. The graphics card on my old computer is old, so I have the same blue screen effect on there.

 

[SSNTails]

I would appreciate it if everyone who gets this 'blue' problem tell me what video card they're using.

 

[Sik]

Maybe the one of the executables (not just the EXE, DLLs are also executables :P) is damaged or something. Try reinstalling those files, because if you didn't do anything when that happened, then the problem must be some file that got damanged.

And also, it isn't that the hue is blue, it's that the red channel is turned off. As once I said, reminder to STJr, put an explicit glColorMask(GL_TRUE, GL_TRUE, GL_TRUE, GL_TRUE) when initializing OpenGL :P Maybe that fixes it up.

 

[Princess Plushima]

The few times I was able to run OpenGL I got a similar "Yellow" effect. Intentionally making the gamma levels incorrect fixed it.

Onboard Intel graphics chipsets and most video cards running the default Windows drivers have the problem.

 

[Zanyhead]

I tried OpenGL on a computer with no video card, and I got this same effect.

 

[mariokid]

i have been using opengl and it keep freezes. should I update my sound driver

 

[Shadow Hog]

Yes, because updating your sound driver is definitely going to fix a problem with your graphics card.
