Hello everybody.

I've some problems running GPL with openGL V2. Specifically, all the navigations in the words in the menus are not readable, the "live view" of the track and navigation through menus are very slow and there are frequent crashes to desktop.

I send a pic illustrating the fonts problem. This particular picture is under Linux, but the same happens under Windows (maybe less marked, though).

Thanks for any help and I'm sorry if it was treated in other thread (not found by me).

EDIT: I'm running GPL in a laptop with intel i7 processor and an integrated HD4500 "GPU".

Cheers, Marcos.

I'm pretty sure that you need to update the driver for your graphics card.  There must be some kind of corruption.

Marcos, I'd try taking out the video card and try to play GPL with the integrated video card on your motherboard. If the game isn't alright, the fault might be drivers or windows itself. If it is alright, then it's the video card that's telling you it's time to replace it.

Thanks both

I tried with two computers, both with integrated graphic cards (Intel HD series) but with the same installation. Just copied all the GPL directory from one another... Maybe I should reinstall entire GPL...

I think your problem is the intel graphics driver!

As far as I found, it is not made for gaming and it has no good support...especially for linux!

How does it look in 3D7V2?

[mcmirande]

Menus look and work perfect with directX v2. Also, the "live cam" visible from the menus runs flawless. But... when into the track, fps are lower than in OGL v2.

[Pete Gaimari]

I get the same thing, but even though the fps are higher with OGL I get some stutters.

I also get screen flickering and the mouse pointer disapears when going back to menu from in game using openglv2.
I found a workaround : I have "yakuake" installed on my KDE desktop. It's a terminal emulator that opens through F12 key shortcut. If I open/close it, I get back to a full usable menu

With d3dv2 the buttons dont work in menu.

I have the mousepointer lost when going back to menu from in game with NVidia GPU.
I just switch to tty2 (ctrl+alt+ right/left) and back to get it back

[KOSletten]

I'm having the same issue with the menu pages as mcmirande's attached screen grab, using Open GL V2.
New install of GPL on pc with i7 8700 and GTX 1080TI Nvidia driver version 416.34
D3D works but not a the resolution I want to run...triple screen at 7680 x 1440

I've tried everything I could find here on SRMZ for Nvidia and GEM settings but so far I have not hit on the right combo.

Anybody else have this issue and were able to fix it?

Thanks,
KO

Hi All,
I had this, I fixed it by turning off Antiailising - FXAA in the Nvidea Control Panel.

TTFN
John.

[KOSletten]

Thanks John, but unfortunately it doesn't fix the problem for me.

[mcmirande]

I had and still have that problem when I run GPL on linux and openglV2. I haven't a Nvida card.
So I guess it's a different issue...

With Linux and Wine you have some issues with OpenGL fonts or with the OpenGL drivers for X.
Have you checked this with fonts: https://wiki.archlin....php/wine#Fonts

Just a try to help

Thanks! I'll test it!

[mcmirande]

Hello everybody. I still have the same problems with Linux+GPL: 1) too low fps under direct3d and unresponsive menus under ogl and 2) no support for H-stick.

Was there some improvement I don't know.

Also I've 2 comments: 1) the link provided by Bernd didn't gave me a solution and 2) what a high correlation between 67x-ers and linux-ers!!

Cheers. Marcos

does all of those that post here are under Linux ?

because it seems most of us aren't experiencing those bugs ( Win 7 32 and N vidia drivers, here )

Yes! I'm sorry... the title is wrong. My Win7 installation works flawlessly.

No problem, and thank you for the info

I think you can edit the topic title.
