Crispy Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Hi everyone! I'm having trouble starting the beta version 0.9 on Win7. I have 2 GPUs, Intel HD 300 and Radeon HD 6630M and with both I'm getting the error message that my GPU doesn't support OpenGL 3.0. For Radeon, it looks like this: So I googled and found out that this GPU doesn't support OpenGL. Then I tried the onboard graphics: Then I googled again, after automatically updating my drivers, and installed the latest version of the intel driver for HD 3000 manually, which, as I read in another forum, should support OpenGL until 3.1. Still the same error message. The demo version from ~june worked just fine on my laptop, so I was wondering if you changed something major in the graphics. Clientlog is in the attachments (far too many characters :P) clientlog_Tue_Oct_04_17-59-34_2016.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxelware Team koonschi Posted October 4, 2016 Boxelware Team Share Posted October 4, 2016 This is a problem with your drivers. There's a workaround though, you can try to disable the bloom of the game. In your %appdata%\Avorion folder there should be a settings.ini file. Change the bloom=true setting to bloom=false. That should fix it. We're currently working on a long-term fix, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crispy Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 Tried it, but then my intel-driver seems to crash. I just get a notification saying that my Intel driver is being restarted after crashing, even if I try the radeon gpu... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxelware Team koonschi Posted October 4, 2016 Boxelware Team Share Posted October 4, 2016 Are you sure that you've got the latest drivers and that you're actually using the radeon GPU? Can you send me a logfile of a crash when using the radeon GPU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crispy Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 Ok, seems like I fucked up big time. First of all: my hardware button for switching the gpus doesn't seem to work anymore, so you were right, of course with the radeon it's a different error message. Second: I tried to manually install the latest intel driver, after that (and while starting Avorion) my pc crashed with a bluescreen. So I reinstalled the driver I had, when I originally posted the question. Started Avorion. Bluescreen. But, the good news is: I have clientlogs of all these. :D Have fun with them, probably I'm just too silly to install a proper driver... Hm, seems like they just crashed together with my pc. They're mostly just this: Tue Oct 04 20:33:40 2016| Client started: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Avorion\bin\Avorion.exe" "--serverpath=bin/AvorionServer.exe" Tue Oct 04 20:33:40 2016| Init Steamworks... ok Tue Oct 04 20:33:41 2016| Client Beta 0.9 r6050, running on Windows 7.

Boxelware Team koonschi Posted October 4, 2016 Boxelware Team Share Posted October 4, 2016 The first two logs (chronologically) show that you didn't have a driver installed and windows was defaulting back to a generic one. Are those the ones where you installed the radeon one? If yes, my best guess is that it didn't install properly or it was the wrong driver.

Crispy Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 I didn't install any radeon driver, just intel. And the first two logs were when I tried another automatical driver update - which horribly broke, obviously. Edit: Radeon driver: date: 26.09.2011 version: 8.862.4.2000 (win tells me it's the latest version when I try to automatically update it) intel driver: date: 26.05.2015 version: 9.17.10.4229 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxelware Team koonschi Posted October 4, 2016 Boxelware Team Share Posted October 4, 2016 Can you change your GPU in the bios? I'm afraid I can't tell you much about the intel card since the output it produced is mostly garbage :/ But Intel is known for problematic drivers. If switching off the bloom doesn't make it work with the Intel card then I'm afraid you're out of luck for now :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crispy Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 I'm currently installing the original sony radeon drivers again - let's see if I can change the gpu via hardware switch again after that. I'll definetly try to switch them in the bios, too, but probably not today. Thanks for helping, I'll keep you updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crispy Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 Resetting it to the original sony radeon driver and THEN uninstalling the whole radeon driver (o.O???) apparently fixed everything. It's starting now with the radeon gpu (at least as long as I keep bloom disabled). \o/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
