Ok,
I have New OpenGL Drivers for my moms video card, I have installed Alpha 13 and the update acording to the Installation guide. But I am still getting the same error that says download the new drivers for your video card. I have a GForce 5200 and that should run Alpha 13 without any problems but it keeps giving me that same error. PLEASE HELP.
Im getting sick of this game giving me that Error everytime I try it on other computers that I know the video card can handle the game.... Somethings wrong with the install or something.
PLEASE HELP.

It happens in both alpha 13 and alpha 14? What OS are you running? Can you run other OpenGL games?
-
Im running Windows XP Pro, And yes other OpenGL Games work just not DP.
Can you make a mirror so I may download Alpha 10or12 ? I think they are the best ones personally.
-Termin8oR
-
I Just re-installed DP Alpha 14 exactly as the install guide says to and it is still giving me the same problem...
Something isnt working like it should be.

Does build 13 work without the build 14 update?
-
no, build 13 with its update and build 14 with its update doesnt work, build 13 doesnt work with 14's update either... ive tryed many things, just not working.... can you post alpha 10 or 11 please... i like them better! :D
I dont need new features untill new player models but i can just update the older ones!
PLEASE JITSPOE!
-Termin8oR
-
Don't do any updates. Just install build 13 clean and fresh. See if it works. If not, try build 12:

Ok, Thankz Jitspoe.... I will try it.
Thank You Again

Alpha 13 didnt work, so im trying Alpha 12 now... and gamespy is taking forever to load the file, they are slow today or something.
-Termin8oR
-
Alpha 12 is giving me an Error.
Windows XP Error saying: paintball2.exe ha performed an illegal error.
What do I do now Jitspoe?
-Termin8oR
-
Try 10 I guess? Do any of the builds work?

-
Im currently trying Alpha 10, if it doesnt work is there a quake2 standalone without needing quake2 installed?
-Termin8oR
-
Yes Termi there is.......Do you want?
The Price is to tell your father and brother hello for me.
-
Alpha 14 will work fine with a 5200, and if you're having problems all the way back to alpha 10, something must be wrong with your drivers. Are you sure you installed them properly?
Use this driver:
http://download.nvidia.com/Windows/77.72/77.72_win2kxp_english_whql.exe
-
I Know my drivers are correct and everything is running right, just something isnt running right.
Loial dad and brother say "Hello" and where can I download this Quake2 DP Standalone? (WITHOUT INSTALLING QUAKE2)
-Termin8oR
-
everything is running right, just something isnt running right.
hehe.
What opengl games can you run?
-
Dont know, only play Digital Paintball! :D
-Termin8oR
-
Did you try installing the drivers from the link I gave you? I still think your drivers aren't installed properly.
-
I tryed the drivers from the link you gave, but still same problem. I still cannont play DP :(
Is there a quake2 standalone for DP that does not need quake2 installed on my computer? If so please make a link for me to download it, PLEASE.
-Termin8oR
-
Um, you already have the standalone...
Try glsetup -- it automatically detects and installs drivers for you: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download383.html
Not sure if it still works or not, but it's worth a shot.
Edit: scratch that. The thing is ancient -- only works with win9x, lol.
Edit2: Try this. Right-click on the desktop, go to "Properties" then the "Settings" tab and click on the "Advanced..." button. See if there's a Geforce FX tab on there. If not, you didn't install the drivers properly. Make sure you have administrator rights when installing drivers.

I have a version of q2 that does not require anything from the user other than clicking on the quake 2 icon.
-
Great, but I need to be able to play DP and download maps and such without having quake2 installed on my PC.
-Termin8oR
-
Oh thats what the problem is jitspoe, my mom hasnt given me administrator rights, grrr I forgot about that.. I'll ask her and try, thankz Jitpsoe.
-Termin8oR
-
The driver installer didn't give you an error about that?
-
Nopers. Why was it spose to?
-Termin8oR
-
Great, but I need to be able to play DP and download maps and such without having quake2 installed on my PC.
-Termin8oR
that is whole purpose of the no cd "...."
-
Sweet, can you host it somewhere so I may download that excrement?
-Termin8oR
-
hmm....no
Any suggestions? I can send the exe but what good does that do?
-
Just sending the .exe wount help anything... if you could take all the files and put them into one folder and zip them, then send it and I can just open the zip file and run what I need to.
-Termin8oR
-
That would be illegal, and it still probably wouldn't work unless you want to play in software mode. Fix your drivers.
-
no crack is illegal? Gee the guy at Game Stop was not told that or at lest he did not tell me when I "bought" the game .
and yes it does work. "just unzip and enjoy" sound familer
and oh yes FIX those drivers blah.
-
I'm saying to zip up and send quake2 media would not be legal.
-
You would know better than I. So I guess the no cd crack is illegal too? :)
-
You don't need a no cd crack. Once the point release came out, it removed the CD check.
-
Also, no crack is leagal as long as you own the CD. Like how it's legal to copy music as long as it's for personal use. Well, that's not the same, but when you dad was a copyright lawyer...
-
BAHH IM GETTING RUNDLL AND DDHELP and DP wont load but other games will :(
Here is the weird part if I use gamespy and load q2 dp it works fine. But with alpha it either crashes or it will load then lag out at the start up sound. I think I need to reinstall the new vid driver? Bah !!!!!
-
Udate weee I thought it was the open gl code. It was nvidia trying to throw excrement on my OS. fixed by msconfig start up which i dont want anyhting but the IE security update which I dont worry about since I dont use IE pos (thanks wife for clicking yes on change you homepage)
-
OK allz well some nvida proccess not installed correctly druing driver upate. msconfig god blesss you
-
msconfig works in 98? It works in XP, but doesn't appear to in 2000. Odd.
-
98se :)
-
UGLY!
What's with you and using old, crappy stuff for newer purposes?
Like, using quake 2, win 98...
-
I dont use q2 anymore ty and win98se and software is puke
Id perfer 3dfx but that dont work ;)
-
You're 1/2 way there!
-
3dfx is almost as ugly as software... more so in some cases.
-
phaw!!!
-
I am having the same problems that termin8r had. When I try to run build 14 an error comes up and says "Error during initilization. Make sure you have an OpenGL capable video card and that the latest drivers are installed."
I was able to play build 14 before, but I am now not able to play with any of the past builds at all. The same error shows up with every build I try to use. I didn't switch computers or drivers. It just wont let me play and I dont understand why.
-
Did you try upgrading the drivers? What video card do you have? (see the FAQ in the Docs section)
-
nvidia newest drivers cause this game and other to lag after 2 or uses....thanks WIN98x
-
What is this? HELP!!!
NVOPENGL.DLL caused me to crash as stated above ....alot and not just this game.
HELP?
-
Install a better OS.
-
OS is working just fine thanks, any suggestions other than the mundane blah!!
-
Well, obviously it isn't, because you're getting this system-related bug.
-

WHy did you knot ask for his OS?
Bah ....
-1 troubleshooting.
-
Well i have a geforce 5200 and had to go into add/remove programs and delete nvidia drivers from there, then shut down my antivirus and finally, download the new drivers.The update doesnt work properly if you dont uninstall the older drivers i guess. =D
-
its happening again :)
man it was working like charm and now :(...pooey
-
What did you change?
-
i installed the new version of americas army. any help would be nice.
-
Revert back to an older version? *shrug*
-
an older allpha or aao version . sorry.
-
Well, it might have been something that installed along with AAO, so that's what I was referring to. Did it update directx or anything? Have you tried installing new OpenGL drivers again? Or maybe installing old ones?
-
No I have the direct 9.c . Could it be my graphics driver installed funky? Thanks for the help anyhow. Just weird and slightly annoying.
-
I'm not sure if this applies, but for XP, there's a program called driver cleaner which you can use to clean out the old drivers before (re)installing new ones. If it works with win98, you might give it a shot, but be sure to read the instructions carefully.
-
I have been looking for a good 3rd party reg cleaner. Will that software help like windows wipe etc?
FYI I have dumped 2.5 aao, everything works fine, so far.
Thanks for the help.
-
ok installed aao 2.5 . I guess its to cumbersome for my little 64 meg vid card. *shrugs
