OpenRA

I Got This Message Everytime I execute openra.game.exe... ! Help!:
I already Installed
.net Framework 3.5
.net Framework 4.0
Macromedia Shockwave Flash Player

PLEASE HELP me!

Go to your \My Documents\OpenRA folder and open "Settings" and make sure there is no "mods: " line. If there is, DELETE THE ENTIRE LINE. This happens to me all the time.
There are lots of "Log" files in there, too. Try opening them up and looking at them.
Also, what version of OpenRA are you using? What have you tried? Etc.

QuesTMajoR, give us exception.log. In Windows, sometimes just running of OpenRA again helps. )

I used the Latest Version according to the Main Page.
http://www.openra.res0l.net/download/win/

What must I do to the "Log" files?


AND heres the Exeption Log.

Help me Guys

What video card or GPU do you have? Try to run game with alternative Cg renderer. Use 'Graphics.Renderer=Cg' parameter in command line for it.

According to dxdiag.exe, I have Intel 82945G Express Chipset Family.. 250 Mb

Can you do it for me sir and give me your solved exception log..

If you don't know how to do command line (like most people), go to your and open it with notepad.
Then change, under "Graphics", add a new line with a tab saying "Renderer=Cg"
So it looks like Note: Does not need to look exactly like that, just "Renderer: Cg" is sufficient.
Note#2: I dunno if that graphics card is supported, but that's how you start with a Cg renderer like suggested.

Does OpenRA works on Windows7 ? Because It happened again, I changed the settings.yml but nothing happens. It keeps saying that OpenRA has encountered an error and Needs to be closed.

T.T

BTW: whart does "Cg" means on the Renderer?
I have Intel that has OpenGL Renderer btw.

OpenRA works wonderfully on Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04, I know that for a fact because I use both of those. It probably works on all Windows variants.
The Cg renderer is a renderer produced by NVidia and can be downloaded at a multitude of places and it does not need an NVidia graphics card.

Can you give us your "graphics.log"? It was mentioned in a previous log file.

I believe someone had a problem before with shaders; this is due to a really old graphics card.

How do I disable it? or DO Something just run this openRA please!

Not to sound like a dick, but I don't think you can turn off shaders or anything. You simply need a newer graphics card.
That's my speculation; I don't know. I don't know much about the inner workings of OpenRA.

awww.... So OpenRA doesnt support Intel Graphics Cards... T.T

No,

Vendor: Microsoft Corporation

means that you are using Windows drivers without too much OpenGl support. Download official ones from Intel.
