Yeah I don't see anything, except for the game's window showing a pitch black screen and that error message.

It didn't even try to go fullscreen either.

The trees look great, and I had no problem startin' up and whatnot.

Oh the game should run properly, you just cannot see anyone else yet

v0.25 doesn't work either

Sorry Metadude, there's not much we can do for you since we don't know what the issue is

metadude1234 · **Reply #889 on:** July 12, 2010, 06:03:35 AM

i know, i'll try and see if it works at work

Metadude...install all possible updates (other than language packs). I've using Windows 7 here and it works like a charm. The only thing I can think of is that it's an issue with Windows itself which can probably be fixed with a Windows update. If not, try running it in compatibility mode for Windows XP SP2.

i've updated my win 7 to the absolute maximum and i've tried win xp sp 2

EDIT: V0.25 works on desktop yay!!!

Glad to know that metadude!

love the trees and new day/night system.

Glad to know that you like it

If you download the patch http://www.mediafire.com/?9ztmw886civaqra you can also see plants and some other fancy features

Good news, I just installed Windows 7 Ultimate (setup in dual-boot, so I can switch back to XP anytime

), and the game works perfectly fine.

Except for one thing: the 1280x960 resolution setting (which is the native resolution of my monitor). It crashes when I use that.

action9000 · **Reply #896 on:** July 16, 2010, 11:19:54 PM

Have you tried other resolutions? The resolution should not matter at all, but I will look into it. I tried the resolution here on my computer, which is also a widescreen, and it runs just fine.

Glad that it works for you too now!

2007excalibur2007 · **Reply #897 on:** July 17, 2010, 12:19:42 AM

Yeah, I tried the other resolutions. Anything higher 1280x960 crashes the game.

I encountered a bit of a graphical glitch. When I approached the bank of the river the grey area expanded into the grass, and the further down I moved my camera the further the grey area spread. It faded to green once I moved farther away, albeit the equilvalent of perhaps 700 ft.

Here's a picture.

That sounds like possibly either a limitation of your video card or monitor (the latter being much more likely). Lower resolutions than that work too, correct?

Aye, that is a known graphical bug related to our map files. We are working on a solution to this and I have a theory on how to fix it. We are waiting until we get some more maps completed to work on it since it is a bit of a project.
