Steam Install Procedure

Postby Lazyeye » Thu Feb 16, 2017 3:36 pm

Sorry if this is redundant. I see posts but nothing is clear cut. I install the game from Steam. After installing from steam I run the game and get Open GL errors. (see pic) I have no wolfconfig.cfg in my main directory. Im assuming because it gets created upon first successful launch but The game crashes upon first launch. Can someone provide instructions or any help with this issue? Greatly Appreciated.

Yes. That driver doesn't support OpenGL.

Looks possible, but requires some extra work.

See here...might get you up and running:

Unfortunately no luck. When I try to install these old drivers that you have provided link for it says My PC does not meet the requirements for this software. As if it were the wrong version drivers. I am running 64 bit and from what I can see these drivers are 64 bit. So Im at a loss.

Did you try updating the drivers through the device manager or with a setup.exe?

I tried both methods. I followed the directions precisely. even went cowboy and tried different versions of drivers.. sucks I figured I would just pull a video card from some skeletons at the office. I pulled a card bring it to my computer and realize i have a slim tower and cant fit the card. lol

Working on it as I write this. Still no luck. When I uninstall the current driver so that it sets to microsoft basic driver then proceed to trying in install the 64bit driver it says best driver is already installed. :(

I'm done banging my head on this. I just got a hold of a windows 7 box. I am going to do the steam install on it. This box has a geforce card. Any benefits to installing the iortcw or should I just do the steam install? THANKS
