Title: GhR help?
Post by: The Golden Shark on December 01, 2005, 05:24:15 am
okay okay okay, so i know its an old game, but i wanna play online. i install, and update and everything. i even go as far as to locate and install island thunder. i go to join my first GameRanger game and as soon as i get to wait screen it quits back to the game room. no message, no nothing other than the message "<Aborted Game>" i can figure it out. i have well over the tech specs, i have updated all the way to 1.0.3

i didnt think iguard was for GhR but i suppose this might be a problem? please help im frusterated and confused. thanx in advance.



- Fixed a typo.

You probably forgot to install the latest *DAMN mappack, pretty much all GhR servers on GameRanger use it.

thnx... im gonna try it right now. but i have another question: even though i run on all high settings there is like dot pattern in all the textures of the game. lol i cant figure this one out either. could it be because i run in wide screen?

yep first problem sounds like a mod (the DBL one as civic noted) as for the dot pattern... does sound a little odd and you could try using a non widescreen monitor.. changing res's. sounds like a graphics card drivers type problemo ish though

Ghost Recon is pretty old.. the pixelation is normal.. however it can be controlled. If you have a pb with an ati chip set download the latest ATI displays from http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/21573 after installation go to sys prefs then ati displays. Click the "3D" button on the left column and add ghost recon to the list and look for a setting called FSAA. Adjust accordingly.

the problem could come from setting the texture quality to 16bit instead of 32 bit. just check your graphic settings again. the resolutions exist twice: one for 16bit and one for 32bit - just scroll down to find your powerbooks resolution with 32bit color.
