GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem and windows 7(solved)

[xsparkx]

I just (down)upgraded to windows 7 from xp. Trem was working fine but when i installed it and tried to play it gave me that error. I want to know if it is because of windows 7. I updated my drives and did other things posts said to do.

Windows 7 is probably lacking proper support for your card.

If that is the case, then there is nothing I can do right?

Look to see if there are newer drivers.  I'd guess most cards will have proper drivers by now, the manufactures website should have a download link. (http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx or http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx)

Hi there.

I have also windows 7 but the way that tremo works is pretty strange.
First I had some old drivers and screen was jumping in game. After update there was no problem but I wanted to install korx mode. Didnt know how to install tremo properly because it did not want to instal base folder in system apps. Dunno

Now when i installed some Tremoulus GamePlay Preview (some tremo update from tremoulus dowdnload link) than I was able to play in really high resolution.

I turned off Tremou GPP and turned usuall tremo. Than in graphic configuration after resolution change the game hanged and showed error comunicate like the one in topic.

After 3 times of the same combination the game shows the same comunicate every time I start the game.
I have newest nvidia drivers for sure so there should be no problem like this
Got any idea how to help?

Thanks

You're trying to set a resolution higher than what your monitor supports. Remove the autogen.cfg file from your Tremulous folder (Application Data/Tremulous/base/autogen.cfg I think?)

Damn... ure right... I have max 1280 x 800 resolution and if I set it in range it works. The strange thing is, that tremo does not have any widescreen resolution. I have some tiny ~1000*780 resolution but no widescreen ;(

Second thing is...

Where to find application data for tremo in windows 7?
I had vista earlier but I could not find it :/ 
I have searchd for the directory on google but it looks like that tremo does not install any folder in AppData.

run the game and type fs_homepath and it'll tell you where it is.

It's probably %APPDATA%/tremulous

For 1.1 it's in appdata/local/tremulous (unless you run tremfusion, then it's appdata/roaming/tremulous) and for 1.2 it's in appdata/roaming/tremulous/gpp.

[UniqPhoeniX]

For 1.1 it's in appdata/local/tremulous (unless you run tremfusion, then it's appdata/roaming/tremulous) and for 1.2 it's in appdata/roaming/tremulous/gpp.

Isn't the /gpp the mod (fs_game), not part of the homepath?

It's not. The original 1.1 client's (the one that comes with the .zip or installer) homepath is C:/Program Files/Tremulous, which is also it's basepath. gpp's homepath is appdata/roaming/tremulous. But if you use tremfusion, yes, gpp and tremfusion have the same homepath.
