windows and could not load OpenGL subsystem

[CAT]

Hi, I download Version 1.1.0 (stand alone) for Windows, and I install.

But, I start game and program says:

GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem

I dowload a dll's (opengl.dll and opengl32.dll), but the game doesn't go.

(Sorry for my bad english, I'm spanish)

Thank all for help!

You have no working OpenGL, or so it seems. I would suggest downloading the latest drivers for your videocard. Also try installing DirectX.

I get the same issue, with 5.1 Catalyst drivers for my card (Radeon 9700 Pro). Investigation of my graphics control panel assures me that OpenGL is indeed installed and operational at version 6.14.10.5396

However, I can't set my resolution down as low as 640x480 through the graphics settings (probably due to my 1280x1024 LCD screen) - and I note from the startup log of Trem that its trying to initialise at 640x480. Is there any way to override the default resolution from outside of the game?

Hi Chris

Stick "+set r_mode x" (where x is a mode number) on the command line. 8 corresponds to 1280x1024 IIRC.
