GLimp_Init() - Invalid GL Driver

 

K.I.L.E.R., do other OpenGL games work? Or it is just that one?

Since I don't currently have XP installed I couldn't test it enough (I Mean, the XP driver), maybe it's a bug in my drivers, let me know...

 

All Ogl games do this not just Q3 engine based ones. But Direct 3d looks awesome. I never thought playing without Aniso can look that dern good especially in D3d games.

 

OK then, It will take about two hours, but I'll install XP and check the drivers, just to make sure.
In the meantime, just copy the "nvoglnt.dll" from the normal nvidia 29.42 drivers into your Windows\System32 folder, replacing the 29.60 file I used, that will fix it (I think), let me know if it works...

 

Yes that worked.

 

It might just be me but GTA3 wont start now. I double click the exe and absolutely nothing happens *cry*

using XP version of these drivers.

 

As I don't have GTA3 I can't fix the bug myself, sorry, I need someone to help me here, please E-Mail me and I'll give you some instructions to see if we can get the problem solved.

 

i'll be happy to help if it wont blow up my computer

 

Just re-installed the official nvidia drivers (v29.42 from nvidia.com) and GTA3 works fine =) so it must be the drivers... do you have ICQ or AIM? so we can get the omega drivers fixed asap..

 

Nvidia Geforce 2 MX 100/200 32Megas

If this helps you:
The opengl mode didn´t function me when I tried to play the last version of counter-strike. I´m running Windows XP 256M RAM DDR. I have realised that your drivers haven´t create me a key in the registry at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video and when I´ve reinstalled my older detonator they´ve done that.
I think I´ve installed them correctly: download and run .exe file and locate and install .inf file from properties. If I am in a mistake let me know please.

GooD LuCk,

 

You are doing it fine kepaja, the problem was me , I used the 29.80 OpenGL file in the 29.42 XP drivers, but I didn't tested it (the mix worked fine in 9x), so it seems that nvidia "locked" the drivers so they can't be mixed.
I'm uploading a new version ASAP with the correct files included, when ready I'll update the main page and links.

Sorry...

 

Hopefully 1042b works with GTA3 =P

 

Shawn, check your PM

 

I knew it!

I knew SoF2 was playing way too smooth for the 29.42 set, I just knew it!

Great job again O-man, I am totally blown away! (In a very happy way. )

 

Omega's da MAN!!! "b" fixed my GTA problem..

 

Don't mess with the best!



Dang it, I'm actually thinking of installing XP again now just to try your drivers on them!

 

Cool, lemme check these out and see how I like them!

 

[SIZE=x-small]I lost a couple of FPS in Q3, but the IQ looks much better that your last BETA Driver . It works great, no crashe's in Q3, Counter-Strike and UT2003 ...[/SIZE]
