Default Re: 2 Technical Questions

Try the following:

1) Use "dom2.exe -smfwx --res 800 600"
Even if it doesn't work, leave it this way.

2) Make shure to use a OpenGL-capable driver.
Check the readme/website docs for details. Not every ATI driver can run OpenGL apps, and even those that are supposed to aren't necessarily very good at it.
I run DOM2 on the the machine I write this on, and it's using a Rage XL chip. It does run, but performace is very poor, despite C-600 and 384 MB.

3) Run DxDiag, post the info here.
