Another HalfLife problem

Hurtcake · 12-05-2003, 03:47 PM

I can't resume my HalfLife!!!! If I press esc when I am playing, i can't resume. The screen just freezes.. (But I can still play!) Then i have to quit an start over again.. ...Irritating.. especially online....

Has it someting to do with my videocard?
I have tried to reinstall

Windows Xp. 1.7 GHz. 512 MB ram. Geforce 4Ti4200 64 MB.
I have downloaded the latest drivers to Nvidia. And the lastest Direcx (9.0b)

That is f**ked up Hurtcake, try changing the video settings to default or OpenGL etc. and see if that helps. Good luck! :thumbup:

You got the newest patch for Half-Life ?
my cs 1.5 got sometimes the same kind of problems, but now i use 1.6 :thumbup:

Hurtcake · 12-05-2003, 09:01 PM

I think it works now, i changed my video settings lower then my screen resolution and I think that did it. :Oo:

:thumbup:

Thanks

:thumbup:

Yes. I am sure 1.6 has less problems like this, but i don't want to upgrade 1.5 to 1.6 because I really don't like 1.6.

Whit your pc it should work on maximum...
So try it sometime. :bucky!:

Hurtcake · 12-05-2003, 09:59 PM

Yes, but when I do set all on maximum the computer restarts when i hit the esc button..
:rant: That is really F***ing irritating :rant:

Is HL a DX or a OpenGL game??

:Oo: :dennis:

ThunderBoy · 12-06-2003, 03:25 AM

Half Life is both, you can choose the platform it runs on in the display options menu.

KamisoriX · 12-06-2003, 05:00 AM

Well, let it run on OpenGl then, i never had any probs with openGl befor

:dennis:

:thumbup:
oh yeah, MS wants to drop OpenGL support in their coming OSs, DOOM3 is a OpenGl game and refuse of givin it up....sooooooooooo........
