GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem

hm u already have me i think?
anyway heres it jaouad_siraji@hotmail.com

this error is the result that he cant find a open gl driver, what kind of a grafix card do you have. (if you have a nvidia (TNT or gforce serie reinstall the drivers) if you have a ati same story if you have a verry old pc with a 3dfx (Voodoo) card you need to copy a file from your video driver to let quake work.

ill try

i got nvidia riva tnt2 model 64. I don't know what driver i should install. plz can some1 send me open.dll file add me 2 msn cristiano_222@hotmail.com and then send me from the file sharing thing

i would be gr8ful if some1 wud send me

chee will allways know how to solve pritty mutch any q3 problem he did a degree in it any way crissy http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp

nvidia cards use the same drivers for there cards you just need to pick gfx drivers then  geforce and tnt2 then what ever your windows is bu remember to uninstall the old driver but keep the settting in it well i think u should keep the settings not 100% sure in your case but if you were doing it and had no probs b4 hard then you would want to save the settings any way good luck crissy and btw we rocked in 222

degree? O_o

meh

well as peeps said above, reinstall ur drivers..best off getting the latest (jaki said above what to do for that)
ur settings shouldn't need changing (in q3) but maybe start easy on ur card, do a low res and then see if it works...if it does move up to normal..

if u got a real coppy of q3 i think its got open gl stuff on it try just installing that again

 

this got nothing todo with that opengl.dll file the onley solution is to reinstall the drivers of your GFX card. it are the normal detinator drivers witch you can find at the link that jack gave you.

yoyo

try to remove all your .cfg files from your quake folder and then launch it again maybe that will works ...

good luck !

cu   WeedAssault

well the thing is that the game just wont load.... it comes up with an error message b4 the game starts. Im gonna try that drivers thing tho

u mean on the window b4 q3 starts up and its flashing saying you dong got somthing that u need

hmm not a expert but try uninstalling it and then finding it in your hard drive del it then reinstall see what happens dont think this would work but hi it might be woth a try

just install that GFX card driver, and if it works not after that you can move your config.cfg out of your basiq3 folder. but reinstalling the drivers should solve the problems.

I am proud to announce that i am back in the game after i downloaded it from a torrent and installed it properly. i will go by the name of CrissY Cr!s7!an0 or Rooney-UK until i find a better name lolz! i jus gotta get point release 1.31 and also get some freeze files or summat

Praise the Lord.

wb amigo

good good fresh meet

lol madjak

is that all u think i am, fresh meat lolz!

fresh meet to own got sick of owning lyor now its your turn and wellcome back to q3 u not to bad i been wathing u to night a bit

Yea good news for me too, finally someone else owns me besides Mad Jak.

lol me own u? no chance

hey guys,

I think i got the same problem!

I wanted to install q3 on my lap-top and it also said...  could not load openGL.dll ...

The Lap-Top is very new, may it be that the drivers are too new for my q3 and that i have to "down-date" them?

Please help me Chee or someone - wanna frag my brother a little ;-)

bye

Andi 

if you are connected to the same network and see both computers on my network places then share your q3 folder and then copy it onto your laptop. thats what i did when i had a laptop - until it got stolen well that is what you should do. it works. i installed full cd version though onto my comp and it worked

hmmmm have u tred to install any thing elss that uses openGL if it a valid cd dont know what u can do but if its not do the same as crissy

well, thx for the first help there guys!!! - BUT i did copy the complete folder, thats what did to get on the lap top in the first place.

may it be, that i need to install the game on the lap top too?

bye andi

well i think what said in q3 will do it still but meh

i dont think it would exactly hurt to try and install it anyway

er take all q3 stuff of it then go in hd and del it and remove it then just install it after that then put in the open.gl hacks in

Hey guys!

thx for help! it works now! I entered with my brother in the bedzie servers yesterday! His name is *AL_FinyoU* in green and white, I did him a little 333 style    be polite to my brother when you see him - but he's not much of a talker/reader because he concentrates on the game too much. he hasnt got any routine yet, but we used to play alot together a few years ago

Anyway, we still have the ping-problem. but none already told me to turn down maxpackets to 30 or so. if there are any more suggestions, they're always welcome of course... can't get a better connection though

bye yours andi!

cool , da bin ich aber mal gespannt ^^ ich muss auch mal für nachwuchs sorgen

to the non german: I NEED SOMEBODY WHO PLAY FOR ME ELSE LOLL
