A hand with AH2....
« on: May 17, 2004, 12:10:35 PM »
Whenever I attempt to run AH2 i get an error message:
      Initialisation failed with -3
      mainGR3D_FAILED -4

I have a Pentium3 1GHz, 512MB Ram and a Intel82815 Graphics controller with 36MB video memory.......I know, crap graphics card.......but i play off a laptop and will probably need to change the entire motherboard , so i cant upgade it......

My question is there any way I can reduce the Image quality of AH2 so as to allow my video card to handle it?????
Maybe reduce textures etc?

Also is there such a thing as an "external" graphics card?

Probably wrong forum, but whilst I am posting....have to ask.....After AH2 is released cant AH1 be played even H2H???

I don't think there's any way to trick AH2 into running on that video card.

I agree, the intel video is not up to the job.

I don't think there is anyway to lower the image quality THAT much. Not if your getting init errors on start.

If you were getting into the tower with 2 fps, then maybe.


As to AH1, I'm afraid once AH2 goes live AH1 is just a ghost. Lots of good memories and thats about it.
