BannanaBomb2003 Posted March 15, 2003 Report Share Posted March 15, 2003 :ugh: okay please don't get mad at me if this is one of the many questions people have asked you, I read the faq to, but I'm having trouble running the xenocide file. I double clicked on the icon and my computer started to think as if it was loading a game then it just canceled it all together 6 seconds later. I read the log and it said: State info: The property keyboardexclusivemode does not exist, using default value.State info: The property keyboardforegroundmode does not exist, using default value.Error found: CG ERROR : The profile is not supported. Will someone please help me with this? I am using an amd atholon video card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthonius Runeblaze Posted March 15, 2003 Report Share Posted March 15, 2003 The AMD Athlon is a processor, and considering you're using one, you should be fine in terms of your CPU. However, your video card is of main concern here, so to figure out what kind of video card you actually have, do the following: Right-click your desktop and hit properties. Next, click the Settings tab. Underneath the monitor graphic, you should see the word "Display:" followed by the monitor and your video card, in that order. For example, mine shows "Super VGA 1280x1024 on NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440" thus meaning I'm using a monitor without a driver that can go to 1280x1024 resolution, and it's connected to my video card, the NVIDIA GeForce 4 MX 440 (GeForce 2 in disguise, but that's another story.) I know for a fact that the Intel graphics chips do not work with this game, as I've tried it on a PIII 800 with an Intel integrated graphics chip (can't be bothered to look up the model number because it's just a bunch of letters and numbers. Silly Intel.) However, since you're running an AMD, the chances of you having an Intel chip are slim to none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordT Posted March 15, 2003 Report Share Posted March 15, 2003 I'm pretty sure the FAQ says GF only at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red knight Posted March 16, 2003 Report Share Posted March 16, 2003 Exactly, CG is the runtime shader compiler... If it sais that the profile is not supported, it means that your card do not support the required OpenGL Extensions, in this case cause i used Vertex Programs your card do not support the ARB_Vertex_Program extension...

BannanaBomb2003 Posted March 18, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 it says im using a Compaq mv940 on nvidia vanta lt (compaq) will this work? If it does it must be a setting on the game or comp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[[Micah]] Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 After a little research, I've confirmed that the nvidia vanta LT cards were produced prior to the geforce2. Also, the largest amount of ram on a vanta appears to be only 16mb. Your video card will not support the alpha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaoslord Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 Hey Guys I Have exactly the same problem xenocide.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. and then the log is the same as above *sigh* I Have a P IV 2.54 and a GeForce 4 Ti 4600 so the problem isnt in the Card and windows XP sp1 Any More Suggestions? Cheers Chaos P.S. Now i have news i changed this ins my engine.conf filefrom thismouseExclusiveMode = false;mouseForegroundMode = true; to this mouseExclusiveMode = true;mouseForegroundMode = false; and now it doest crash, it simply doesnt run at all so the reason i cant run the game is something to do with the mouse(i have a Ps/2 one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red knight Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 Nope, at least not a first sight... Exclusive mode is excluyent with background mode (foregroundMode = false)... You cant ask both of it... Try ForegroundMode = true and let me know... BTW if you get a profile not supported try to update your drivers to the new NVidia Detonator (i think is V40)... That information will be in the FAQ Soon, i had emailed Micah an update. GreetingsRed Knight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaoslord Posted March 19, 2003 Report Share Posted March 19, 2003 Hey red knight thanks for replying but that's still a noi still get a ugly crash ;( and my nvidia drivers are 42.xx i tried at my work with a totally different machine and the same problem occurs "State info: The property keyboardexclusivemode does not exist, using default value.State info: The property keyboardforegroundmode does not exist, using default value." Isn't there a way to use a "normal" keyboard mode? Wait New thing i discovered that it's not a keyboard error i added this lines too [GDSEngine.winDeviceHandler] keyboardExclusiveMode = false;keyboardForegroundMode = true; and i still have the same crash, altough no error txt file is created, soit must be something else... now what could it be...

red knight Posted March 19, 2003 Report Share Posted March 19, 2003 That lines are "state reports" it means the engine is using the default, but it tells you that. Can you post a printscreen of the xenocide.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Error Message. And post the names of the files you have in which directory... GreetingsRed Knight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
