Hello folks I'm having some problems with AGS
I have just had a massive system data loss which made me have to Format my hard disc meaning i had to re-download AGS 2.72
Trouble is i now cannot play any AGS games but i could before
One other thing when rebooting my computer I had to go from XP Pro to XP Home
Problems playing your own games?
What's the problem? What error message(s) do you get?
Which version of AGS were the games made with?
Problems playing other people's games? Which ones?
What's the problem? Any error messages?
Please provide more info next time.
sorry buddy
I was a bit lacking in the details there
Ok i have downloaded the trials of odyseus kentÃ, by yahtzee
but whenever i play it it wont show up
MeaningÃ, the game will actually run (sounds crazy) but no graphics show up
the only reason i know that it is playing is because when i move the window it is playing in, parts of the intro appear you can see odyseus and even the priest a few clicks later
I have no idea what is going on
Any ideas
PS i have not had enough time after my full reboot to try making a room to test but i will try and do that now
PPS i have just tried it and when i test it its exactly the same
I think it maybe a graphics card problem Galaxy Geforce FX5500 NVidia
HMMMMM
Try a more recent game...
I just tried the magic hat and the music plays and yet there is no graphics ???
Have you installed the latest graphics card drivers? Latest DirectX?
i haven't done direct x but i'll give it a go
Well i'l be damned it worked Thanks strazer and Shh
Could the games be played in windowed mode?
Afraid not but installing direct x v 9.0 solved the whole thing
When windowed you could move the window and the graphics that were supposed to be displayed Appeared but were still
Cheers all
