Cannot create 3D device

Recommended Posts

Hey all,

First of all i did a search and tried the things on Avon's website but it doesnt work.

I switched 3d cards from Nvidia Geforce Ti4600 to Radeon and now i get the cannot create 3d device error.  Nothing works that s been suggested in topics and Avon's site.

Now before i reinstall ofp is there anything i can try to get it back to work and save me all the work with my modfolders etc .

Ofp wont boot, CSLA II wont boot, but the weird thing is FDF boots nicely and there are no problems with it ... i tried ofp with and without addons, but get the error in both cases.

Help !

Cheers,

Jap

PS : i tried several Radeon drivers and reinstalled Directx again ...

Did you run a cleaner utility to make sure that your previous Nvidia drivers were fully uninstalled?

edit: <s>The Launcher does not issue the -nomap switch.</s>

Try creating an OFP desktop shortcut with the -nomap switch plus the -mod switch listing the mod folders you want to run OFP with.

If your using v2.17 of Keg's Launcher, then goto Options>Options(again) and tick the check box that says 'Force no memory-mapping' this will add the -nomap command on startup.

Cap.

Ok,

I reinstalled the game ...

Nothing worked.

Thx for the suggestions all, maybe a clean install and some carefull selection of addons now will be better anyway smile_o.gif

I just installed ofp, gold and resistance, updated to 1.96B and installed Kegetys' incredible DLL, all works fine now.

But before i put in addons can anybody give me the link to OFP launcher v2.17 ... i cant find it.

Cheers and thx all

use -nomap or reduce number of addons - i had same error smile_o.gif

Grizzlie,

Thx for the suggestion, but i really tried all that ...

As i said, i uninstalled and reinstalled freshly now, but before putting in the addons i need v2.17 of that launcher, which i cant seem to find anywhere crazy_o.gif
