Anytime I try and run Legacy in Open or MiniGL, it crashes with a signal_handler(): segment violation error. I've tried just about everything I can think of to fix this, and it just randomly started happening. It used to run just fine in GL modes.

If I can't get it to work, can anyone recommend a port that can run a high resolution (1280/720+) in windowed mode? Me and my boyfriend record "Lets Play" videos every now and then and have been using the Legacy windowed mode for it.

Cheers =)

Lol, why you still use legacy?
Go for Skulltag, or GZDoom.

Some very minor work has been done recently - but on the old code! The 2.0 version appears to be dead indeed.

Mr. Chris

Use another source port, Legacy seems to be dead...you expect after 6 years of no real news on 2.0?

Legacy still has the best LAN CS.
Try running in regular OpenGL and no MiniGl.
Other than that try and allocate more memory.
-mb 128 for instance.

If you just want an OpenGL port which can run window/fullscreen, check out GZDoom - http://grafzahl.drdteam.org/ - PrBoom-Plus also has a GL renderer for Windows - http://prboom-plus.sourceforge.net/
