Koko Ricky Posted February 24, 2017 Any reason why this might be happening? I can run it in software mode and I can run older versions of GZDoom just fine. 0 Share this post Link to post
Danfun64 Posted February 25, 2017 There are quite a few ways. One way being if your gzdoom.exe was in c:\doom\, you'd enter the command prompt, type "cd c:\doom", then type "gzdoom.exe -glversion 2". Alternately, either create a gzdoom shortcut, right click it, click properties, and then add "-glversion 2"; or create a batch file next to gzdoom.exe by going to folder options, uncheck "hide file extensions", create a .txt file next to your gzdoon.exe, change the .txt to .bat, then edit the file so it says "gzdoom.exe -glversion 2" 0 Share this post Link to post
Koko Ricky Posted February 25, 2017 Neither the batch nor command line methods work. Neither the 32 or 64 bit versions work. The Mac version doesn't work. 0 Share this post Link to post
VGA Posted February 26, 2017 You didn't mention your OS, your gfx card, which drivers you have... basically "why the black screen in Opengl guys?" isn't very helpful 0 Share this post Link to post
Koko Ricky Posted February 26, 2017 Sorry about that. It's a Windows 7 machine with 8GB RAM 2.90 GHZ clockspeed. I can't figure out how to ask the computer to display what my video card is, even after Googling. 0 Share this post Link to post
Rachael Posted February 26, 2017 Try the following: gzdoom.exe +logfile lotsofstuff.txt When the screen goes black, press Alt-F4. You should get info about your video card in the "lotsofstuff.txt" file it generates. 0 Share this post Link to post
