    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    Hmm, I'm not sure??? You may have to re-install the game and make sure to select Windows XP for the operating system. I noticed in the video settings OpenGL is automatically selected. So it may support Direct X as well. I've never played Soldier of Fortune before, so this is all new ground...

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    I turned off the background music. I normally do that in games to increase realism. I only have one AMD card and do not use it anymore. All the rest of my PC's have Nvidia cards. I have read about special Wine versions called Gallium Nine or Gallium 9. You may want to research them because...

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    I gave it a try in PlayOnLinux and it ran perfectly for me! I'm using a GeForce GTX 950 Nividia 384 drivers. So my guess is AMD or OpenSource drivers are causing the artifacts you are experiencing. Here is my video:

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    Awesome! I will try the Community Edition this weekend and will report my findings. The main reason I am hopeful is because the Platinum ratings on WineHQs There has to be a way to get it to run, specially because its an older game.

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    Ah.... I thought that might have been your post on WineHQs. I even checked your name to see if it was you, but you posted with a different name. I had a lot of problems testing Medal of Honor Allied Assault as well, but I don't own Soldier of Fortune. Is this the games...

    Ok, then its not your setup that is causing the problem. Check out WineHQ There are two posts that got platinum results. I'm not sure how, but they are using an older version of wine.

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    Welcome to the forum meglanya! So you are using Wine alone and trying to play Soldier of Fortune? Are your AMD proprietary drivers up-to-date? Can you run any other games in Wine? One thing I always try if stable Wine doesn't work.... try Wine Staging versions like 2.16-staging

    Razer customer service - without peer!

    Good point. I have a hard time being forward and asking to escalate the issue. Most times I just take my losses and never use the service/product again.

    The GOG errors are very common and I just click "OK" for all of them. Most of my guides include those errors as well. So as long as you are running fine, have fun!

    Icewind Dale 2 Guide

    Welcome to the forum Maciej! Are you using the GOG install like in the guide? I had a problem with directx and the game voice-over's causing it to run extremely slow. So there might be a package to install that might fix your problem.

    Very nice! I now have a new respect for customer service at Razer. I love these kinds of stories because it reminds me that patience, consideration, respect and kind words always results in a good experience. How many times have you read a bitter/angry review on a game, movie, service or...

    Mechwarrior Online Guide

    Of course not... but anything below 30 fps is really going to get choppy. Below 20 fps is unplayable.

    Yeah, me as well. Even on my GTX 1060. You can always lower the video options like Anisotrophic and disable Anti-Aliasing. This should help your frame rates. Other than that, it may just be a limitation with Wine converting Direct X to OpenGL.
