O2 viewer will not open for me, any suggestions?

[Airwolf]

Hi, i just got my copy of the o2_viewer and it wont open correctly, when i try to open it it says no 3dfx cannot run glide mode, then it says cannot run full screen, anyone having this problem or know what to do? Or have i simply made a mistake by opening it does it open only with oxygen? if it does sorry for bothering you.

you are supposed to add -noland -dx in the shortcut


dx presumably means 'use direct3d' instead of glide

however I am getting some invalid d3d call error even with that and without it wants glide which I ain't got (Radeon 8500) so I am gonna reboot and try again


edit - I get something like

'cannot create 3d device'
Adapter -1() Windowed (or FullScreen without -window parameter)
Error D3DERR_INVALIDCALL

You may be able to fix your problems by copying Flashpoint.cfg from your Flashpoint directory into the directory where you run O2 Viewer.

Yes, copying the cfg file works....
