Graphics chip sets that aren't working

[Yelerian_Ocelot]

Did anyone manage to make a Sis 3 Mirage work propely? The game runs but half the textures are gone and the fps is near zero.

According to the information I was able to find, it should work, as it's supposed to support up through OpenGL 1.5. Best I can suggest is checking driver support for your OS and looking into driver tweaks.

Radeon 5450 - Doesn't show the transparency / Aero of the inventory. Full-screen doesn't work.

Radeon 6670 - Displays everything correctly. Although I still can't get Salem to enter full-screen mode using :fs 1.



I'm about to purchase a Radeon 6770. I'll let you know how it runs on Salem.


Edit: I'm using the drivers from AMD's homepage.

The 6770 runs it just fine, its what I am using. So did a 4650.

It sure does.

Updated:

Issue reported with the Radeon 6370 Mobility and shadows.

Finally fixed my links I forgot to put into the opening post. (Might have missed one. If so, please tell me.)

Again, if anyone has a fix for any issues reported here or elsewhere on the forums, please, let us know!

Shouldn't this be a sticky?
I don't have a solution to the graphics card issue but the solution to reset the clients if shadows have been turned on is shown below.

Possible solution (works for me)
Open the salem.cfg file in the Salem folder - C:\Users\<your user folder>\Salem\.
Change shadows=true to shadows=false
Save
Login and play.

I don't think it's worth it as 95%+ of the hardware in existence should run Salem. There may be,as is pointed out, some issues with things like enabling shadows for a few cards due to improper OpenGL support, but that also seems to be a small fraction of players.
