Cannot get new version of MM8BDM to start
« on: October 22, 2015, 01:13:06 AM »
Hey guys, it's been a long time since I've been on here. Mostly due to going through RL stuff and my computer burning out, but I digress. Recently downloaded the newest version of MM8BDM and every time I try to start it, this happens:

I'm not really able to get this figured out, and would appreciate some much needed help.

Try putting +vid_renderer 0 in the extra command line parameters section.

You're welcome!  As a note you only have to do this once.  It forces the game to set the software renderer on launch rather than having to use the in game menu.

+Vid_Renderer 0 = Software
+Vid_Renderer 1 = OpenGL

If your computer doesn't support OpenGL I would suggest looking into a video card to add that capability.
