Postby bluebooksky » Sun May 22, 2016 10:45 am

its been a few years sense i last played this game but when i tried to play all i got was a red blurry mess. sounds messed up too but i already found a thread about it.
my java is up to date so im not sure the issue. if someone could tell me how to fix this or at least link me to a thread that tells me how to fix this i would appreciate it.

Do you run your desktop in true color (24 bit)?

Apart from that I suspect you won't have that much fun anyway when using the integrated graphics on your CPU, they're ok when used to render word or to decompress some video but for gaming they're not powerful enough IMHO.

not sure im not computer savvy enough to try to touch anything with out detailed instruction.
. I bought the Tree of Life on steam and realized it was a more 3d dumbed down version of this game. that game works just fine on this computer, but it made me remember and miss haven and hearth. I wish there was something i could do.

Thank you! I went back to java 32 bit I was having issues with the 62 bit. Is there two wizards in the beginning area? I kind of see two I cant right click them. if i click on the red landscape it sends me randomly right or left never where i was pointing at. I can only really get where i want by clicking on the mini map.

What an interesting failure mode. I have to admit I have no idea what might cause it. The "interlacing" along the X axis makes me suspect there's some kind of pixel format mismatch somewhere along the line. I can only re-recommend to make sure your drivers are updated. There could potentially be a driver bug related to FBO handling.

Think you for at least commenting. its says my drivers are updated for windows 7 and my java's the latest, i've done everything i could think of. oh well i was feeling nostalgic thank you for being my first survival game and setting the bar so high for me.

You aren't using the built-in Windows drivers instead of AMD's own?
