RUNNING WITH RIFLES :: View topic

hi and welcome to the forum.
It looks like you have neither shadows enabled, nor postprocessing (check graphic options ingame) enabled. Also you don't have the isolines enabled (those heightlines that you can see on your friend's screenshot).

the G33/31 gfx card family isn't shining when playing video games as they are meant to be used for 2D tasks. I guess your problem can be solved with updating your GPU if you want to enjoy better visuals :-/
Pasik will for sure be able to investigate this a bit further. You'd have to be patient for that as he is not in town for a while

Apart from the visuals, is the framerate acceptable ?

Looks to me the game decides not to load the shaders for you, or fails loading them, as indicated by no outlines for soldiers, no isolines and post processing not working.

G33 seems to have support for Shader Model 2.0, I think most shaders in RWR are currently set up for 2.x, which would require a little bit extended support for SM2, which I suppose G33 doesn't have.

One thing you could check would be the log, in Windows Vista/7, it's at C:\ProgramData\Running with rifles\rwr_game.log. It should show which shaders / rendering techniques it ends up using and may reveal the reason why. Just attach the log on a forum post or put in pastebin.com or similar or send it to pasi.kainiemi@modulaatio.com.

Weird thing is i can't seem to find programdata folder even though i am the administrator. I'm always having to search for the folder, any reasons why?

ProgramData is a hidden directory, so you have to unhide it first in the folder options or just enter the exact path: "C:\ProgramData\Running with rifles"
