Deji Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Okay I'm trying to remove Warrock from my friends life (Saving him from himself) by iving him SAMP. The problem is his mums computer has a shitty GFX card but enough RAM to handle other things. San Andreas runs like a bare footed, drunken, blond bimbo on drugs with a rock chained to her feet. (Translation: SA Runs slow) And I found out that switching his game to 16-bit colour mode works fine. So then I re-downgraded back to 1.0 (Which magically fixed another problem) to find out that the 'Advanced' option crashes the game. I have to press 'Enter' or 'Space' to get rid of an error screen I can't see. I notice that this problem is from having the 1.0 version of the game and having a shitty GFX card. So without the abillity to access the advanced options I can't re-configure the quality settings and have it run better. And because it runs slowly SA-MP refuses to start properly after I pick the server and 2.0 or 1.1 won't work with SAMP... I'm looking for a way to get onto the Advanced options without having to use the upgrade patches and be inable to access SAMP. Wasn't there some trainer that had advanced controls?

Deji Posted July 4, 2008 Author Share Posted July 4, 2008 Make / model / Vram of video card? SiS Mirage Graphics... Thats all I know. I'm tryna resist opening the case and I just get that on the Device Manager thing. Sounds like a 32MB thing if the bugfix details on the 1.1 patch are anything to go by. It says this happens on 32MB GFX cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrLlamaLlama Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 ^ Does that help? No? Then don't bother. Yeah, sounds like a 32mb card error. I think i saw a GFX downgrader mod for SA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustADummy Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 (edited) I think there's a patch in GTAForums SA troubleshooting section. Off topic: Also, I have a SiS Mirage 256MB Graphics in the laptop and it behaves like a 8MB one. Edited July 4, 2008 by Spider-Vice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
