Go into your DeusEx/System folder, and find the file called DeusEx.ini
Open that, and look for this line:
[OpenGLDrv.OpenGLRenderDevice]
Then, copy and paste this code BELOW the line I mentioned earlier. The code below must replace EVERYTHING under [OpenGLDrv.OpenGLRenderDevice]
Then:
1. save the document
2. start up Deus Ex in Safe Mode
3. click "Change your 3D video device"
4. Click the "Show All Devices" radio button
5. Click "OpenGL Support"
6. "Next" > "Next" > "Run!"
If you follow these steps, everything should go according to plan. Have fun!

And what about the opengl file I just downloaded from the first post? Don't I need that?Master_Kale wrote:...
EDIT: Holy snizzle, I edited the whole thing and did everything you told me to - But the game looks far more dark and has all those decal errors everywhere. The sound is also effected by it for some reason. Mabye I should install that file?

Heh, yeah. I thought you already did. The file in the first post one version outdated, so use this one: http://cwdohnal.home.mindspring.com/utglr/dxglr15.zipNeuraxis wrote:And what about the opengl file I just downloaded from the first post? Don't I need that?Master_Kale wrote:...

And the brightness of the game is a little b0rked with this engine, so you have to go into the display options while in-game and just move the slider a click over to the left or right, then back to where it was. You'll see the change instantly.
But how do I install the driver? Isen't it sopposed to overwrite the .dll in my system32 folder? Because I don't have file equivalent to that. :SMaster_Kale wrote:Heh, yeah.

EDIT1: Oh, it goes in the Deus Ex system folder. >_< I'll try to install it now.
EDIT2: Finally it works. I encountered some screen issues and the sound pucking up again, but it works now! It's really a great improvement compared to Direct3D!

We don't have an official HDTP IRC channel yet, but having one might be a good idea.
As Kale said, it's pretty slow at the moment but I imagine things will pick up in June/July. Lots of our members will be finishing their degree courses/school/college for the summer and should have more time to give to the project.

Yep! Id certainly be in favor of IRC - i think its more sociable than msn and it'll only help bring us all together more.lofaesofa wrote:We don't have an official HDTP IRC channel yet, but having one might be a good idea.

Im going to post news Lofa about exams and stuff and our slowdown. We just cant do anything right now so we might as well just wait and refocus june/july period as you said.
Also, Im busy getting up my skills at work which is why ive been a no show. Its all crazy business back here!
Good luck with exams everyone I expect you ALL to pass with flying colours
I've spectacularly managed to get huge work deadlines to coincide with moving house (to the very day!), which is why I've been away for the last month or so. However, it's pretty much over now so I'll be back this Friday. An IRC channel would be great, I idle on IRC a lot of the time as it is. I would vote for StarChat, if only because I could stay on one server. (Yes, I know StarChar sucks).
