Blockland Freezing.

[Ducky duck]

I have two computers with the same specs but different company.

I just got the second one, hoping that when I play BL it won't freeze like my other PC.

The only difference with this newer PC is that the CPU is 3Ghz instead of 2ghz.
(Pentium 4)

Here is the new PC specs,



Yet it still freezes up.

I added 4GB of ram to my Older PC but it still freezes, so its not RAM thats causing it.

Help?

Can you tell us when it freezes?
Is it after pressing the icon or when trying to join a server, ...
Do you see the launcher loading or goes it as far as the black screen?

If it is before you see the main menu, could you attach your launcher.log to your next reply?

It will freeze at random times usually during gameplay. Not in the menu or when loading.

No, they just can't run shaders.

No, they just can't run shaders.

Depends what you mean by "Can't run shaders". I can run shaders, but my computer freezes. (Not BSOD!) And they look ugly with them.

Could you enter 'trace(1);' into the commandline and post your console.log?


I am not sure, but from what I read here on the Blockland site. You need a graphics card compatible with Open GL.
Your Radeon X300, as read here, may not support that with the current drivers.
So maybe updating your driver may solve your problem.

I couldn't find the drivers on the AMD site, maybe you have more luck.
Otherwise, try one of the drivers from here that is compatible with Win XP.

This is because your graphics card cannot use shaders.
Intel cards are not(most of them, anyway) meant to run OpenGL, which is what shaders use to be, well, shaders.
By 'can't run shaders', I basically mean that it cannot run shaders at all, or that it abnormally handles them(ex. your case).

so that specs you showed us is a newly built/bought pc?
HAHAHAHHAHAHA
You shouldn't buy/build a pc with those specs, save up for some better hardware.

I got this PC from my school for free, I would be better off buying a whole new PC then getting new hardware.

I am also unable to post a console log, the OP is wrong, i ment to say my PC freezes.
