Na Pali & opengl2105

Post by jack_schitt »

I tried the latest opengl driver with unreal226f, everything works great. However, when I tried it with na pali, the game works, but, whenever I press esc, to get to the menus, all I get is the windows cursor and no menus, press esc again, and it goes back to the game. Can anyone help ? Also, has anyone figured out how to get the hires textures from ut to work with the patch ? :)

I'm surprised re installing Na Pali worked for you like that. I uninstalled a re installed a few times to no avail. The readme included in 2.1.0.5. has no Na Pali specific instructions for patching. As was, just patching Na Pali to 226 made it screw up. What I did was dump all of the files in the 2.1.0.5. patch into the Na Pali/System dir, and now I have a nice UT like menu system, and the updated OpenGL rendering.

maybe a good idea to note, that napali patched with 226b is almost equal to gold...and original napali is almost 224...

Ryan, I should've mentioned that I patched it to 226b, then applied the opengl patch after reinstalling. I guess, whatever works......

Smirftsch, you say 226b is almost gold. What differences are there between gold, and a patched napali ?
Also, thanks for the work you are putting into the patches. D3D is so poor in unreal (& ut). Opengl takes me back to '98 when I was playing unreal on my 3dfx voodoo1 card.

i don't own a version of UnrealGold, so i can't say it exactly --> to be carefull i said it's almost the same --> at least with the maps its a lil bit different because napali doesn't contain the original Unreal maps....:)
