I don't really know.. but it sounds like a D3D or OpenGL problem...

attempt running in GL vs. D3D or vice versa... or just turn down your graphic acceleration that might help...

I was going to say "search the forums before you ask", but this one is actually quite hard to find. Couldn't find it in the FAQ either ... should defenitely be in there.

Anyway, check this topic: http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=1393 and read zwzsg's post.

hi, thanx...

but ive tried every way possible it just doesnt work... so please i need some advice :
1. Do this problem is windows XP exclusive and not happened on ME?
2. Do this problem happened to ATI RADEON 9000 which I plan to purchase ?

thx 1000x in advance

Triaxx knows of this problem. Triaxx is wise to it's ways.

What I'm saying, is I know exactly what the problem is. Your video card does not support DirectX9, and so it can't access the file it's talking about. My Voodoo3 has the exact same problem. Your new card should be able to do it.

It's not really a DirectX problem, it's an OpenGL problem, spring doesn't use direct3D for graphics.

normally, you can see which graphics cards support which extensions at
http://www.delphi3d.net/hardware/ but the database seems offline atm.

basically any graphics card starting with radeon 7000 or a geforce1 will support GL_ARB_texture_env

I had the same problem when running windowed. But it works fine when i switched to fullscreen for some reason, don't know why.

Wierd bug

ok, I just downloaded TAspring, and I got the same error ('needed extension GL_ARB_texture_env_combine not found') mentioned earlier in this thread. I skimmed through the error topics on this website, read the readme, and checked out other websites, and I'm not finding a solution to the problem. Could I get some advice?

I have a Compaq, it runs an AMD 2.2 GH processor with 512 MB of ram. The graphics card is a Radion 9550 (256 MB)

I tried downloading the extension from OpenGL's website (in the previous post) but it said it wasn't compatible with any card or something like that.
I'm not very computer adept, so if I could get a simple solution it would be helpful.

Thanks :)

Have you tried downloading the most recent radeon driver from the ATI website? It's not your card for sure, a radeon 9550 supports GL_ARB_texture_env_combine

My 9550 128mb runs Spring fine with all the nobs and whistles on a 1.4Ghz CPU and 512mb SD RAM
