Graphics Card not recognizing!!

[plutomaniac]

Tansaydar can you move this thread to Amnesia support forum and not in the Penumbra one?

Now, this problem is explained in the support thread and I quote it:

Check the hpl.log found in the the game's save directory:

Windows: "My Documents/Amnesia/"
Linux: ".frictionalgames/Amnesia/"
Mac: "Library/Application Support/Frictional Games/Amnesia/"

and see if you see something like:

Quote:"Renderer: GDI Generic
Version: 1.1.0"

If so, this means that OpenGL uses an integrated card instead of your proper graphics card. There are there known ways to fix this:

1) Go into the "device manager" which is found by entering System in Control Panel and then clicking on the "Hardware". Find the display drivers and the right click on the card that is NOT your main graphics card, and choose disable. Reboot and try again.

2) Update the drivers for the integrated card. For example updating drivers for "Enhanced Display Driver Helper (ASUS Other Device)" has been reported to fix this issue.

3) Enter the control panel for the graphics card and set the proper (non-integrated) card as the preffered device to use. Here is how it looks for a user(nvidia): http://frictionalgames.com/forum/thread-...l#pid34691

4) Enter Display Properties and make sure that the desktop color depth is 32.

So, attach us here the file HPL.log if you cannot understand how to find what you need from it. It can be found under Documents\Amnesia\Main folder. Also, what operating system do you have? Have you installed the latest game patch(v1.2)?
