Re: Window 7 graphs
I had the same problem when I switched to Win7. Just install the most recent driver for your video card and the problem is gone.

You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.

If that doesn't help, run without OpenGL enabled (you can add the --no-opengl switch or edit the config file and set opengl to 0).

I ran vista for a few days and all i did was install the regular windows installer for windows and it would run just fine. I am a ubuntu user thoughSilverquimera wrote:Sorry,,, but...

It's under your user folder, in the .tmw folder. You can also change your shortcut to have --no-opengl after the executable (outside the quotes) and then disable OpenGL in the settings dialog.Silverquimera wrote:Sorry,,, but...

Re: Window 7 graphs
I've posted this a few times long ago but I thought I'd chime in again to help out anybody who may be running Windows and reading this.
OpenGL drivers for Intel / ATI chipsets are broken on windows, especially Intel. ATI does better but the extension support is crap.
If you're running Windows, any flavor, and you've got either an Intel or ATI graphics chipset (many cheap desktops and just about all laptops that aren't high end) you'll get a proper display and often much faster performance if you run in SDL/Software mode. I have not experienced this issue on any Windows machines with nVidia chipsets. The problem seems to only affect certain ATI chipsets but not others (I haven't identified which models seem to work and which don't).
It would seem that TMW defaults to OpenGL mode which generally works on Linux machines but is dodgy on cheap computers running Windows. Updated video drivers will generally not fix the problem. You will have to edit your configuration file as stated in an earlier post.
