i cannot get the game to work... - ced117 - 11-27-2007

Hi,

i just tried to play the demo of Penumbra: Overture on my laptop.
I dont know why but when i start the game, after the little intro, i get a black screen....

Any idea what it can be ?

Could you post the HPL log here? I can't read GZ files; different than the normal HPL log.

Also, post your PC specs.


RE: i cannot get the game to work... - ced117 - 11-27-2007

I just attached another file Smile

My pc spec are:
Processor: Celeron 1.8 Ghz
Ram: 512MB
Graphic card: Intel i950
Linux Distribution: openSUSE 10.3 x86

Unfortunately the Intel graphics card is not capable of running Penumbra, so it won't be possible to play the game on that computer.
