game crash on virtual server

Post by vonmaurer » 2022-12-31 11:51, Saturday

Hi there,

first time on this new forum.
Long time pg2 fan (since '98 if I remember right) and last played OG in 2013 but decided to give it another run now.
I have an unused virtual server with 1G of ram and win7 on Oracle Cloud (probably on top of linux kvm if anyone is concerned)
I've downloaded the full installer and run it but it crashes with a strange error:

Could it be because there is no 3d card (not even a virtualized one?

Thank you very much for your work.

P.S. Actually started my activity around here with a 5e donation (m*****.d******@yahoo.**.**) to help out as well

:welcome to the forum vonmaurer

Surely the lack of the video card is the problem as SDL2 uses video memory to work
