VS 0.5.0 Crashed After Launch from Hangar

[Tuviks]

Dear all,

First, I want to introduce myself. My name is Dwi Santoso. I am in Indonesia. I am reporting problem of my VS.

I know VS since version 0.4.3 and I am very excited about its newer version (0.5.0). My VS 0.5.0 installation process was successfull. It can be run until I saw the hangar but after I click launch, VS displayed the cockpit and crashed. I have tried re-install it for 5 times and all attempts have been unsuccessfull. My computer configuration is:
Unit : Acer Aspire 4736Z (notebook)
Proc : Intel Pentium T4200 2.0 GHz
HDD : 250 GByte
RAM : 1 GByte DDR3
VGA : Intel GMA 4500M
O/S = Windows XP Pro Edition SP3

Could you help me to fix this problem?
Thank you.

is your graphics card updated? can you play other openGL games?

Intel GMA - that has brought some trouble in the past.

First I'd make sure you have texture compression disabled in your config file. If you had 0.4.3 installed, you may still have the old config laying around - I don't know, it's been a long time since I played in Windows.

Anyway, search the config file for "texture_compression" and make sure it says false everywhere.

Don't forget to also update your drivers. That's always a good thing.
