I bought a new computer two months ago and since then I never was able to launch vegastrike in win98. So I waited for a new version and here it is and still it crashes in the same manner (immediately after starting):
VEGASTRIKE verursachte einen Fehler durch eine ungültige Seite

The computer:
Win98 SE
on a Athlon 2400+XP
512 MB Ram 266
MSI nforce2 motherboard
need other data?
No sound card, using onboard nforce2 chip (which seems to be crappy).
Any idea what's wrong with my system?
cu, Runner
p.s.: I suspect the soundchip to cause the troubles... What does openal32.dll anyway?
VS crashing on startup for versions 0.3.1 and 0.3.9 in Win98

turn off sound then try it
does that help
it shouldn't touch the OpenAL module
otherwise run that *EAX.exe program that's in the data directory
or download and install openal.org's mdoules

run it in windowed mode
run setup.exe
turn off sound FX
turn on windowed mode (windowed 32 bit mode)
what vidcard have you
this should fix the problem--it's a driver problem otherwise your computer wouldn't hang

so you started in window mode
then it waits for about 5 minutes to load...
but usually it changes which texture it loads
does it have a name when it stops working
it gets stops responding while it's generating the dynamic u niverse
