JuiCe, hi again. I've spent the last two hours reading and testing non-stop the commands suggested in that forum for Portal. Unfortanetely, none of them could make the game doesn't crash.
Something of importante relevance, is that I have, at the moment, a Non-steam version of the game. That means that I don't have access to the 'launch options' that steam features. These commands I'm inserting on the text field "Destination" (Or another name close to that), which is located in the shortcut. For example: Destination: [ "C:\...\Portal\hl2.exe" -steam -game portal -dxlevel 90 +mat_forcehardwaresync 0 ] I actually don't know if this is the right way to input those commands, and I really hope it isn't, since I could still have some hope :(( I wonder how Killa Fairy managed to run the game perfectly, and I not. His/her system is pretty much the same as mine. I'm deeply sad T__T On 21 abr, 18:33, JuiCe <[email protected]> wrote: > First things first. > > Are You running XP or Vista or W7? > > Secundo: > > I have some bad and some good news. > > The good one - it is quite possible that You will find your solution > in a form of startup parameter > here:http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=623213 > > The bad one - You will propably have to read through a lot of pages to > find yours.
