Gzdoom - no screen

Post by Spectre »

After I start gzdoom & select wad it blinks for sec as if it would start as normal but then I am back on desktop. Sounds plays,
when I move cursors I can heard sounds I can play the game but there is no video or screen or how should I say it.
The icon is in taskbar but when I click it nothing happens. Rarely, instead of just no screen at all, there is black screen.
Zdoom works normal and I´m using ATI GPU.

What kind of ATI-GPU? Do you any kind of info in the startup log? You can output that by adding '+logfile log' to the command line.

Command line, you mean console or what?

Probably the easiest way for you...

Make a shortcut to gzdoom.exe.
add +logfile log.txt to the command line in the shortcut.
Run the game.
Quit.
Open log.txt - a file that will have been created in your GZDoom directory.
Post the contents here.

It sounds like the same weird bug that I had on that benchmarking thread, I got a black screen, console, menu, titlepic wasn't being showed, but the mouse icon was there, I could select things, and when I entered on the map I could see the menu and the console O_o...
The same bug didnt happened on intel gpu

EDIT:
and, when you start the game and press the Fx button that you go back to titlepic, you can see the menu, title image and console...
as requested, here's the logfile
