Help! I cannot play the game :P

[Hombre_Pollo]

Well, not really. The game launches, but what I see is a white scrreen and the game options. I can go through every menu without problems but always with the white screen.
I create a character and when the game begins, what I see is my character floating on an empy space.
So, any tips about how to solutionate this?

What are your specs? I know if you are running with Intel graphics you will get a white screen.

If your system is Intel integrated chip , the solution is only wait next patch coming ,and it may half of months or one ~ two months later,

Finally fixed.
Don't have any idea how. I though it could be a problem with the drivers and updated them, but didn't got any results. Tried again from the system options and sudendly worked :s
I can play alrigth now, but I swear to god that I don't understand how. Cause the previous update I had tried came from the offcial drivers of my card :p

[Hombre_Pollo]

Update.
♥♥♥♥♥♥ up again...
I just don't get it. Yesterday worked fine, and now the game won't even launch...

Same, white screen, nothing else. I like steam because this normally doesn't happen, I am starting to lose faith :( But I do have intergrated intell junk. Guess I have to wait and hope.

[michaelbcurtis]

I ahve the stupid integrated intel graphics, is there a reliable graphics card I can get that won't have so many problems?

[LeMarc]

waaaaaaaaaaaaaah I will freak out! I spent the last days to play the game normally. I've played 20 hours. And today, I start the game, and crash. I have uninstalled the game and reinstalled, also does not work. No workaround helps, nothing helps. I'm really angry ...

You might have to wait awhile. Everything related to BG is "paused" until they resolve contract issues (check out "Dee's" second comment here http://forum.baldursgate.com/discussion/19376/announcement-baldur-s-gate-enhanced-edition-has-been-temporarily-removed-from-sale/p2).

The reason you couldent play is because of a resalution glitch, if it ever happens again just press alt+enter to go into windowed, close the game and start it up again in widowed mode and it will work. you can press alt+enter again to get fullscreen mode after starting and it will work

In the top thread i read that pressing the Windows key to return to Windows and then going back to the game also helps. *doesn't own the game, though*

Hey, the tips from this guy ACTUALLY WORKED! Try it out. https://lairofsentinel.tumblr.com/post/618452086066135040

In short:
1. Remove/uninstall your current OpenAL from control panel
2. Go to https://www.openal.org to download the latest OpenAL file
3. Install the downloaded file
4. Run the game smoothly as ever

Did you really just reply to a 10 year old topic, just for that?
