Open GL Help

I’m having trouble getting Ur-Quan Masters to run in open gl

The switch (-o) is there and but the game still appears pixilated.  In fact, I see no difference in image quality if the opengl switch is there or not.

What am I missing?

You have to tell it to use a filter if you want to see the smoother graphics.

When using OpenGL you can have hardware acceleration. Also, more video modes are supported. For the rest, it is the same.
Use the '-c' option (see the manual) for different interpolation algorithms.

It works now that I added the bilinear filter switch.  It’s much better and I can even run at 800x600 resolution.  I tired 1024 x 768 but it wouldn’t work.
