Running DF Server without 3D Video card


Greetings!

Very nice site. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to run a Delta Force server without a 3D Video card. I have a dedicated server that I would like to host games on, however, I do not want to have to go and buy a PCI Video card to get DF to run. Quake/Unreal and those all have switches/commands that allow you to run a server in console only mode, but I have not found a way to do it with Delta Force. Any suggestions?

Thank you.

I dont think its possible. .I am pretty sure DF has a check for 3d video on game startup.. so basically even the server machine NEEDS 3d video. . not very smart on Novalogic's part if I am right..

Unfortunately. .I am pretty sure I am. . If you end up finding out any different. .please post what you find. .

Yeah, I'm still working on it. I tried to edit the ghw.txt file to make it think it passed the video tests, but when I tried to launch the game, it gave me a sysdump.txt error. Still trying..... if anyone can figure out what to put into this file to make it work, let me know.

Thank you!
