Flconfigdatabase.txt

Is there a new flconfigdatabase.txt available that will allow an AMD Radeon HD 6870 graphics card to play FL ?
I’ve been an avid player since FL came out….my new build won’t let me play…urgh!
-
You can add in your own entries pretty easy, just do a google search on “graphics card vendor ID” and there are quite a few lists. Here’s the relevant search result on what looks like a decent site: Radeon HD card list

Thanks Mini_me.
I tried putting info listed for my card into the “flconfigdatabase.txt” file….still getting “FL did not detect a 3D capable video card in your system” error.
Any suggestions? Is there another way to fix this? -
Here’s my entry to the text file “flconfigdatabase” …

I’m having similar issues only i am using an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460. i have looked up the vendor id for the card, but i am not positive i got the correct one. none the less even after having added it to flconfigdatabase.txt i still get a error that reads “Freelancer did not detect a 3D capable video card in your system. If you have a 3D capable video card installed please try rebooting. You may need to re install the game.”

try this out this works for my gtx 560 ti http://the-starport.net/freelancer/download/singlefile.php?cid=1&lid=2

sry for diggin up this oldy here, but i ran into kinda weird problem :S
im using a gtx 660ti alongside the nvidia latest driver.
FL works fine in windowed mode … but in Fullscreen i got the Error that no 3D capable video card was found
…i tried all the different flconfigdatabas.txts i could find and still no magic
-
The not capable error occurs after flconfigdatabase has already been used, so changing it’s not going to help any. What appears to be happening is that it tries to create a 1024x768x32 screen (or whatever your perfoptions has), then falls back to 800x600x32 and 800x600x16. If it can’t create any, then you get the not capable error (%LOCALAPPDATA%\Freelancer\flspew.txt may say why). All I can suggest is putting your desktop resolution into perfoptions.ini (in your documents folder, then My Games\Freelancer; you’ll find the size setting down the bottom) and hoping that works. If it already has your desktop resolution, then idk.
-
& maybe check if your perfoptions.ini magicly got “read-only”.
I once ran into this case and after changing it back to writable i could use all the funky resolutions i made up again

Hi,
If nobody else has undertaken this I may work on issuing a new flconfigdatabase.txt for the latest nvidia cards, because Raumpirat’s additions to Louva-Deus’s additions are wrong - cards misidentified, etc.
If someone can get me a master list of PCI IDs for ATI cards, I would greatly appreciate it.
