Pearl Simulator

[damliteguy]

I've just started using the simulator, to learn the console for a show I have at the end of the week and i canot get the wheels to move. The other problem I have is the simulator crashes every time I load it up. It seems to be a problem with mym graphics card on my lap top. its a ATI Mobility Readeon 9000. The program seem to work fine if I drag it to an external monitor. With the exeption of not being able to move the wheels. Any help would be great. Thanks

Caution ! Caution ! Caution !
Check you have a matching 'r20' file in the personalities folder for all your 'vis' files in the extensions folder.
If you do not, Visualiser may crash on start up.

perhaps you will find a solution

There is a problem with some ATI graphics cards that can cause the simulator to not work correctly or at all. The problem is limited to only ATI chipsets.

To fix this problem you can try installing the latest graphics card drivers, in most cases this fixes the problem. However if the simulator still does not work then you have to disable the enhanced drivers for your graphics card. To do this go to Control Panel | Display | Settings | Advanced | Troubleshoot and turn the Hardware Acceleratiopn down by one notch. After this the simulator should work correctly.

Let me know how you get on and if you have any problems.
