Hello all. I have spent a little while on getting GZ to work, I finally did, and then downloaded the SNES pack 1 to test it out. I start up GZ, set up my guitar, pick any of the songs, and it say something like "Error, video card does not support mipmap textures" then it says something about numberlevels or something? Does this mean I need a new video card? I just want to play, my Elite just RRoD'ed, and I can't play Rock Band.  Please help!! |

There's an option in config.xml to turn off mipmap. If you don't want to edit it directly, go to the download section and get the toolkit which can do it for you.
I think using the rockband mod (in the modpack section) will fix this as well but I'm not sure about that.

Mipmap?

as far as I know mipmapping is a performance booster by using smaller textures that are further away to save memory and the gfx card doesnt have to process as much. However video cards have been able to handle it since at least 2003. So if your video card isnt a GeForce FX 5x00 series or an ATi Radeon 9x00 series, or later (GeForce 6+, or GeForce GTX 2x0 on the nVidia side, or Radeon Xx00 to Radeon HD on the ATi Side) then you're out of luck in that dept. However yes, you can disable it, and honestly I dont know why mipmapping is an option, theres very little actual 3D in the game, and mipmapping is only useful texturing 3D objects, again, far away.

I have an Ati Radeon 9000 series and the game is still sending the same error message.
I went to config.xml and got mipmap in false, but still isn't working. Plis help!

Try getting the rock band mod; ther problem might actually be with cubemap textures and the RB mod doesn't use these (nice choice of songs to test out, hope you like them if the game works for you)/
