Spring RTS Engine

Someone on CT's modDB said that units won't render when they try to play. Here is their post:

Hi, I've just got the game up and running on my comp. Everything works fine, except for the fact that i can't see any of my units, or the enemy's. I can still select them and give them orders, and i see small round shadows where the unit should be. any one have a solution to this problem?

And he was kind enough to e-mail me his infolog. I see some errors in there that I've never experienced. My first shot in the dark reaction was video drivers, but I honestly don't know. I'll let the person know I posted this here, but any thoughts?

yes, its gfx drivers.
it also fails to create lots of shader objects.

Intel(R) Heavily Deranged Graphics

If someone has intel graphics, tell them it's a video card problem and to get an actual 3d video card.

You can get a capable video card for 20 bucks.

Hi guys, I'm the (not so proud) owner of the Intel® HD Graphics card and the problem. Thanks for your feedback! Just hoped there were other solutions than buying another graphics card. Thanks!

Forb: that is not a viable solution as it seems many people stuck with the damn cards are on laptops.

Ah, thanks for the help! I will try to remember that for future non-spring community bug reports.

I'm stuck with these video cards? Crap. I guess i can't play conflict terra and like 5 other games i have on my laptop...
