Hi all,

A new release of Toribash: 3.23 is available.
Toribash should automatically update itself to this version soon.
(It cannot be downloaded from the website yet)

This version features better compatibility for graphics cards.

Try setting Fluid Blood, Reflections, Soft shadows and shaders to 1.
Toribash will detect if you cannot support one of the extra features, and will use a lower level of graphics to match your card.
You should only disable these options if you want to increase game performance.

Your graphics card can't run with shaders on ?

The following cards should be able to run Toribash with shaders on:

Intel 915 and above
nVidia Geforce 6 series and above
ATI Radeon X series (X300 onwards) and above

If you have one of these cards (or better) and it fails to run with shaders on,
make sure you have the latest drivers for your graphics card (can be downloaded from the card manufacturer's website)


if it still fails to run shaders:
