"Pixel format not accelerated" when I could play before and drivers are updated.

[ta0021]

Hello.

I have attempted playing with my friends on build 40.43 but it's been giving me the above error. My graphics are preeetty old but I used to be able to play back in build 37 something. Did the requirements increase or is something else going on?

Here is my console.txt, sorry for the website but pastebin has been giving trouble lately. https://ctxt.io/2/AABAKbEJFg

I tried that and it didn't work so I rolled back to a 37 build and it booted up fine. I guess it's just the requirements.

It could be, you can try following a bit of this guide as well:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/108600/discussions/0/1642041886384670344/

I would recommend downloading the options.ini file from there, as it disables certain settings like 3D models which could be causing the crashes,

The specifications did rise from the few versions, version 39 was a jump and now version 41 is another jump in requirements because of the animations.
The console does seem to cut off, so could you upload the whole file again? You can just attach it to your message, no need for the pastebin on the forums.
Also, could you tell us what your system specifications are as well? Your graphics card, OS, etc.

Here is the full thing, my bad.

Can you make sure to download and install the drivers again? This issue happens on outdated drivers or even outdated graphics cards, if necessary, you might have to uninstall the current driver.

Link to your driver (based on the CPU, you should have the HD 2000 graphics card):
