The smelter will be functional when crafting is added.  It will be required to turn iron ore into iron ingots.
Good thats what i thought... Anything you can see from the error file?

I need to stop being on these forums... I'm getting myself all excited too early.

From the error file: "Failed to find ARB pixel format 1 0"

Looks like for whatever reasons, those settings and what I'm trying to send to the card don't work for x16.  I'm not really sure why.  Unfortunately, this is not something that I can easily detect and if I could it's not something I can easily remove from that option drop down right now.

Vertical Sync, basically syncs the frame-rate with your Monitor's Framerate. (Which is usually 60Hz, sometimes you could have 120-160Hz. Remember, Hz is basically FPS if you wanted to know that) Most of the time, It decreases FPS trying to sync, but also prevents screen ripping, when the monitor doesn't update the pixels with what's going on with the screen in-time. I keep It off for max framerate.

Moonkey has it right.  If you weren't getting at least 60 FPS before then it can actually slow you down more.  For example, if you were consistently getting 50 FPS before turning on vsync then it could drop to 45 or even 30 depending on why it was lagging.  If it takes longer to draw a single frame than 1/60 th of a second then it will skip a second one trying to finish.

Undo what you did to make is slower? Wink

You probably already know all of the ways to make it faster and the methods have been discussed here a few times already.  F8, F12, /flora low, etc.

What settings do you use when you run?  Maybe you changed something there and forgot.

I'm very aware of that. My older laptop could have a resolution of 1920x1600 - 320x120. It supported so many resolutions Smiley.
