@svenanders Yes, Chromium with HW acceleration runs at 60 FPS on my Debian laptop. As always, Firefox seems to lack some video optimizations. Good to know, and thanks for the tip!

@HerrNove If you haven't already, try activating hardware acceleration in your browser. If you're on a recent laptop, that should give you some better performance. In Chrome you'll find it here: chrome://settings/system

Works now, but it's the obsolete version, not the current one in which Mr. HerrNove fixed the graphics. Anyway, I also object to rape, murder etc., but everybody with his own opinion, which we must respect. @HerrNove: No, the Acer Aspire 3000 is from 2005, not 2011, it has a 32-bit Sempron CPU, I use it mostly to compile some programs for Window$ (with Wine, of course), and right now I'm using a computer with Pentium 4 650 64 bit CPU from ~2006. The Asus Eee PC (CPU Atom N455) is from 2011.

@Taxidriver Your report helped me find a problem in how the game handled unavailable graphics. I’ve updated it so the introduction and demo switch to original graphics rather than stopping or repeatedly retrying. It also shows a clear explanation. This doesn’t fix the underlying Firefox/driver issue, but should let the game continue without changing your security settings. Thanks for helping out!

@taxidriver Thanks, that error gives me something concrete to investigate, so I won’t ask for more details for now. It points to a failure while Firefox initializes the graphics, although it doesn’t establish the exact cause. I’ll also look at how the game handles that failure. I understand your point better now: you object to proprietary software and corporate dependence more broadly, not just Microsoft’s past actions. You don’t have to agree with my choice of tools, and I respect your decision not to use the project.

Hi Taxi, i'm using chrome and i had to enable the hardware accelleration of the browser and now it's good. Thanks @Alain for your run
. Tomorrow I will try to take your Carrera 1st place on the default -
@TaxiDriver Are you still using your Acer Aspire 3000 from 2011? I think this would be a very relevant info to share with @svenanders, since your PC might very well be outside the target spec of the web version. /// @Marco WebGL is not dangerous, just a little more demanding than DOSBox in terms of hardware (PlayStunts runs at 30 FPS on my laptop, less than modernish Unity games like Disco Elysium).

"WebGL creation failed: * GL error 0x500 occurred during WebGL context initialization! (FEATURE_FAILURE_WEBGL_GLERR_2)", but you already ask a lot... The introduction of the game ran a little before that error, but it was very slow and some other factors might be involved, like video drivers etc. I don't have a "concern about Microsoft’s history". Anyone can see that Micro$oft must be avoided if you know what's good for you, and of course, nonfree software in general, not just Micro$oft, which spreads like disease. Github now belongs to Micro$oft, the money for Firefox comes mostly from G***le etc. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/may/22/malware-viruses-companies-preinstall

@Taxidriver Could you open about:support in Firefox and send just the “WebGL 2 Driver Renderer” entry under Graphics, plus your Firefox version? It may explain why the graphics couldn’t start. No need to change any security settings.
