matt_132 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 ok, so i want to watch every one of my matches in tv view from the moment i press continue after my team talk. But... sometimes it shows classic view. sometimes it shows overview screen. very rarely it actually shows tv view. i know its not a major problem its just major annoyance having to press the tv view button every time. Please tell me theres a solution! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbsoluteGenius Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 It does this to me sometimes and I have no idea why. It also does it when I want to watch some goal highlights of a finished match. I always miss the first goal because of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
anagain Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 In the pre-match build up go to the bottom left of the screen and select TV view there. I have found the game sometimes gets confused, for want of a better word, and forgets to remain in TV view. Like AbsoluteGenius said it may have something to do with watching highlights as they run in classic view. What I suggested always fixes things for me. The next match will appear in TV view. Also, in the pre-match build up, you may flick through the different screens (line-ups, pre-match assessment and ass man stuff - yeah, I forget the actual names but I'm sure you're with me). Don't move to team talk if you are still on ass man thoughts, but select line-ups. I find that causes the game to switch out of TV view. No idea why. It may be that the ass man screen is on the match screen as well, and the line ups isn't. Selecting headings from the menu on match screen will reset you back to classic view. Like I said, I dunno. It's odd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

anagain Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 i will try that. ^^i think it is when i change the tactics or opposition instructions that it happens. Yeah sounds like the game's saved view has changed and the first idea I suggested should help. On the first build up screen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FM_blade Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Hi, I've got a problem with my game that i hope someone might be able to help me with. Just got the FM2009 and got it loaded up, started a new game and in middle of pre-season friendlies, but i cant seem to get the 3D match to play for me. When i'm watching the games it is played in the classic 2D format and the little drop down menu where you change it to the 3D mode is unavailable to click on! Any ideas guys? Cheers in advance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers in advance Does your system meet the minimum specs? If not, then it's quite possible to be the reason Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FM_blade Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Yeah i think it does, is there any other potential reasons for this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftg87 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Yeah i think it does, is there any other potential reasons for this? Have you checked that your graphics card specifically meets the requirements? This would cause the 3D not to work Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
T4RG4 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 The view can often change for no obvious reason. I'm assuming its just another bug. I never use TV mode, yet my matches sometimes kick-off in this view Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FM_blade Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Can't say i have, but my laptop is brand new, only got it for xmas, so i presume it is up to scratch. Surely if the graphics card wasnt good enough, or any of the other specs didnt measure up, the game would simply not load? It just seems weird how the drop down menu is unavailable, cant seem to figure out why though. I just thought i may have missed something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily, it's possible to play the game with a graphics card that doesn't meet the requirements but the 3D will not work TBH, I don't know enough about this to advise you any further, my best suggestion is to look through this thread, as I am sure that this is a fairly common issue and that a solution should be in there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FM_blade Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 No probs, cheers pal. One small question that you may be able to help me out with- Where can i find out what my graphics card is like? and what is the min requirements for the game in terms of the graphics card? Checked all the other requirements listed in the booklet and matches up to them, but no idea about the graphics card. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers in advance Have you somehow accidentally turned off the 3D cameras in preferences? Perhaps it turns off by default if your system isn't good enough to run the 3D. Could try turning it on but may not be pretty. What are your system specs, FM_blade? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go start > run. Type in dxdiag and click OK. The front page will tell you your memory and processor. If you then click on display it will tell you your graphics card. This is for XP. I assume it is the same with Vista. You can also go into control panel and open 'System' to display your processor and memory. 'Display' will show your graphics card if you go to the settings tab.

ftg87 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 As you are using a new comp, I'm assuming that you are using Vista? If so, click Start and then in the search box, type dxdiag, then run the only thing it should find, once it has loaded, click on the display tab and it should tell you there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trueblue Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 If you find your Graffics card is a little on the low side mate,,try the link to the program on this website below,,might help give a little boost.

FM_blade Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Hi, Right, i think my graphics card is called Mobility Radeon 7500, is that good enough for the 3D display? Cheers for the link pal, may need to use that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FM_blade Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Actually, ignore that previous post, i'm not currently on the pc i've got my game installed on! The graphics card on that is the following: Mobile Intel® 915GM/GMS,910GML Express It has a memory of 128MB, which i think fits the requirements for the game, as i think a video card is the same thing, which it states needs to be 128MB. Is that right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that right? From the back of the box I can see that your graphics is right on the minimum requirements for the game (says Intel 82915G), but I'm not really familiar with Intel. I'm guessing it might not be good enough for the 3D. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
