Ive tried un-installing and reinstalling the driver, several downgrades to the driver, and Ive tried upgrading the driver to its current version (6.5). I have no idea what the problem could be the problem. If anyone has any idea what is goin on. could you please help me.

Dont use the current Radeon drivers. I have a X300, I upgraded it, and none of my games work right, and neither does planetside.

Also had the same problem. Running the game in windowed-mode seems to be a great temporary fix though. (At least it works for me.)

I have tried re-installing the game, direct x & my graphics driver, but it's still fucked up, guess there's nothing left to do but quit the game, too bad I already paid for a month of play time.

Can't afford a new video card atm. and as for the drivers, I need the latest one to run World of Warcraft properly.

Dear Fellow PSUer,

I have the solution for you.

I previously had a Radeon x800xtx and when I tried to play PlanetSide Reserves, I had the same problems as you and decided to delete the game and give up.

I recently bought a x1900xtx and when I tried to play PlanetSide Reserves, I had the same problems as you, again, this time I didn't give up and looked at some forums and found a solution.

What you have to do is, go to your PlanetSide directory and find a file called "engine3d_options.ini" and open it with Notepad (or any plain text editor) and find a the entry "use_managed_vbs", it should say "false". To fix the problem, change the "false" to "true" (without quotes). Make sure the spacing is kept the same.

This fixed my problem and I bought the game. :D

:D

I have the exact same problem..

I have a dualcore and a ASUS EAX Radeon 9600 PRO.

Here's an interesting new bit of data tho:
If you run FRAPS (the recorder) when you hit record, the problem disappears. The framerate drops from 80 to 30, but thepolygons return. I suppose this means the game is running too fast? Anyway, I tried setting it to 30 fps, but that didn't work.
