Graphic card question...

User58 · 2003-09-04, 08:37 PM

Does anyone keep getting those strange graphic glitches where there are these shards, or lines shooting everywhere preventing one from seeing anything? I'm running XP Pro SP1 with a ti 4200 (GeForce4 64M)

Is there something in settings either in the game or the card I can do to get past this?
It's really blowin' my high... Don't say get a better card because I am in about a week or so. Maybe a Radeon 9700 or the likes.

PS> I posted this in game discussion but thought it belonged here instead.

Any help is greatly appreciated as I think this game has great potential.

I never heard of this bug...hmm...you might wanna try tweaking ur in game graphic settings...

Edit: You also might wanna try downloading new drivers for your vid card, and what Direct X version do you have?

Did you OC that card?

Sounds to me like you are OC'ing to much.

I'm not oc'ing at all. I run it at 1024 x 768 on a 19' CRT. I turn flora off, shadows and just about everything I can think of. I'm thinking of turning the game off pretty soon. It's like a fucking part time job.
As a matter of fact, I usually run it at Recommended on top of turning all that other crap off.

The only other thing I would try on top of the Omega drivers, is this.

Go to your desktop, right click, and bring up the properties menu. Click on the settings tab then on the advanced button. You should see another window with a couple more tabs on it. On one of those tab sheets are options such as anti-aliasing and such; disable all of these. There will also be either a slider or check box to adjust quality verses performance. Set everything to performance.
