Title: Blank Inventory Icons and Other Oddities (Vista)
Post by: Marqsaynt on July 01, 2008, 12:43:19 am

Running Windows Vista Home Premium. Downloaded the latest drivers from Intel, fixed the largest problems with the graphics but, still have some strange things going on.

1. In the updater and the options in game, anything that requires a check bubble is un-selectable, and the sliders aren't really "clickable" but, can scroll with the mouse. Buttons work fine.

2. Every inventory icon is just a white box! If there is no icon assigned to an item it's not white but the normal empty icon with an inventory amount number in the corner.

Thanks!

Edit: Oh, and this doesn't have anything to do with the recent update, I just got a new computer about a month ago and it's had the same graphics issues from the beginning. Thanks again. :)

Been over a month and seems either this just got buried or no one has any idea what the problem is...

If anyone even has a clue what might be causing this, I'd sure appreciate hearing some theories and ideas on how to fix this bug. Heck, I'd even be happy with a that's Intel's problem, <insert glitchy thing here> doesn't work right, you're just out of luck response. :P

I figure with all you computer geniuses playing PS at least a few of you might have an idea what's wrong.

Thanks again!

Thank you Caarie!

Seems what was causing all that trouble was just a semi-colon.

I fixed the white box problem by changing in ../data/config/r3dopengl.cfg

in the ; disable the use of certain opengl extentions

delete the ; in front of Video.OpenGL.UseExtension.GL_ARB_texture_compression  = false

sorry don't know how to insert this nice code boxes in the message.

good luck with it

I Did what Blurch here suggested and suddenly, I have icons! Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
