Title: Death Realm Bug.
Post by: Gavvie Strand on December 30, 2008, 12:26:53 am

I've looked at other posts and used the search and I can't find any thing to help me.

I Hate The Death Realm!!! But now I hate it even more. I'm on a new computer and have just re-downloaded plainshift. But when I get to the DR The graphics get all weird. Like this:

I'm running Mac PPC 10.4.11

Thanks.

what are your system stats?
if you dont know how to get your system stats use the system stats app linked here
http://planeshift.caarrie.org/Utilities.html
also you can try the first utility on that page and run the texture compression fix and see if that helps and report back with this and the other info.

Okay these are my stats:

CPU Type: PowerPC G4  (2.8)
      Machine Name: Power Mac G4
      Machine Model: PowerMac3,3
      Memory: 640 MB
      Chipset Model: ATY,Rage128Pro
      VRAM (Total): 16 MB
          Resolution: 1024 x 768 @ 60 Hz
ProductVersion:   10.4.11

Also when I did the texture compression, the game loads up to the point with the picture of the man and the hut then quits.

EDIT: Okay so now the game loads but the death realm is still the same.

kudos on the screenshot though, helps people help you (or at least find the answer in any event).

I rp'ed that Bamko was virtually blind, until I got a got a new video card that enabled me to see better.  Then my computer burnt up, and my newer computer was bad, got it better with new drivers, but frankly my old computer with a better card looked better.

Yup, just can not take a lawnmower on the expressway, no matter how cool it looks with the flame decals.  A new card might help ya, but not free, of course.
