Texture and or graphic issue
« on: April 16, 2008, 02:44:34 am »
Hello and thank you for this game.

I apologize for my lack of knowledge in this area, and to be honest I searched a little on this topic but maybe not as much as I should.
Just a little impatient only due to time constraints but that is no excuse....
The game will not load the textures for any individual or environment. It simply looks like a bunch of funky colored or even dark shapes and sizes.

Windows OS: XP - SP2
RAM: 512 MB
CPU: Pent. III 1.4Ghz
Gfx card: Nvidia GeForce FX 5200
Gfx card has 128 MB
Yes, it is the latest driver, it was released December of 2007

I had tried all variations of the PSsetup program to see if that would help, no dice.
I had even went into Nvidia control panel and selected the game and made sure that the Gfx card allowed it use of the Open GL.

At the moment I hit a wall, and needed a fresh look at it. I appreciate the hard work and dedication into this project and hope I haven't just overlooked something stupid.
Thank you for the assist.

Not totally sure about this, but I think your card may not have a sufficiently modern chipset to handle the lighting in the new client. Someone else should be able to confirm this for you though.

I've played with an FX5200 in the past - it's more than the required minimum. Unfortunately, all of the previous problems of the sort you describe have been driver-related, so I myself don't have any suggestions :( Were the latest drivers installed after you realized you have this issue (and possibly over the old, without uninstalling them)?
Judge: Are you trying to show contempt for this court, Mr Smith?
Smith: No, My Lord. I am attempting to conceal it.

These problems are with the newest driver.

I'm not exactly certain as to what to do.

It's odd, on the character creator for instance it tells me that some of them do not have 3D sets yet, or that the selectors don't work, and even the textures within the figure box will change colors when click on....

...but would trying to use a different driver?

I'm at a loss, I usually can clear up little problems like this by tweakin a few things.

Im having the same problem, when i choose my character from the beginning it is just some weird colors. but when i log in my character is usually a black blob with a different colored head. and my swords are white... the landscape is just green with no texture at all. But when i roll my mouse over the quick selector button things it makes the graphics a tiny better. but still look horrible
