Kala Report post Posted March 28, 2005 (edited) My graphics had spasms. While this annoyed me at first, I began to take screen shots.

Kala Report post Posted March 28, 2005 (edited) Well when I go into console and click out of the window, it's fixed... And my graphics are normal now. I guess it was just last night. By the way, http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/KalaOfEL/wth9.bmp Can anybody guess where that is? Edited March 28, 2005 by Kala Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MoonShadow Report post Posted March 28, 2005 By the way, http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/KalaOfEL/wth9.bmp Can anybody guess where that is? White Stone, Lakeside City docks. Right next to Trik. Btw your screenshots are soooo small. You need to make them bigger. o.O Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Entropy Report post Posted March 29, 2005 That's unlikely to be the graphics card. Post it under bug reports. Actually, no, it is the graphic card, not the game. I guess Kala uses an S3 video card, right? Or it can also be a SyS card. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess Kala uses an S3 video card, right? Or it can also be a SyS card. I have no clue what that means! :lol: It's fixed now. I just restarted my computer, and now the graphics are normal. It was entertaining, but I'm glad I don't have to guess where things are on my map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess Kala uses an S3 video card, right? Or it can also be a SyS card. And how would the graphics card know where to find a completely valid texture that isn't even used in the current scene? It doesn't just look through the computer and go "ooh, that one looks pretty, me wants", something has to tell it where to find the texture, and that something is the game. /me thinks you always blame the graphics card. Didn't you blame my graphics card when EL used a random texture instead of showing "there is no map for this place", and then freed the texture, making everything white? Until I found the bug...

Entropy Report post Posted March 31, 2005 And how would the graphics card know where to find a completely valid texture that isn't even used in the current scene? No idea, why don't you ask those who wrote those drivers? It doesn't just look through the computer and go "ooh, that one looks pretty, me wants", something has to tell it where to find the texture, and that something is the game. Of course. Unfortunately, the OpenGL implementation for that particular card is flawed, so a wrong texture is used. /me thinks you always blame the graphics card. It so happens that I personally whitnessed this bug on an S3 card (on a laptop), and I know that it is a bug with that card. On the other hand, the game is open source, if you can pinpoint a flaw that causes that, I'll stand corrected. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tropicano Report post Posted April 1, 2005 (edited) i saw a similar glitch once Screenshot Mother nature got pissed off at wraith? Thats really scary:D and about the S3 cards.. I once played EL on a crappy-as-hell computer (like 400 mhz and a s3 card) just for the sake of chatting, and even though the fps was around 1~/sec i could see that all the stupid textures were bugged.. and i played the game over LAN on a computer where it worked perectly.. so id also put my money on the Cards. :| Edited April 1, 2005 by Tropicano Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
