Video Problems?

Miss_Jackie · 10-07-2007, 05:16 PM

Hey. I didn't know where the Tech Support forum is (please move this there, if there is one). I was on my way to the Butcherblock Mountains docks and I noticed this. The water is messed up. And I haven't even messed with my video settings. Any help?

I used to get that. Occasionally water and magic looked like the loading screen from an old ZX Spectrum game (showing my age there eh). It was too irksome for me to play with, all that colourful interference. I used to /camp back to my character and sometimes, rarely, about one in six times, that'd fix it. More commonly completely exiting the game and relogging in was required.

I ain't had it for ages though. And all that's changed with my system was getting a new graphics card. Didn't even change the graphics driver.

It's the first time I've gotten it since I installed my new card (a 512 mb card).

I got that too when in BB, once I came down the cliff and closer to the water it fixed itself and stayed fine since *shrug* not sure why it was doing that either.

We have three systems in the house currently playing the game. Two of which have nVidia and they both have this issue. I wish I knew what causes it but I haven't explored it really.
