AA causeing SH3 to load only a black screen...

Task Force · 08-28-09, 02:26 PM

Yes, as the title says, when I apply aa, sh3 starts but I only get a blank black screen, and music...

But when I set SH3 to allow the program to select settings it starts, but the edges of the models look like S***.

anyone have any solutions?

(I know this has been asked before...)

I have the same problem. Do you have a Nvidia card? When i had my ATI card I had no problems with setting the AA for SH3 but with two separate computers both with Nvidia cards, changing the AA just leads to a black screen. I tried the latest drivers and no luck.

I think Nvidia is a better card overall, but no luck with SH3.

Either the drivers or a res fix mod if your using one.

Task Force · 08-29-09, 03:48 PM

Newest doesn't always mean best.

Task Force · 08-29-09, 04:22 PM
