Hi all,
Have had ongoing problem, only seems to occur when surfacing from depth, a couple of shots:

note the holes in head etc.

Any suggestions as to what the cause may be?

Many thanks again.

What mods do you use and what's your system specs?

Did this just start?

That looks like some sort of bad skin disease.

Hi, Thanks for responding,
I'm running GWX 2.1 + Merged Campaign with:

OLCE2 1.6 pt 1 of 2
GWX 2.1 Minor fix's 26th April
Thomsens Sound pack V3
60% Light Night
FubarsVII58 mk2 skin

System wise;

2Gb memory
Geforce 7300gt 512mb graphics,

This oddity has only occured since i installed GWX 2.1 on it's release, which, by the way, was the same time I installed the graphics card. I feel it is down to graphics settings somewhere and is not as bad as it use to be since I installed old version nvidia driver (91.47). I have tried tweaking the nvidia control panel settings but always results in the same way. I did have nhancer but it seemed to conflict so I ditched that and have better results with the nvidia control panel.
I know it's a long shot but I just wondered if anyone had suffered anything similar. As previously mentioned, it only happens when surfaced from depth. My FPS is acceptable and I always disable antivirus.

Thanks again,

Herr Trigger.

I am close to deciding on a new video card so this thread caught my eye.

A search resulted in some posts about that Nvidia enhancer.
I know that ATI has a program that helps completely uninstall all driver files, and lets you start over. Just wondering if Nvidia does the same.

edit to add
Just in case you go for reinstalling drivers;

Driver Cleaner Professional

I didn't have a problem uninstalling drivers, but I think it may be down finding the right one! I installed the driver supplied on the cd in the box, terrible results, uninstalled and then d/l beta version 174.74 with real psychedelic results! uninstalled then tried older version 91.47 ( I was using this one with my old card - geforce 6200 256mb), the best so far.
This is annoying as I didn't have a problem with the old card apart from a fps issue, This new one was real expensive as well and i only bought it for SH3. S^*t happens!

Uninstalling graphics driver isn't good enough,it always leave some behind,as Danurve said,you need Driver Cleaner Pro to clean out the rest of the driver.
Once you uninstall driver,go into safe mode and run Driver Cleaner,then reboot and install new driver...Good luck

Roger that. One of the stock SH3 crew heads has two little triangles missing making it look like a bad haircut.

There was a fix released for this small issue but given that it turned the entire crewman head rather green in color... we didn't impliment it in GWX. We just left it as it was.
