Im using GWX3.0 and none of my watch crew are holding binoculars (just pretending so) and my skies are also devoid of cloud cover...even in storms :hmmm:

I think I might have to re-install everything..

So I don't lose my career and my "Commander" files could I have some guidance on where things are put...I can then dump these down to a USB stick and selectively choose which bit's I wish to restore so I can resume playing....:up:

Pretty sure that's just a limitation by your GFX card. I think that when the system get's taxed too hard, the program starts dropping things to render. Body parts and crew-associated objects seem to be some of the first to go.

Check the Humerous screenshot thread for a lot of them.

I don't think it requires a reinstall.

Those who know better should correct me if I'm wrong though.

I had some other problems earlier on last week and was sent a new "scene.dat" file by another member, which was a stock version patched to 1.4b.

When I have enabled this, my glitches seem to go away, although Im a bit dubious to use it with my career because I'm sure this is one KEY file that was changed by jimbuna and his GWX crew... :hmmm:

IF by crikey it wasn't, then I'll use the file I was sent.

Well that clearly puts it out of my realm of expertise. I'll let one of the pundits speak here then.

Good luck! :yeah:

GFX cards are the main issue with things like no binos or no heads and such.
That is a Stock problem with SH3.
If Stock SH3 runs fine but GWX causes the same issues?
It's still a GFX card issue.
Only changeing the GFX card will help.
Useing a Stock SH3 scene.dat in GWX might help.
But you've lost alot and may suffer other issues.
