So, I had uninstalled SH4 soon after. Back to SH3/GWX3 & loving it all.

Just this past weekend, I had decided to make an adjustment to my system & give SH4 another install and try. Along the way I had heard for a while that ATI cards often suffer from the effects of their own Catalyst Control Center. So, with this potential problem in mind, I went ahead and cleaned out the CCC from my system. Following a registry clean, I re-installed my old SH4, defragged disk, etc. WOW! ~

That could also be the post processing effects option in SH4. For some reason it added this grainy movie like look to the game. Most of the supermods remove it, but here's a standalone mod for it: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...ost+processing
