ANOTHER graphics glitch reinstall???

gazpode_l · 03-12-11, 04:17 PM

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

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....

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...

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!

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.
