Strange 'picket-fence' reflection from conning tower

mrbeast · 09-21-07, 08:09 PM

Does anybody know what causes this?

I only seem to get this with FooFighters skins, it doesn't appear with the stock ones. Does anyone have an explanation or fix?

Hey guys..

Strange problem you have Mr. Beast.. never saw it before.

From the picture it looks like you're using the black tambor.
Does the problem also accur with the grey skin ?
Or another boat class ?

:hmm:

To be honest I dont know if it happens with the grey skins as I usually use early war all black skins. It does seem to occur with all of the black skins I've used I think. Ill have to do some more investigation into the problem. I've noticed it for a while, just now that it started to bug me a bit and I decided to see what could be done to cure it.

What I do know is that it is not connected to any other mods as far as I can tell because I did a clean install a while back and out of curiosity I tried a skin and it showed the same effect.

My gut instict is that its probably yet another crappy side effect from my ATI card to go with the lack of lense flare and blue bow wave and wake textures.

I have this too, thought I read somewhere that it might be a problem with the first version of Seadlers work included in TM 1.6. I maybe wrong though. Downloading the new reflections mod at the moment. going to see if this fixes it.
Edit:Oops really should read all the posts before posting lol
FYI mrbeast I'm using a Nvidia 8600 GTS factory Overclocked. So its not peculiar to ATI cards
Edit: Nope didn't fix it I'll have to check the other skins to see if it happens on any others
