Not sure about this......bug or not? (NOT, FIXED)

[uniquemind]

Take alook at this screenshot of the sky, I am not sure if this should be posted in the bug thread or not, as I guess I am hoping that it is down to a graphical setting for my card, in which case I'd appreciate the help.........I mean it looks hideous



Apologies if this has been mentioned before, but I have'nt found anything in my search

UM

Try changing your graphics settings a bit higher/lower and see if there is any fix, if not, probably a image glitch...
Sue da UBI, maybe you get a few hundred dollars and who knows, a juiced 8800GTX or X1950XT?:hmm:
Kidding, just try playing with the game menu options or try your video card control panel and increase settings if possible....
Help & support is on the way...

Yeah I'd love a spanking new card, but my system needs a whole new system if you know what I mean, this current setup is as far as it can go so in a year and a halfs time I can upgrade, but I'd love UBI to grant me my wish, but no hope there nice thought though

I'm just not sure what settings to alter in my control panel, I have the ATI Tools, instead of the CCC as I heard that it uses up too many resources, so I have the above mentioned ATI Tools instead, but alot of it is greek to me, I know a few but not many, and also what they do, I'd experiment gladly if I knew it would'nt hurt my system

Thanks though, I'd rather like to believe that it is a glitch, and that UBI can sort this, everything crossed right now

OK, try this:
1. Update the latest drivers...
2. Go to ATI control panel, and under 3D [advanced view] set the slider to quality.
Apply & OK.
If the problem persists, well, that is a highly possibility of 2 things:
1. Game settings too low
2. Game issue [or some weird bad-ass protection]...

Hi GakunGak,

I will try that thank you, however, I tried this morning and played the artillery training and the sky was certainly better than that screenshot, and it also was fine in my career, I find that most odd, last night that and this morning ok.

Only one thing I can think of that maybe caused that although why it should is beyond me, but I have been minimizing the game so that I could come here to post if anything was amiss/bug etc...... in the game and after having posted or whatever I went back into the game and thats when I looked up to take a plane out and saw that weird sky.

Maybe I am in the wrong ball park here, but I'll have a go at your suggestion and post back either way if its better or not

Many thanks

UM

Please excuse double post but here is a better sky, I only altered 1 option within my control panel for the graphics card:

Enable Geometry instancing = checked (not sure if that was responsible but everything else stayed the same before I posted this thread

These are the Catalyst 7.3's don't think they have been out for long, was using much older drivers before, but that was a case of having too as other problems arose using the 7.2's





Thanks for your help GakunGak

As for uniquemind, golden rule: Dont panic as anything can be fixed...
And yes, format should be your last hope if nothing else helps...

Hi there,

Well all is well after having done what you said GakunGak.

Thank you very much for helping me as I was feeling that I was digging myself into a huge hole

The sky is now looking how it should do and is no longer hideous

Catalyst 7.3 drivers are in and all the Omega stuff is out for good, I'm not going there again ever! they might be good for some but not for me

Now all that is needed is for me to find some enemies to have ago at, and of course for other bugs to be ironed out, but even though I moan and have other issues I can be patient, so it will take as long as it takes, I just pray that my other flashing problem does not get left out, only two of us notice this when on the bridge and it is a nuisance for sure.

Hang on I'm becoming obsessed with this now, not good

Thanks again mate, you truly saved the day!!!
