Garbled green & red screen when using 1.4b patch ?

[Paul Riley]

I knew there was one more thing before I can close this post.
When updating the game to 1.4 it actually says updating to 1.3,yet when I launch the game it says the game is 1.4.

Thanks

Could be anything at this rate mate,I am thinking its SP2 personally,it seems to be conflicting with my X800 Pro card.After I format my drive later in the week I will let you know what happens.

Cheers.

If you're going to format anyway, you might want to try downloading and installing CCCP - the Combined Community Codec Pack. If it helps, then brilliant. If it doesn't, then nothing's lost I guess.

Sorry,I forgot to answer your main question.I have recently updated my drivers to Catalyst 10.2,and I believe my old drivers when I last played SH3 were 9.8 or 9.9 ,cant remember.May be an idea to get hold of them drivers again and roll back.
And yes,there is only the small issue with the initial intro movie as soon as I launch the game,not the actual WWII footage in GWX3 with the red background.

Thanks again.

That is a typo that was never corrected...you do indeed have 1.4.

Regarding the graphics issue....I run GWX3.0 with SP3 on XP Pro without any problems so if this is a relatively new fault it is quite probable your new drivers are the cause, try rolling back to the previous version that wasn't giving you any strife (if you can remember what version they were).

Good Luck.
