Black bug, outside only

JG52Krupi · 11-28-10, 08:24 AM

Hey Guys,

I decided to try SH5 again and got some mods installed them launched the game put all the settings on max loaded a historical mission and... black screen when i go to the tower....

Is there anyway around this bug, ive removed all the mods, changed the graphic settings but with no success...

Please could you help me with this problem.

P.S. oddly when i hit the escape button the outside view fades into vision lol

what kind of video card? Have you updated to latest drivers?

JG52Krupi · 12-03-10, 10:29 AM

I have the 5970 and yes the drivers are up to date

Posting what mods your using and in what order will be helpful. Black skies usually mean a conflict somewhere.

JG52Krupi · 12-03-10, 11:12 AM

I have removed all mods using JSGME, so there should be no conflict

I will try to download it again (steam)

Needed to bump this as a friend tried to play multiplayer with me and had this issue.
A reinstall didnt help and the issue was apparent in historical missions as well.

He has ATI cards and ran the game fine when originally purchased.

Left the game on the shelf for a month, returned to it to encounter this bug.

ATI driver issue is probable cause, but which driver and is an update or roll back required ?

ATI guys that are not encountering this problem let me know which driver u have installed please.

I also had this problem on my 5970 and turning on catylist ai solved my problem. I also turned down mip map to second highest setting.

I am the Friend Divitor was asking for.
MY system is useing Crossfire MSI hd5770 lighting cards newest 10.11 drivers. I play BFBC2 & Black Ops mostly I am a Old SH3 fan ansd installed SH5 about 2 months ago looked around a little played for a few hour and when back to Black ops Yesturday I tried agian and The interface controls are there But when i look outside all is Black when i switch view I get a small flash of color on the top 2 inches of the monitor for an instant. I sure feel like a driver issuse but i need the 10.11 for BFBC2. I will watch this for updates. Oh i think at the time for install i was 9.7 and all was good then.
If anybody need more info from me ask i will reply.
Oh the is the clean install of patched 1.2 also. No mods new drive & OS is very fresh.

Do you mean *turn Catalyst AI off*? This helped for me now when I tested.

Maybe I should blame ATI instead of Ubisoft this time

Oilsmoke got the bug sorted tweaking his ATI settings.

I'll ask him to post what he did.
It was an ATI graphics issue causing the outside scenery not to draw.

^^

In my case I just turn ATI "A.I." off and the problem went away.

Hi bigduke,
Had this problem myself with my 5970 and ATI drivers,the only solution I've found is reverting to the 10.10 drivers and disabling catalyst AI in the catalyst control panel. Hope it helps mate.
