Dx9

[-FN-]

Does anyone else's NC look like this when running in DX9? While it's convenient to have all the mobs in the zone mapped out for me, it's damn annoying. I'm also worried this might happen to players in a zone, though I've never encountered it. Imagine lines being drawn between you and your enemy across the zone... :wtf:

[Tratos]

Not for me.

Using Nvidia GeForce 6800.

[Scanner Darkly]

Had something similar in NC1 with a GF2MX.

Not seen anything like this on my current Rad9800 tho

[CMaster]

Its a well known bug (about every 2 weeks to a month, someone posts it on here. One of my clanmates has ALWAYS had it, since he first started NC.) People say that toying with graphics drivers (using older ones, newer ones, etc) seems to fix it, although no speicifc drivers seem to fix it, so I don't think specific drivers are the cause of the problem.

[Jesterthegreat]

nope. my gf fx 6600 ultra pci-e hasn't done this.

in fact none of my gfx cards have.

though i have seen it on other peoples PC's.

[Dirus]

I've never seen that issue on my own PC. I use Dx9 primarily only using Dx7 for certain tasks.

What VideoCard do you have? Motherboard? Drivers?

[CMaster]

Like I say, it seems to happen to random people at random times. I haven't seen any consistency yet among the people who have reported it (on the forums, or on help in game (or indeed teamspeak regarding my clanmate))

[Omnituens]

Lupus, they look exactly like the ones i sent to you with my old card.

which was a GF4MX440, a rehashed GF2.

Yes, I can't remember if you mentioned what motherboard you had at the time.

[Brammers]

Yes I've got the same problem - and I've made my own thread about it. I've also put it in the Patch 140 bugs as well.

My graphics card - Geforce 3 TI200, Motherboard Asus P3BF. Also the problem didn't start until about patch 130 odd.

PC #1:
Video: GeForce3 Ti500
Board: DFI LanParty NFII Ultra B
Drivers: Unknown atm, FW 6x.xx or 7x.xx

PC #2:
Video: GeForce FX5200
Board: Gigabyte GA-7VAX
Drivers: Unknown atm, FW 6x.xx or 7x.xx

PC #3: GeForce3 Ti500
Board: MSI-6330
Drivers: FX 71.90

All three cards, using various ForceWare drivers, right up to the newest WHQL do it. All using DX9c.

It doens't matter a great deal to me anyway as I have to use DX7 or else some memory leak in DX9 will force my PC to reset after about 30 minutes of in-game time. It's just annoying *shrug*

[Skusty]

DX 9.3c, geforce 2, bf2 drivers :p and no errors.


And i got a 7800+ waiting to be installed, my mate will comeover and help tomorrow :D

[krynstone]

I have that exact problem too
I don't mind it though:)..gues it could be called cheating...doesn't happen with players though...only mobs, and vehicles...I'll post screenies tonight.
System Specs:
Latest Direct X
Asus A7N8X deluxe
Athlon XP 1700+

[vanpan]

i got this with w2k without service pack 4

[Transformer]

I had the same problem in beta and when i installed retail. all i did was reinstall Dx9 from microsoft website and it fixed it.

[Comie]

ive had this on my radeon 800xt i got worried cos i thought my GFXcard was over heating

[Transformer]

my 6800 GT used overheat all the time. screen would turn like 5000 different colors and just restart. i finally got a new A/C for my room and havn't had a problem with it since.

[Asurmen Spec Op]

My friend was having an bug like that, kept getting worse and worse, then his card fried

[Terayon]

I only get this problem if my card overheats.

radeon 9600np
windows xp pro sp2

[THE_TICK!!!!]

yep ive noticed the same thing, on my old system when my card would overheat.

[numb]

I have a geforce ti4600. Always had this bug in NC2. I've tried reinstalling directx9 as suggested in this and other threads but it made no difference.

[Torg]

yes, i'm experiencing this as well, hence i'm using dx7. afaik the lines only lead to 4x4 jeeps and lower mobs like wolves, scorps, never to bigger mobs like warbies and never indoors. geforce4200, different drivers to the newest.

[Tesee]

I had some similar problem with my old PC
he had 5600FX but it was only with NC2, not NC1.

It was worse because I had big black or red panes.

I guess it can come from graphic card drivers too.

Now with my current card (ATI x850xt platinum) I don't have any such problem.

[Judge]

Haven't had any problems like that on my Radeon 9600XT, winXP SP1 if it makes any difference. I'm using very old graphics drivers as well (i just cba to upgrade when atm nothing is wrong).

[Robert [GS]]

format c :p

joke ;)

[Omnituens]

Yes, I can't remember if you mentioned what motherboard you had at the time.
i remember what iwas causing it, it was any drives new that 44.xx that caused it, or was it 51.xx? i'll check my logs

ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe mobo

[Koshinn]

Nevetr had it, i'm forced to use dx7 so I can use vehicles... dx9 doesnt work with vehicles for me. :(

Its based on number of legs.

[Xeno LARD]

I used to get this on my GF4MX440. Can't remember what the drivers were, probably 68.8-era omega drivers. Cheap syntax mobo, WinXP Pro default drivers. Err, yeah.

Not at all useful? Well there you go anyway. Go forth and multiply.

[Transformer]

i stopped using omega drivers when they warped my ingame graphics. everthing was all different colors and really pixelated. so bad to leaked nvidia drivers for me.

[Psycho_byte]

ASUS A7N8X (mentioned a couple of times in thread)
Geforce Ti4200

same problem. thought it was bug with the models not fully being there as it is in fact a part of a mob stretched and thus not present. Occurs in rats, plants, scorpians, dragonfly (the huge dragonfly in viarosso1 is irritating, just a gigantic orange line leading to it). cant imagine what it'd be like going into the zoo with the bug. unfortunatly it doesnt really help atall having this bug coz as someone says doesnt track big mobs or players. Personally i like the suprise of turning the corner and finding something.
