(V.0632) Graphics Glitch

[DakHam]

I'm using a 256MB DDR ATI Radeon 9800 XT (Forgive me, as I'm 13 and have only the smallest of knowledge of what it does, besides being a graphics card.) and I've noticed that when I play Mount&Blade, the graphics get real glitchy, for instance: In Zendar, the Armor merchant's stall has weird-colored pixels in the place of where the color white should be. Also, the river flowing past Zendar on the world map can get a little messed up. Horses, in both arena and battles, almost become decorated with colorful-pixels, almost like beads. I would take pictures, but I yet don't know how to. If anyone could give me some advice on taking them, and posting them here, that would be great.

If you open the configuratin (or open rgl_config.txt, same thing) you can alter some of the settings.

Lower the texture_detail from 100 to like 50, set use_pixel_shaders to 0, see if that helps. Might want to try updating your video drivers if all else fails.

Why am I starting to feel, that the most active users on this forum go all *****y and wise-ass when they get a higher and higher number on the posted messages -counter?

The problem wasn't even about the screenshots. Pffh.

About the problem itself, try alt+tab. The bug should be gone after you switch back to Mount & Blade. Works for me.

Ah, I've figured out the problem. When I was running Mount and Blade, I had AIM and Counter-Strike running as well (bad idea). My brother suggested closing them, and now I don't have anymore problems. Thanks, though.

Heh well it's a bad idea to run multiple game's at any time really , Especially game's like CS as they take alot of process power.

I Doubt AIM would effect it at all though , Far as i know it's like Msn Messenger , i run that with no bad effect's.
Only really game's you need to worry about.
