NO.

Okay, thanks for correction.

Cole:

What video card do you have, and are either of your video card or processor overclocked?  Is the fan on your video card working correctly?

Those sorts of artifacts and texture corruption issues are frequently the symptoms of hardware heat problems.

Thanks again everyone...

Radeon 9550. Last time I checked, the fan was working fine.

As I've said, the inverted colors are a bug, and they seem to be present in other Radeons, as other people have reported the same bug.

EDIT: The fan seems to be clogged, Thanks for the heads up.

[colecampbell666]

Got the fan to work, and the weird lines have disappeared. Thanks.

[GTSVA]

Hey the link someone gave me worked. I updated my card and now my MediaVPS works! YES!

[Jeff Vader]

You're welcome.

[GTSVA]

Thanks LOBO...Hey Lobo, do you play Fs2 anymore like Multiplayer, and If you do, whats your ingame name?

[Jeff Vader]

No. I'm not really into multiplayer.

[GTSVA]

ummmmmm ok...how do you put the thing under all your posts? Like that sorrow poem...

No problem.  As for colour inversion, are you getting it ingame on the models, or in the 2D mode?

And have you updated to the Catalyst 8.3s?  They resolved a whole whack of issues on my system.  I see the 8.4s are now out too.

When you update Catalyst drivers, do NOT install Catalyst Control Center.  Just install the driver itself.  Then install ATI Tray Tools and use it to configure the card.

That's your signature.  You edit by clicking "Profile" at the top of the page and then "Forum Profile Related Settings" on the left.

Do us a favour though and don't go overboard, as massively large sigs are incredibly annoying. General rule of thumb: If you sig is longer than your average post, it's too long.

Oh believe me, I learned about CCC quickly. I have the latest 8.3 drivers. And as I said, I get the inverted colors when paused and in completed screenshots. Backslash has a 1950 and gets the same problem.

[Backslash]

Yeah I'm on 8.4 and the inverted still happens, but only when paused and screenshots.  Everything else works great.

And thanks for the tip about ATI Tray Tools versus CCC, that thing just started bugging me today (and I only installed it yesterday).  Somehow I avoided installing it all the previous times.

As for the discussion about strange model corruption and different graphics drivers and whatnot... do note that taylor DID recently (beginning of April) fix a problem that seemed to only affect ATI users, that caused certain models to show Shards of Death.  I saw this on the 3.6.10 beta mediavp asteroids and Lokis in particular.  Now it is working, huzzah.

Aye, these signatures are mighty fun. It makes it easy to give advise to new people, like "Use Turey's Installer (link in my sig)" or "Read Karajorma's FreeSpace FAQ (link in my sig)". And it's not a poem. I express my hatred towards the world by quoting bits 'n pieces from cheerfully refreshing Dir en grey songs.

On topic: Am I missing something or does the Myrmidon look the same as it always has? I can't see any difference compared to 3.6.8's. Or, to some extent, even retail.

[Vip]

I don't suppose a HTL Myrmidon was in any official MVPs (or actually existed in the first place). So yeah, that's retail what you're looking at, just as the Ulysses for instance. An easy way to check it is to go into the techroom under F3, and in Render Options turn on the wireframe. HTL models have insanely complex wireframes, while the retail ones are very simple.

Still, with the normal maps on, even the good ol' Ulysses doesn't look that bad

[Mobius]

I do remember an advanced Myrmidon. Like the new Ursa textures, they didn't et in the Media VPs.

I believe you were saying something, Cobra.
