what FSO build are you using, and, are you using Direct X, or OpenGL, if it's the latter, use the latest build Here (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,29087.0.html)

it's the shinemaps y'see, so the new build should fix that quite nicely,
heck, even 3.6.5 should do the trick. :nod:

there's a few things, just select openGL from your launcher's video tab, that sorta thing...

on an unrelated note, has anybody noticed that some of my posts seem to get a funky date checking thing going on here?... like my post just after the one with the screenshot in it, now it's after cobra's reply to mine.. :wtf:

You're not kidding, this entire forums is a mess as I see it right now as far as post ordering is concerned.
Also Cobra2, what video card do you have?
