Title: black planes?
Post by: silverwolf on December 16, 2007, 06:41:44 pm

I'm running FSO on a radeon 1600 pro with vista. I use the latest official release build and I seem to be having some type of graphical glitch mainly with the leviathan/fenris cruisers and the faustus science vessel. in game,and sometimes in tech room they have a black seemingly 1 dimensional space jut out of them which impedes the game since well you can't see. Think i almost rammed a cruiser that way :S I should of captured screenshots but it slipped my mind at the time.

update: using the jpeg,tga command line fixes that but inturn screws up the model *headtilts at the faustus having no rear end*

Do you have latest graphics drivers?

Are you running in OpenGL or DirectX?

What resolution and color depth do you have? Also check that color depth of the desktop is at 32 bits.

I have the latest drivers and I'm using open GL. At this point even with or without jpg/tga textures the faustus is missing its back end even though the original problem is solved. I'm also running the resolution at 1280x1024 with 32 bit color.
