I created these 2 missions but when I try to test them, the graphics are all screwy.

Nothing wrong with the graphics running on TBP 3.4 on my system. You might want to add the starfield.pof skybox though, and choose beam free all by default in the mission specs to get those Omega X destroyers firing.

i see no graphic problems in the missions, have you updated your videocard drivers. it helped for me when i couldn't use openGL and kept getting the strange fire effects (white/grey bloks)

Thats what's happening with me!! I have to updated my videocard driver and that fixes the problem?

We don't know. We're just guessing.

[stargate2008]

Well, that is what the problem is. Everytime I try to test my missions, gray and black blocs show up and i have to quit the mission.

How can I upgrade my videocard and what is OpenGL?

[Vash]

well... im no expert. but OpenGL is an alternative to Direct 3D. for details you'll have to ask a programmer. you can update your videocard with drivers from the manufactuar.
i don't know what card you're using, but most today use either the Nvidia or ATI chipsets. so either www.nvidia.com or www.ati.com should have the drivers.

Which driver do u recommend i download from either of those websites?

open your computer case and find out, but if its a dell there special locks and casings and funny wiring so you cant install any new hardware, (if your computer breaks down most probably within a week dell take your money and install a crappy floppy drive from someone elses computer with new casings) .

In windows press start goto run. in the box type in 'DXDIAG' without the quote marks, if you got WHQL let it run then press the display tab at the top of the window then look at the middle for grahpics card info, tell us your card.

[stargate2008]

Does the card matter or can I get the drfivers and use thenmm on any video card?

[stargate2008]

I have a direct X card, does that help any?
