Blank Terrain on 2.1 Beta but NOT on any other versions....

Post by jsmith42690 »

Topic name speaks for itself, did the devs do something with the graphics in the new beta because now I have no terrain features at all.. Please advise?

Try to reduce texture size. See video options in the menu.

I did that long before I started this post, I lowered the textures, changed the resolution, went from fullscreen to windowed, hell I even lowered my computer's resolution to as low as possible but no dice... If it were a graphics card problem it would be so on every version of WZ2100, but all my ealier versions work perfectly, it's just 2.1, which is why my question still stands. Did the devs change anything when it comes to graphics?

How about some more info?  Are you talking about all the textures are white?  Or you don't see anything?  Any pics?
What is your OS, gfx chipset ?

Yes, some stuff has changed, but for the most part, nothing that drastic.
and it ends here.

Just the terrain itself, the objects, units, structures etc are still visible. I am running on windows XP home edition SP2, my processor is an AMD Athlon XP 3200+ 2.2 GHx, 448mb of RAM. My graphics card is a VIA/S3G UniChrome IGP.

Every time I have seen white textures, it was the fault of the video drivers, and or not enough video ram.

All that 2.0 adds is shaders (or was that 2.1?) so it's not that bad really. Plus we only depend on OpenGL 1.1 which is a good thing IMO (as this allows it to run on very old devices).
