Graphics..or lack or them

[Baldrick]

I shall have a play..TA!

[Chester]

My graphics card is not top notch, but I'm able to play with medium effects, high detail, huge armies, and low everything else. Runs ok too.

You can play huge units on low end cards... It's ram that counts.

[Baldrick]

nope..now reaching the end of my tether

I've dumbed everything down but I still cannot see towns\cities and characters on the strat map. Commodities and ports appear the correct shape but all in black character highlights and paths which are generally green are not seen at all. I've run vanilla with better settings and all appears OK.

I've checked the video board and it appears to be a 64MEG GeForce4 not so crappy as I first assumed (Its my works PC so don't slate me for not knowing I've just never bothered to check before)

Battles are fine





found some up to date drivers from NVidia...all is well

Very good news baldrick. This will be good advice for us to give if we see this problem occurring again.

[Magnificant me]

i don't have a problem with the campain map graphics, it is the battle map that i have the troble with. I went to the battle map for a little fight with some rebs. and i found it to be very diferant from what i experianced in the vanila 1.2, i did not have any grass and all the units were real rough around the edges. any one know any way that this can be fixed?

You can turn up the detail on grass, terrain, buildings, etc, in your options -> video options
