Strange graphics issue

(koda1789) #1

I’m getting a weird graphics problem. At the title screen everything is running smooth, when i get to the menu screen and in game i’m getting white lines that appear for a split second and then disapear, it’s constant and at random places on the screen (like garbage artifacts). I’ve installed at med and very high detail with the same result.
I’ve tried re-downloading the files and adjusting video settings and nothing seems to work.

My specs:
P4 3.0
6800GT (tried various drivers, used driver cleaner, all with the same result)
1gb PC3200

This only happens when running ET and the ETF mod, all other games run fine.
Any ideas what my problem could be?

ET and the ETF mod…or…ET seperate and ETF seperate. ??? Worded funny, but you understand, right ?

I think i’m following you :slight_smile:
It happens when i try to play ET and also when i try to play ETF.
I’m new to ET and the ETF mod. I downloaded ET 1.0, the 1.02 patch and the ETF 1.0 mod.
if i attempt to play either ET by itself or the ETF mod I get the same graphic artifact issue.

I open the console last night and saw that it’s giving me the following warning when loading…
“Couldn’t find image for shader menu/art/3_cursor2”

Could this be the issue and if so does anyone know how to correct it?

“Couldn’t find image for shader menu/art/3_cursor2”
This is most probably because corrupted pakfiles ( pak0.pk3 , pak1.pk3…) redownload from elsewhere Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory again …
maybe try another site ?

Try and use a bittorrent download of ET. It checksums your download so you can be reasonably sure that your version is the same as the one you are downloading.
