Weird artefacts on Skyway

Postby obi_wan » Mon Jun 19, 2006 7:59 am

Hi,

Since the 2.0 version, i cant play on Skyway, or only if i avoid some places of the map.

You can see the artefacts... and a weird thing : when they appear, wall lights disappear (dunno if they are actual lights or only textures) :S

Using Nexuiz 2.0 with the last patch on a powermac G5 with an ati 9650pro
Settings :
Everything turned Off, except : Decals, Coronas, Deluxe and Offset Mapping.
1024x768 windowed , 32 bits, best quality textures
[NSB] ppwer !

From the docu
gl_lockarrays : enables use of glLockArraysEXT, may cause glitches with some broken drivers
So its a driver problem after all :) But good it can be fixed..

Solved in IRC and will be solved in the patch to 2.0: put this line into autoexec.cfg:

Code: Select all
gl_lockarrays 0


Apparently this also applies to "playable" graphics cards and not just to my Radeon 9200 on OS X. Apple sucks, but what is there that doesn't.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.
