CWC works, resistance doesn't

I installed cold war crises, reboot, install upgrades, reboot after each one. (1.3 and 1.46). Everything is ok.

Then I install resistance and the main screen is so bad, I can't even see the menus. A maze of different colors.

I uninstalled everything and started over and the same thing happens.

Anyone have any ideas, I'd greatly appreciate it.

After you have installed Resistance on your 1.46 installation (making it to version 1.75) , have you applied the latest patch 1.96 ?

Lots of bugs and more have been corrected between 1.75 and 1.96 , so if you have not patched yet, you should.

Download the patch that upgrade from 1.75 directly to 1.96 there or there (+/- 13mo)

Sanctuary,

I'm sorry I didn't make myself clear. I did install 1.96 update.

Then when this happened, I uninstalled and did it all again and problem persists.

Thanks,

Ken

Update all your drivers, patch to 1.96, use -nomap parameter (see pic below), make sure AGP aperture size in BIOS is 128mb or less

Back up and then delete the following two files:

1. OFP\flashpoint.cfg

2. OFP\Users\<span style='color:red'>yourPlayerName</span>\Userinfo.cfg

Then run the OFPR Preferences Program and click on the AUTODETECT button and then on the START button.

What do you get? If you still have the problem, my guess is it's your graphics adapter. Is that Intel thing onboard? Do you have the latest drivers for it installed?

Avonlady, Placebo, thank you soooo much. The -nomap thing worked.
