Graphical Glitches and problems with training miss

Recommended Posts

Hey guys

I like you all in the UK have been waiting for this game to come out...many a sleepless night was lost to OFP. Installed the game yesterday,day before release,get in! and find that it's not the polished article I would expect from a games company in the 21st century.

Game plays fairly smoothly although every so often an anomaly in the graphics comes up and the screen goes into massive grey or white polygons and lines..any ideas?when i move away it stops until i look at that particular area again. Talking mainly about training mission,squad training where you have to use your team to blow up the car. Whenever i get in the APC the graphics go all screwball and lots of different lines andflat grey surfaces show up. I get out and it's ok until i hit obviously another anomaly on the little hill near the waiting point...

Also,probably more of a game problem rather than hardware, can anyone get your team to shoot the car up or does a 'GET IN' icon come up instead of a shoot and destroy target reticle come up...also I don't have any ammo!! and can't find any...

Sorry if some of this is me being a muppet but I really want to play this game to full potential cos it looks great fun! at the moment,getting frustrated! sad_o.gif

You need to post your system specs to give the guys here an idea of what could be causing the graphic problems smile_o.gif

i have a similar problem:

graphics go into a weird black overlay, with cascades of bright coloured pixels defining the characters on-screen in a strange kind of bas-relief effect.

C2D 6600

2x 1GB PC6400

XFX7950GT

Gigabyte P965 DS4 m/b

24" Dell 2407 (playing game at 1680x1050)

WinXP Pro Buld 2600

Dx 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904)

nVidia 92.91 drivers

cheers

after updating to:

Feb 07 DX9

93.71 nVidia drivers

stopped the above problem.

however, after playing perfectly for a while i know get weird LOD glitches where various objects such as buildings, trees and people can be less than 10 yards away and will still display the absolute minimum Level of Detail, as if they were over a kilometre away...

Like you too, i am having exactly the same problem and am also using a radeon 9800...but i have no idea on how to fix this problem, and it is getting very frustrating.. A temporary solution is to alt tab out of the game to ur desktop and go back to the game, this seems to fix the problem for maybe 10 mins

heres a screen where u can actually see something other than grey white and black triangles

Take a look to the temperature of your cpu, seems to be that.

Try to open your computer to see that solve the problem.

If you have chassis fans (none cpu or gpu fans) it's a bad idée playing with your chassis open, the air in and air out flow will not work as designed.
