Have the same problem with Dx8.1 and TNT card drv v12.43 OFP v1.30.

Hey BIS how about publishing recommended (or at least, tested) combinations of OS, DX, VidCard and Driver, SoundCard and Driver?

or even better make those effects 3-D, that should solve it :-)

Sounds like an upgrade from 1.29 to 1.30. You'll need to uninstall (Make a backup of your "USERS" directory first) and then reinstall 1.20 then go directly to 1.30. That fixed that same problem for a budy of mine.

Goodluck!

Someone said the DX8.1 is the cause and you have to use DX8 for now.

Alaska, thanks for tip but I've already tried that. Did not work. It does look like Dx8.1 is the source of problem. I'll try to downgrade to 8.0

I think the issue is more complicated than that, it can't be DX 8.1 alone -- I'm using it without any trouble.
