Rogue Spear planning...
We may as well get the "live in the now" jokes out of the way first...
:-D Anyway, I just went back and reinstalled/patched Rogue Spear on a Win 2k box. Viddie card is an nVidia FX 5700U with the latest 53.03s. DirectX is up to date. Anyone run into an odd graphics glitch in the "planning" window of the mission setup phase? On my machine the actual floor-plan remains clear while all *other* titles/buttons onscreen initially come up clear, then rapidly "blur" to illegibility within a second or two. Anyone who has seen this will probably know exactly what I'm trying to describe. \crosses fingers This occurs nowhere else in the game, and it otherwise runs without problem. This is the first time I've run into this with this app. Past play-throughs have not done this, and this is the only game on my system misbehaving in this way. It has stubbornly defied all of my meager attempts at trouble-shooting, although, admittedly, I have not been so motivated as to try more invasive (read: "messy") stuff like rolling back video drivers and what-have-you. Some skims through ReadMes and brief scanning in the usual online stops have turned up no clues. I was just wondering if anyone here has encountered this before, or had any insights into what the hell is going on. Thanx in advance... S-M |
