Not what I was expecting to see..

Unread postby miata54 » Thu Jul 26, 2012 10:27 am

Hi All:

New PC. Win7-64. Fresh install of RW2012. Loaded San-Barstow and this is what I saw. Black sky and missing ground textures. Loaded Portland Terminal. Same. Loaded FSX and all textures displayed properly. Textures on all other programs display correctly. Did a "Verify Files" with Steam. 8 files missing. Fired up RW again and loaded the sames routes. Same missing textures. Any ideas what is happening here?

Thanks

Chris

You have to set your video board to APPLICATION CONTROLLED for Anti Aliasing. I assume you have an ATI video board?

You are right Bob. ATI. Planning on getting an Nvidia! Thanks for the tip. I'll change it and hopefully the problem will be corrected.

Thanks

I beleive it will work for you as when I got my 6 core with an ATI 5750 HD in it I figured I would turn everything up all the way and see how poerful it was. NOT! Got black skies and white ground. Make AA app controlled and all is well.

It's because the game uses delayed rendering, which doesn't work with *anyone*'s built in AA, as far as I'm aware. Just turn the card FSAA off & use the game, it will work then.
