No, just ROF video corruption. I get stuff like this all the time..I love the game but wish they would fix this.

Yes I do have a video card,,a 275 in fact
Yes I do have some ram,,2 gig in fact
Yes I do have the latest factory authorized drivers from Nvidia
Yes I have tried turning everything down to get the video memory below 25
Yes I tried turning the sound properties to low
Yes I like the purty colors but rather see the game

I have also searched and read some of the threads on this where others have this problem and even with 6 gigs of ram they still see corruption.

If I have missed something please let me know..oh,,and maybe this is just a flash back,,maybe.

Is your card overheating?

Whoa, looks like something's overheated or the card's going out!

Is it just RoF, or do other really graphic intense modern proggies do the same thing (ARMAII, Crysis, Call of Duty 4, etc.)?

Either that or there's a texture load problem that might be resolved by an unistall/reinstall.

Purple Haze, all in my brain!!! Smile2

No its not an acid/mushroom induced flashback I have had some weirdness like that myself with an ATI 4870x2 (all other games and temps were fine). This only occurs on my rig with Catalyst AI enabled, can't comment if it happens with the 4.10 drivers and latest ROF patch though as my computer is not back from an RMA yet for another reason.

I have heard others say it is fine with Catalyst AI enabled though, it is strange. I know this doesn't really help you but you are not alone.....I was getting the square landscape blocks too, (usually black) but have never seen a "Silver Surfer" aircraft yet.

Hi Warbirds.
I get this every now and then...all I do is pause the game...Alt Esc out of game...then return to game and all should be fine. I sometimes have to do this twice but very rarely.
Hope this helps. Smile2

Warbirds, I had the same problem untill I installed the "Enhanced SLI" driver from www.evga.com
They suggest installing this even if your are not running SLI with the card you have.
You might want to give it a try.

I'm getting this on XP32 since this weekend. I was thinking it was one of my 8800s failing.

100 bucks it is the game not his hardware? Any bets?

yes sim is great, great FM, bla bla...(although currently, planes are able to fly without wings for a longer period of time and leading NeoQB guy, Petrovich, said he tried that with paper plane and it works..so he thinks it must for in sim! What a laugh...

but this sim has serious issues...regarding graphics and performance...and with server conns...


@Warbirds - immediately, buy a nuclear PC so you can play ROF without issues....be sure ITS YOUR HARDWARE MAN! hahahaha
