Title: Graphic Glitches with Windows 7 [SOLVED] Post by: sloppyhousewife on 2011 April 26, 12:33:49 I've googled the problem extensively, but couldn't find a solution (just other people with the same problem, but the only answer they got - if any - was "update your drivers"). With Windows 7, my game looks like this:
(http://img863.imageshack.us/img863/9973/glitch1.jpg) (http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/3793/glitch2x.jpg) OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit / 4GB RAM Graphic board: GeForce GTX 460 / 1024MB GDDR5 I updated the graphics driver several times (latest version: 270.61), installed the most recent DirectX, with the same results. I tried changing the resolution and frame rate, shadows on/off, reflections on/off, details high/low, didn't help, nor did playing with various compatibility modes. Is there any way to fix it?

Title: Re: Graphic Glitches with Windows 7 Post by: sloppyhousewife on 2011 April 26, 19:10:43 Which shouldn't be much of a problem, because I'm trying to run TS2 ;).
According to the game compatibility list in the card's control panel, the TS2 compatibility is supposed to be "excellent", in contrast to games like Oblivion or The Witcher (compatibility is just "good"), both of which run perfectly fine with highest details. ETA: I've been able to fix it myself (for now). Obviously, the graphic board doesn't like the ingame anti-aliasing (or, as it's called, "smooth edges" option). The board's AA was set to "use application settings", and "smooth edges" to the least point possible. Now, AA is controlled by the board, and everything seems to be fine.

How are things back in 2008?
Title: Re: Graphic Glitches with Windows 7 [SOLVED] Post by: rufio on 2011 April 27, 05:25:29 Yes, posting about things related to TS2 in the TS2 forums - who would have expected that?
Things are great in 2008. My games from the late 90's that I still play say hi, too.

Title: Re: Graphic Glitches with Windows 7 [SOLVED] Post by: Crash on 2011 May 12, 00:53:38 I know the header says 'solved', but incidentally I run the exact same setup as you, with the same graphics card and OS, and I have no problems. I'd advice running a clean setup of the drivers, i.e. return to default settings without any of your saved preferences. The nvidia setup will let you run that from the advanced settings when installing the drivers. Maybe running the setup in safe mode is advisable, but you shouldn't have to with win 7, but you never know.
