Windowed Mode Wonkyness - Fruityla - 02-18-2009 02:23 AM

If I play in Windowed Mode and go to a map with ANYTHING moving on it (NBe it a monster or another player), I'll suddenly start getting a bunch of flashing triangles on my screen. Everything except the map itself and my character will be messed up and I'll be forced to Alt+F4 out of heRO.

>_> Pretty sure that's not supposed to happen.

Could you screenshot it? I run it windowed, and I might be able to help.

It seems the issue occurs only in Yuno Sweat I haven't had it happen anywhere else.

Hmmm, all I see in those screenshots is a large square portion where it looks like someone cut it out of the picture. O_o

Not really seeing anything about those triangles you were talking about in your first post. I assume this has something to do with your computer (could also be your client), so best thing to do is make sure everything is up to date. Hard to help you with this since I've never encountered it before. >.<

Your sdata is probably corrupted and therefore the textures inside it. It's a really rare thing to happen though...


RE: Windowed Mode Wonkyness - Fruityla - 02-18-2009 09:00 PM

This doesn't happen in full screen though. Just windowed O_o and only in Yuno and Geffenia (Or Geffen when the Geffenia warp is opened, not sure since I was instantly warped since my wizard spawned on the warp)

Based on that, I'm guessing it's got something to do with the on/off beams of light in those two areas.

And regardless of randomly appearing shapes, it's the same sort of screwyness =p

And here I was thinking that only I used the word "wonky".

That seems strange though... I would have expected there to be some sort of messed up colored triangles there (as common with corrupted textures), but it just looks like it just had a square cut out of it...

What kind of graphics card and drivers do you have?


RE: Windowed Mode Wonkyness - Fruityla - 02-19-2009 12:31 AM

Triangle (only saw one on the top of my screen) occurred on wizzie earlier. It was see through (but made the area behind it darker) and didn't show up in the screens I took o_O;

As for the graphics card: Mobile Intel® 915GM/GMS, 910GML Express Chipset


RE: Windowed Mode Wonkyness - GM-Pandora - 02-19-2009 07:29 AM

Weird stuff, show us what you got in setup.exe with a screenshot if you can?

Also, try updating the graphic driver maybe.
