BF942 Flashing Texture Problems

Max Powerz · May 17, 2004, 10:26 PM

I got a Radeon 8500 (flashed to 9100)... anyway, I had I get flashing textures sometimes in BF1942 and it's mods, not sure if its cause of overclocking or not and I can't really test it cause it only happens sometimes. Or would minimizing the game and then resetting the clocks work? One reason I don't think it's artifacts is cause I used to get little white squares in corners when i had my card clocked higher and those went away when i lowered the clocks, and I heard something about the flashy textures in battlefield on radeons before, oh and they never used to flash even when I had my card clocked higher so it may be a driver change or something tho i did update to xp too.. hmm

EDIT: Aha, I typed a lot

I had the same problem... Does it look something like this?

All I did to get rid of this was make sure that the game is updated to the latest version and install the latest version of the catalyst drivers. At the time of that screenshot I was running a 9000 pro and with my new 9800 pro I do not notice anything like this at all...

It's sorta like that cept they're usually closer unless I'm flying then the i see triangle likes that all over the ground. Oh, and their usually different colors too, like beige or whatever color the ground is.

EDIT: I'll try taking a screenshot of it next time I'm playen.
