Grayed out screen?

Post by Redmarkus5 »

Game was running fine and I didn't install anything new or change any settings but now the screen looks like this... Any ideas?

Well never seen that before. If you didn't change anything i.e. graphic drivers, card settings i'd start with turning everything down or off graphically in APOS and work my way through the settings and hope the map shows up and increase from there. First I'd reboot. Hope something shows up for you, we all know a re-install would suck.post if you find out what did it.....Good luck

Back on track. I had adjusted my AA settings following some advice on the Scourge of War forum. Resetting it and rebooting did the trick!

Hi.

I'm afraid I can't recall exactly what I did and this week is pretty hectic, so I won't have time to search. It was anti-aliasing settings issue and someone had posted something about that somewhere. I know that I wrote 'Scourge or War Forum' below. It could have been there or I might have meant 'Graviteam site' as I play both games regularly. You'll need to search the threads but I think I found it fairly easily...

Simply disable forced AA in video driver settings.

Having the anti-aliasing as "Application-controlled" in Nvidia Control Panel does not fix the problem.


Edit:

Apparently this forum does not allow the posting of links, even for the image embedding function, for 7 days. God knows why.

Try setting everything to defaults there. Maybe you have something else related to AA enabled.
