Re: SE:V Video Card Issues
I get this a lot:
Display driver: MSI NX 6600GT (nVidea GeForce 6600 GT)
Are there any specific hardware optimizations that will improve video quality? Like will setting any of these improve things: - Antialiasing settings
- Anisotropic filtering
- Force mipmaps
- Conformant texture clamping
- Transparency antialiasing
- Triple buffering

Re: SE:V Video Card Issues
If I use the "safe" mode, the demo is OK. Otherwise, there is a lot of messed up graphics which look greyish with multi-colored diagonal lines streaking across it.
My video card is an ATI Mobility Radeon 7500, 32 MB.

Re: SE:V Video Card Issues
GeForce 6600GT 128MB running 91.31 drivers on W2kSP4rollerup.
Have only "primary display" to choose from. Get messed-up display sometimes running in "auto-mode" when alt-tabbing out of the game and in again.
Otherwise graphics work fine.

That's the exact same results I was getting. Changing the graphic settings to low doesn't help. Eventually I can get a normal screen if I backup to the previous screen and then return to the problematic screen... yet this takes 3 or 4 trys.
Perhaps the demo was released early to be released the same time as Dominions_3. I'm still baffled as I've never seen a publisher release it's two most popular games at the exact same time.
Even tho one game is space and one game is fantasy they're both turn based games and there are gamers such as myself which play both space and fantasy type games.

Re: SE:V Video Card Issues
Shrapnel is not publishing SE5... Strategy First is. Shrapnel is just kind enough to keep hosting these forums for us, since they published SE4.

Re: SE:V Video Card Issues
Is anyone playing the beta or demo with a core 2 duo and high end graphics card? Say, Radeon x1900 or Nvidea 7900 card? If so, how does the game play?
Any people with Vista playing it?
