Black lines in graphics



Asked: 2001.01.03
Name: D'Sanai
Question Title: Black lines in graphics
Category: Graphics
Question: When IDing people, I get black lines drawn through the image of their face (as well as my own). The life bar for a creature I'm fighting also acts strangely.

I read on the newsgroups about a 3DFX chipset command that eliminates this, but the command gives me an error. I do not have a 3DFX chipset -- I have an nVidia TNT2.

The graphics have not always looked like this; I don't remember if it was a reinstall or a patch that triggered it.

Please help; the game is playable, but it's a little disconcerting. Thanks!

Answer: Best bet is to reinstall your graphics drivers, as you most likely have an old version.
