Dentarg Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Running game with an ATI radeon HD 3870. i've updated drivers, reinstalled directx and reinstalled game to the base install, and I still get gfx corruption from frame buffer. can't seem to figure out why... anybody that has had experience with this would be helpful, a friend of mine mentioned that it may be that this card uses PCI-e and this is an older game, but really I have no idea where to begin.

I use a hd 2600, and i get the same thing, as a matter of fact I got a post going about it. I think that it has nothing to do with pci-e, because with my x-1300 this game ran fine with frame buffer effects on. I do believe it is the HD series. I have a similar problem when playing games on my psx emulator (shh I never said I had one of those.) Anyways. You actually, because of having a much better card than I, have an extra option in your catalyst control center, that I dont. In your CCC, go into graphics settings > the click on the 3D tab, go to more settings, you should have an option for geometry scaling, or something or other. Uncheck it to see if it makes a difference. If it doesnt, don't worry, because that isnt what effects the blur effect (frame buffer stuff) anyways. But it could stop geometrical graphic errors from happening after videos. I am awaiting reply on the other post, so perhaps we will find out soon enough. Other things that might help... lowering AA to 0, lowers A filter to 0, turning off v sync. And if you want to just continue playing, and you can handle the rather unspectacular effects, just turn frame buffer off. Although with that graphics card, that must be hard to hear.

I WANT COOL FORCE EFFECTS!!!!!1!! oh.., and interesting thing, is if I change the games AA and other advanced stuff, the texure quality, it alters the corruption a certain degree

Cause mine plays bioshock just fine.
Bass-GameMaster Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 They arent meant for "some" older games. Kotor 2 is one of those. ""Savior, conqueror, hero, villain. You are all things, Revan
