Nihilus5078 Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 Okay any object thats shiny will appear dark, including Sith Troopers, Lightsaber hilts, melee weapons, and anything else thats shiny. Know whats going on. I'm running on a Toshiba Vista. And this is KotOR I.
Deadly_Nightshade Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 Sounds like a driver bug, have you tried another version? "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot
HoonDing Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 Update graphic drivers. Stuff like this happened to me with Mirror's Edge once. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Nihilus5078 Posted August 17, 2009 Author Posted August 17, 2009 Well, I have some windows updates installed right now. Just have to try that and see if it works, after that, probably should hunt around for the driver on my old Laptop.
Nihilus5078 Posted August 17, 2009 Author Posted August 17, 2009 I'll probabaly need to look for a different graphics card, I dont mind the Sith Trooper reskin, they look like their stupider that way and thats the way I like them, it's just the armor, lightsaber hilts, and melee weapons that is annoying.
Nihilus5078 Posted August 18, 2009 Author Posted August 18, 2009 (edited) Sounds like a driver bug, have you tried another version? I have v1.03. It worked fine on my old laptop, dont see why this is happening. I updated the game and it installed a bunch of patches which is good, but now I'm getting some message saying "Conflict with Disc Emulator Software detected. See www.securom.com/emulation for more details", and it never showed that before I updated. which I did and it seems to say: SecuROM Edited August 18, 2009 by Nihilus5078
Guest Slinky Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 Sounds like a driver bug, have you tried another version? I have v1.03. Deadly_Nightshade meant graphics driver. And yes, it does sound like graphics driver bug. You should update those, or try older ones if newest driver won't help. What graphics card your Toshiba has? It might be too old to handle shaders (the shiny things). SecuROM whines like that if you are using some burning software like Alcohol or CD/DVD emulation software like Daemon Tools.
Nihilus5078 Posted August 19, 2009 Author Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) I'm not using Daemon Tools. I managed to fix the Emulation problem, but the objects that are shiny are still dark. Edited August 19, 2009 by Nihilus5078
Guest Slinky Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) but the objects that are shiny are still dark. The source of that problem has been pointed to you three times. Have you tried to do anything with the graphics driver? Edited August 19, 2009 by Slinky
Nihilus5078 Posted August 19, 2009 Author Posted August 19, 2009 No. But I should check the graphics driver to see if it's a NVidia though. NVidias tend to work best from what I see.
