Lil help? odd graphical problem?/Fixed!

[sythalron]

Ok recently PR has worked fine for me, but recently and im not sure why i have some graphical bugs with the game.

Such as the MP5 being black/transparent, and some things on the map such as shipping containers (only some of them) invisible, and some of the AA guns all i see is the shadow.

Here is what my grapple currently looks like. Everything other gun, grenade or tool is fine, it's just the MP5 and hook.



I didn't post this in bugs as i don't think the game is to blame, so i just wonderd if anyone else had similar symptoms/fixes.

I have updated my catalyst ATI drivers to the latest.

Thanks

Here is another example, notice the building on the left too.

try with clearing the shader cache:

Clearing Cache: 2 approaches
1. Delete the contents (files and folders) inside "My Documents\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\cache"
2. Use BF2cleaner: in "Graphics Cache" section click "Cleanse Files"

or
Make sure your system is not overheating i.e. check your temps.

Are those disappearing textures flickering or permanently gone? Is it reproducable?

Im sure it's not overheating as the temps for my card seem normal and other games run fine, including much more graphically demanding games like ARMA2 for example.

The building is just gone, no flickering or anything, just totaly gone.

I tried clearing the cache, no luck.

EDIT: Used BF2cleaner and no luck.

Could it be the latest ATI drivers? as IIRC the game didn't have these bugs when i was on older drivers.

Did you try turning off or reducing AA?

As mentioned, I had a similar (albeit more severe) problem
when I turned AA up to max.

Oh hello Grossi, yeah it did help a bit, the ammo box and grapple hook now display fine on 2x AA.

Buildings are fine now, it's not as severe. Still it's just minor objects like plant pots and some cars that are invisible.

EDIT:I stopped using xfire and the game is fine now, not sure why xfire would cause it.
