Graphical Glitch? What?

<< < (2/2)

Daisy:
I also had issues with my nvidia card (GeForce GO 6600, not supported for Sims2) after I installed Bon Voyage. As well as the huge black triangles my sims would float around with their arms out in quite a sinister way after about ten minutes of game play. I resolved by adding "boolprop useshaders false" to my userstartup cheat. No problems since, although you lose the fish in ponds.

nekonoai:
Kazz, no. the triangles are big and black and elongated and stretch over the whole screen.

hmm. I guess I'll try turning the shaders off next time. I don't really have fish in my college hood. Just FISH HEAD.

I had what I believe was this exact same problem after installing BV & FT. Giant, spastic black triangles that would flash and twitch all over the screen, until either I quit (if able) or the whole computer crashed (more often, the result). This was with no CC or hacks on a computer with an NVidia GeForce 8800 GTS. I installed the newest drivers, which helped a little bit. The game held out longer (and looked even spiffier, lol), but the secret black triangle conspiracy struck again. Next step, Windows Update to grab the Windows XP upgrades for my video card (and the monitor, while I was at it, because whatthehell). Installed those and have played for sim-weeks without any sign of the problem returning... yet. ;D

I know I'm necromancing, (Oh the sexy sexy dead love) but I just got redirected here from another post and read a possible solution to my issues. I guess I'll try upgrading my drivers next time my computer crashes.

Also, the fun of my computer going beyond BLACK for the triangles... For those of you that missed it, here it is...



Normally it's not THIS intense. That gorgeous piece of artwork happened only once. I was starting to think that maybe it was hood decorations like clouds or other flying things, so I got rid of all the decorations in my hood (which weren't much since it was a hood I created and not a maxoid one), but no.

So. updating I guess. wheeee!

oh that sexy sexy skeletor guy is soooo hot! :D
