Zozimus Posted October 2, 2002 Share Posted October 2, 2002 Just got CMBB last week and, as expected, its magnificent! Only one minor fly in the ointment: The German, Hungarian, Finnish, and Bulgarian uniforms and objective flags don't seem to load properly. All I see is a kind of multicoloured fuzz. Unusually, all the Soviet units I've tested so far display perfectly, as well as the Axis tankers and officers. Only regular troops and objective flags seem affected, as I said. I've tried deleting the CMBB preferences file and running at a lower screen resolution, increasing the memory to CMBB, doing a clean install, and combinations of the above. I'm running the game on a G4 Silver, 733 MHz, 256MB RAM, 32MB GeForce 2 (MX I think), OS 9.2. I also tried looking through the BMP files to see if they are corrupted but there are so many I haven't found the uniforms section yet. If any modder out there has the number code for Axis uniforms I'd be most grateful. Any other suggestions also welcome. Thanks. :confused: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted October 2, 2002 Share Posted October 2, 2002 Perhaps you need to update your video drivers ? Some people have had problems with the latest v. 3.0 Update drivers from Apple. The URL is too long for UBB, so you'll need to copy & paste the following URL and add an 'http:' to the front (AppleCare Article ID: 120110): //docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120110&SaveKCWindowURL=http%3A%2F%2Fkbase.info.apple.com%2Fcgi-bin%2FWebObjects%2Fkbase.woa%2Fwa%2FSaveKCToHomePage&searchMode=Expert&kbho st=kbase.info.apple.com&showButton=false&randomValue=100&showSurvey=false&sessionID=anonymous|154873586 It's suggested that you have OS 9.2.2, so you may want to consider updating to that too. Of course there can be other implications to doing an OS upgrade so you may want to think carefully about this. There's also a specific GeForce2 MX update that updates the drivers and firmware, but you may already be using newer (or the same) drivers and your video card may already be updated to this firmware level (AppleCare Article ID: 75115): //docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75115&SaveKCWindowURL=http%3A%2F%2Fkbase.info.apple.com%2Fcgi-bin%2FWebObjects%2Fkbase.woa%2Fwa%2FSaveKCToHomePage&searchMode=Expert&kbhos t=kbase.info.apple.com&showButton=false&randomValue=100&showSurvey=false&sessionID=anonymous|154873586 Again, I don't know if any of these upgrades will help with your particular problem. There are random Mac users out there who have graphics problems with CMBB, even though they have the latest drivers, etc. And not everyone has these problems so it's a near wash trying to figure out what the exact culprit is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmatt Posted October 2, 2002 Share Posted October 2, 2002 There is a bug (that is fixed in the forthcoming v1.01 patch) that has some crews uniforms all messed up occasionally. You could be experiencing that issue. Madmatt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zozimus Posted October 2, 2002 Author Share Posted October 2, 2002 Thanks for the quick response! I think I'll wait for the 1.01 patch first, and if that fails then I'll worry about upgrading my drivers etc. Again, thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
