I found some other who also have an ati graphic card and who are suffering under the same problem.
It happens in every mod and with every setting.
It really ruins the gameplay cause u cant distinguish between a flea and a krog.

unit icons are corrupted (ATI CARDS)

Re: unit icons are corrupted (ATI CARDS)
just FYI: radeon 4850 works as fine as nvidia cards (actually, if you tell LUPS that you have an nvidia 8800, it'll show you some really cool effects - if you haven't seen them before.)
Re: unit icons are corrupted (ATI CARDS)
so how can i tell lups that i have a nvidea card?
Re: unit icons are corrupted (ATI CARDS)
put
in your lups.cfg (usually found in the same place where spring.exe is).
Code: Select all
Vendor = "NVIDIA Corporation"
Renderer= "GeForce 8800 GTS/PCI/SSE2"
Re: unit icons are corrupted (ATI CARDS)
lol i tried to use an old driver version and it worked.
BUT now i have to press shift and ctrl every 10 seconds to make my gui appear

Re: unit icons are corrupted (ATI CARDS)
nvidia trick won't help for gui, unfortunately...
Re: unit icons are corrupted (ATI CARDS)
Go to SpringSettings, turn on Expert Moder, click Render Detail tab and bump down Unit icon distance.
That's one of possible fixes. Unit icons will kick in before you get your error. Clearly you won't be able to see full 3D units then when zoomed out but if you like that fix, tweak up settings so you get icons right before that bug.
I wouldn't bother too much with ATI drivers. Each version broke some part of spring for me. I just use the least broken. For example I can't see that huge sphere in Core Reactors right now. Dunno if anyone reported that, maybe I should. But is use ancient R9600XT.
