totally corrupted graphics [by /advshading 0 + alt b]

Post by knorke »

This suddendly started about 15 minutes into playing.
very dark, can not see chat (but can see the chat | cursor thing when typing), scrambled textures, terrain sometimes flickered a bit.

To me look like dying gfx card/too high temperatures.
But i checked and it was at 55┬░C, which is normal.
amd 2800+, nvidia geforce 6800, win xp 32 bit

Notice titlebar of window is normal as is taskbar. It was only Spring being corrupted.

dont have infolog.txt :roll: as it got overwritten when i start spring.exe to see if error is still there (it was not, everything fine)

so its a one-time error so for without much information, sorry. figured id post anyway maybe someone knows something or just for the loly images.

if somebody wants to try to reproduce it:
type into chat:
/advshading 0
press alt + b

typing /advshading 1 (i must type it blind lol) will make it normal.
Also Spring will not stay like, after restarting spring it is all normal again so I think its safe to try it.

Advshading does shinyness and glow. Self shadowing is a part of shadows, so it's separate. I also get buggy display when using debug mode with advshading off.
