Ok, i tested in single player: Hosted a game, added a bot. I played over 10 minutes, .cheat .give all, graphics was perfect, all textures were fine....so it is realy driver related???

This might be a stupid question .. but are you sure you dont have any FPS manager enabled?
For example CA comes with fps manager which changes spring details and this is know to cause some textures to disappear randomly.

What is an fps manager?
I only got VSYNC. Enabled - disapled booth works, but vsync with triple buffer phails.

It's a LUA widget (some sort of plugin so to speak) which enables/disables springs gfx options dynamically based on current fps ingame.

Then the fps manager supposed to be ON during "single" player mode too, but no error (not even a glitch) there.

I have the same problem like mentioned in:
2k4 wrote:Hi,
My stuff: Windows Vista, ATI Radeon 1300, newest drivers
When I give orders while holding shift and then move the screen, Textures, text, overlay disappear
Funny thing is that when I have a unit select AND it has an action que AND I hold shift then I see above again. While when I release shift all dissapears again.
BTW this problem started when I updated ATI drivers.....
Anyone has an idea?

problems started with catalyst 7.11, although I had some crashes with catalyst 7.10 also
to produce the error, just press shift a lot of times while queing and it will start to glitch

For me 7.12 also gives bug with EACH mod, so also CA.
Just press shift tons of times.

I experience the "shift key" problem much less with 7.12.
But I'm still missing shadows
ppl with Catalyst 7.12 could you tell me if you have shadows or not and on which card ?

I have a related issue concerning the display of build-queues and it seems I have found the cause of the problem.
For me the units render fine but the terrain turns grey. Actually it turns to the defined fogcolor for the current map. You guys should switch to the FPS-camera mode and get very close to the ground. Then you should see the textures, the grass and the units nearby. To me it seems it's all about the fog-settings being screwed up somehow.
Someone with the same problem plz verify this behavior.
Im using the latest 7.12 catalyst, q6600, vista ultimate x64, radeon hd2900xt.
