GPU Compatibility Bugs

by Necrode · in Torque 3D Professional · 06/07/2010 (7:54 pm) · 5 replies

Hello,

My NVIDIA graphics card died so I got an ATI Radeon 5670. One mission now crashes upon start and in another mission the floor of the level is invisible!
What gives?

Peace

They locked me in here with a computer, and said I don't get to leave until I've completed a computer game.

Not sure if this will help but have you run the cleanshaders.bat to clean out all the procedural shaders?
I've had similar issues in the past and that often fixes it when we move from one machine to another with a level and the GPU profiles vary.

Thanks for the tip, but I tried it and it has no effect.

On further investigation, I see this message in my console:
No card profile core/profile/D3D9/ATITechnologiesInc.ASUSEAH5670Series.cs
No card profile core/profile/D3D9/ATITechnologiesInc.ASUSEAH5670Series.81400016095.cs

What does this mean?

That message is harmless, it's just the profile system looking for a card-specific profile (which is optional). It allow you to run custom script code for specific video cards if you need.

Looks like my invisible meshes might be the same issue as this:
