Got this graphical glitch with Dark Places

[Blood Vengeance]

I'm experiencing graphical glitches with DP, this video (not mine) explains it all:

I use latest DP buidl (Windows 7 64bit version)

thats a known darkplaces bug with newer nvidia GPU's,
which is related to how darkplaces handles RealTime shadows

only way that can be fixed is to poke LordHavoc to update darkplaces engine and fix the bug

I'm failing to see the glitch. Can somebody explain this to me?

[talisa]

@izhido
its the realtime shadows flickering

like this:



those are not artifacts caused by compression from decoding,
thats also seen during the actual gameplay itself, those glitchy shadows

[Blood Vengeance]

I've got an Nvidia indeed, i gave Darkplaces to a friend with an ATI and never experienced this glitch. But Darkplaces unfortunately it's not updated anymore

you can always try contacting lordhavoc through his email:

Thanks I'll check it now. Sometimes looking for certain threads is quite hard, I think that important threads like that should be put in Sticky
