Hello All,

I have gotten NS2 to run and connect to a server, however everything is black/dark!

I can see the in-game UI overlay and chat and whatnot.

Occasionally the game will flicker and let me see things for a split second.

All settings are on low.

The model viewer / map editor show everything fine.

Any ideas?? :(

    Hmmm, I'm no tech expert but I would try reinstalling if no other suggestions work

    Would you list your system specs and what driver youre using for your GPU? This sounds like your card may be malfunctioning.

    And can you post a screenshot as well? I have a feeling it might be related to anti-aliasing which can be solved by disabling the forced anti-aliasing in your video card control center (right click on desktop)

    Try updating your GFX card driver, and also turn off your overclock. See if that helps.
