<div class="IPBDescription">Screen shots of ns2_veil graphical glitches at random</div>Hello there, I've been experiencing some random graphical glitches in different areas of ns2_veil (brush-based I guess? no idea if Spark uses brushes). I didn't see anyone else getting this in the search results.
Cargo transfer hive

Cargo transfer hive, east exit

Vents west of pipeline hive, effecting alien sight too

Other common places I can re-produce this issue are sub-sector hive (on the east side looking towards the west/overlook exit), west corridor into cargo hive (more often when leaving the hive), and topographical (most directions and positions).
I have a Gigabyte GeForce 560Ti GPU, over-clocked by manufacturer. All graphics settings are switched on, apart from the experimental texture pipe-lining. I tried turning them all off but that didn't make any difference, though I'm not sure if you have to restart or re-connect for those to take effect (I just changed them mid-game and hit Apply).
These glitches didn't block any movement/fire, they were just opaque and visually annoying. Moving or turning very slightly will vary the size of the glitches and their presence at all.

Nice to see it's already a known issue with a clear cause (build 216), and that it's more common on nVidia GeForce 560* GPU's. Sorry :)
