Graphic bug unplayable

trueffel

greetings NS community!

I´ve got a problem with the graphics. If I start my computer and start ns2 everything is fine but its getting odd when I try to start ns2 again or decide to play it later. Every structur is transparent, you can only see the background and some other things like Monitor or the join names (Kaara, Marine, random) in the ready room. So unplayable. I tryed to make a screenshot but all i could get was a dark picture.

My notebook specs:
Intel Core i7-3630QM CPU @ 2.40GHz
RAM 8GB
AMD Radeon HD 7970M
Windows 7 professional edition, 64-bit service pack 1

I hope u can help me at this

Maybe try deleting your "%appdata%/natural selection 2/cache" folder. This makes the game recompile all the shaders again as if you are running it for the first time, can take a few minutes the first time you join a game but it might fix your problem.

Hint: press windows key + R, then type "%appdata%/natural selection 2" and push return, then delete the folder "cache" in the window that opens.

He's got the anti aliasing issue.

Go to your catalyst control center, go to gaming or 3d or whatever, find anti aliasing, set: Let application decide or something along those lines.

The problem is you're graphics card is forcing a type of anti aliasing that ns2 simple doesn't support, so it gives up... or maybe it anti aliases everything away... oh wait, I just got confirmation, the actual cause is [REDACTED].

And what is the actual cause?

Video driver forcing antialiasing in an engine which cannot use it due to deferred rendering
