When im welding or if i am Mutating the bar at the bottom of the screen is completely white. It is just a blank pure white bar.

has anybody found a fix on the problem of the game just closing itself? it's not related to hardware, Direct3D or OpenGL since it only happens in NS and not in CS, DOD or TFC.

hey guys, might I sugest 2 things to yalls:
1) do a search before asking stuff (often you problem has ben ans)
2) if you are looking for help, create a new topic and post all of your info
ok, all yalls with the 'proticall not set to 46 thing, do a search, it has been ans and I don't know the ans
It works with XP, you have to give more sys specs (like details ) and exactly whats up
@ElectricSheep try running in open GL mode, that might fix your probs (it borks under D3D and software)
@goerdje Don't run from the desktop icon
@ShawnD there are alot of things that could do that, again start a new thread and give us all your sysspecs and we will try to help <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
everthing in the game works fine, exept the menu, when i press right mouse button, all that apears in a small amount of jumbled up words that resmble the commands, someone told me since it didnt work to relaod the game. i did it five times with no avail, someone told me to type toggle somehting i cant rmember, anyway it wont work, o and i also made the graphics higher and lower
i'm having the exact same problem an' i can't seem to fix it either. i've reinstalled several times and changed the graphics options but it hasn't helped. i've looked around but there doesn't seem to be anyone whose knows how to fix it. Anyone got any ideas on how to unscramble it?
Every time i try to create a lan or internet game i cant, why? because for some twisted reason, i dont get the natural selection maplist, i get the half life map list, i'd really appreciate any kind of a solution to this, ive installed ns on 2 computers and both have the same problem, thank you for your time <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::onos::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tiny.gif'><!--endemo-->

Thank you, and for the last few who posted here:
@mat and Rhod
NS does not support Software mode, use either OGL or D3D (preferably OGL b/c it is better). If your G Card dosn't support either, I am sorry but you are screwed mate
oh and it is gotten to via: Config -> vidoe -> Video Modes
@INVICTI Don't use the desktop shortcut, it is bugged <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Go <a href='http://annoyances.org/exec/show/article03-300' target='_blank'>Here</a> for removal (free, not some $20 thing to get rid of it)

Instant Messege Pop-Ups: Disable it before playing, or get <a href='http://www.trillian.cc' target='_blank'>Trillian</a> and use its away window to contain them (Trillian replaces Y!, IRC, MSN, AIM, ICQ all in one)
If its some other spam from something you don't know about it is probably adware: Go <a href='http://www.cexx.org/' target='_blank'>Here</a> To learn about it, then get either <a href='http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/' target='_blank'>Ad-Aware</a> or <a href='http://security.kolla.de/' target='_blank'>SpyBotSD</a> to remove it
If there are any more, PM me about them, I'll try to find a way to solve it
