Graphics issues

Anybody else having texture problems? Everything else seems to render ok (Units, menus etc), but the planets themselves have no textures on them!

I'm a new user so I can't post a picture to illustrate it, but I do hope that it doesn't mean my GFX isn't up to the job...

What operation system you using? What hardware you have?

If you on Windows please upload your DxDiag.txt

yeah, i'm using windows 7 - this is what I see, and this is the dxdiag.txt...

You have outdated drivers:

Code:

Card name: NVIDIA GeForce 315M
Driver Date/Size: 12/3/2010 02:07:56, 12485736 bytes

Download and install latest here:

Thanks, that fixed it! Weird because I had updated the drivers before I installed (obviously didn't work)

Probably you used drivers from notebook manufacturer website. They're always outdated, you Nvidia, AMD and Intel websites instead.

I've got an AMD Radeon 6850 1GB and I find that at certain zoom levels I get ugly squares instead of land textures in some places. I'm pretty sure my drivers are up to date (I'll double check later), could this be a general problem with AMD or perhaps a lack of VRAM?

I often get black/white stripes flickering all over the place. My drivers are up-to-date and it worked fine in Alpha.

Can you both upload your DxDiag.txt?

Here's my DxDiag:

EDIT: Note, I've just checked the Radeon website and it seems there are new drivers. I'll report back if I still have problems.

Your graphics drivers are 6 months old, you should update them.

I've updated the drivers and it's better, but still not perfect. I'll put up a screenshot when I get a chance.
