Graphics Prob in cata after reinstall

I was fine before the reinstall, and since I couldnt patch automatically I did the manual 1.5 patch. Everything is fine but the catacombs. Heres what I am seeing. Yes my video card drivers are updated, just did them last night since I reformatted/reinstalled stuff. Its a nvidia 7800 gt card (256mb pci).





Even manually downloaded the files I saw in another post.

Looks like a texture problem. Try redownloading and replacing the CATACOMBS.TXB file =)

see if you can find glitches or easter eggs first. Maybe it has some secrets?

try reinstall of this see if it updates correctly, you may have a cross linked file trying to load up.

ea patch 1.5

After the install turn off comp for at least 5 min to get everything out of memory, turn it back on and see what happens. pls let us know if everything is ok.

also you mentioned reformat/reinstall are you sure you updated everything? computer OS wise not game wise all patches, Security alerts, dx files ect?

This happens to me in 4Falls now and then, though a restart of the client always fixes it for me.

nVidia chips from series 6 and 7 use a Shader 3.0 engine are you sure you have the latest DX installed this card uses (DirectX 9.0c). also HEAT is your worst enemy is the card properly vented? you might want to add another fan to the back of the case for better ventilation. 4x4 fans gen run at most $14.00 in a higher priced store.

Properly vented, Check. I downloaded the latest driver for my card, before I put ea back on my computer too. Straight from nvidia website.

hummm gotta think this one out for few so it can be narrowed down better. Thinking something is still in memory and not clearing out or the DL patch did not install itself correctly.
i love a challenge give me some time we get it figured out i promise.

Well just put ea on a different partition and no probs. So maybe a slight hiccup while installing or something. But if I ever want wierd graphics I guess I have the option. :P
