Cloth map wonkiness

from Elemental Forums

ok this is the problem, cloth-map only shows the outer edge of the terrain, with the rest of the world rendered as large blank black space. I don't know if its a bug, my video card (ati raideon 5700 series), my drivers or what. I've tried changing a couple of ingame options, lighting, shadows, cloth map texture size to no effect. Ideas anyone? btw: using the most current drivers and fallen enchantress beta version.

My suggestion: Screenshot it, catch the debug file and post it on the "FE Support", there is a better chance it will be noticed by the support team ;).  That said sounds very mystic, I have not experienced this myself, hope you get it fixed since its a shame if some parts of the game wont work for some people :(

The Debug file can be found at "Documents/My Games/Fallen Enchantress" and specific name is "debug.err"

To post a screenshot directly on the forum you will need to upload it to a different site, like imageshack, and then include it by clicking the little green tree icon.

2 helpers just in case you need to know :D

Hello

Same here on an ATI 6950.

Updated ATI drivers, no change.

However, if I turn off Anti-Aliasing off in the game settings (game will advise restarting FE to take affect) Cloth Map restored!

Hope it helps!

If you have Dropbox, just dump the debug.err in your public Dropbox folder and share the link here.  Otherwise use an internet service such as pastebin.

Also you should let the devs know what the specs are for your comp and OS (along with your video card.)  Many graphical issue have shown up for XP and 32 bit users.
