this is not a problem with the game, its your drivers or your card, or maybe directx version. its already been answered in the steam forums its your PC

i had that same problem with 2 previous 9700 Pro's wiht UT2k4, its not the game

It's the card? In what way? Broken card? Not powerful enough? Seems to work on all my other games including new ones like Pacific Assault (Demo).

I'm going to try it in Windows 2000 again. I'll see if it still happening there.

I never had a single gfx glitch like that when I played.. definately a driver issue or something!

Some nice high res pics I took here btw if people wanna see - shouldn't be any spoilers or anything :)

My crappy 9600Pro EZ did me proud :D

I preloaded as I went along, so I can't say how long it took me :D

yeh, i was hoping to do something similar, download overnight...but my dad kept trying to avoid doing it, so i had to wait until late this morning  :angry:

You just got it this morning? Or was there a new patch released? *Refreshes Steam*

ha, no need to refresh, i just got it this morning :pinch:

but again in a sense, it's early because it's a Christmas present, so I'm happy that I'm getting it now...now only 10 minutes left on my download of hl2, so if no replies then that's the reason :shifty:

4 hours it took to download HL2 and then an extra hour to download CS : Source and then a little while longer to download the SDK and after I downloaded the SDK my problms with starting HL2 went away (the memory could not be read to error) and I could start playing :)

Bought it on DVD as soon as i could, with me not having a Credit Card, was the only option :p other than use someone else's...but hey :p....

Although if i had used someone's credit card, id prolly been able to get the Silver package....cost me ?35....think its only ?26 for the bronze on Steam....oh wel:):)

Maybe (if they do it) will get someone to let me use it on an upgrade so i can get DoD:S and HL::):) bloody loved HL....

    • Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 is getting a simultaneous release across PC and all consoles by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Square Enix showed up to the Summer Game Fest presentation today with multiple trailers showing off its next chapter in the Final Fantasy VII Remake saga. The final chapter of this trilogy now has an official name too, with it being dubbed Final Fantasy VII Revelation, following up Final Fantasy VII Remake and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth from recent years. Vincent Valentine, Cid, Cloud, Barret, Tifa, and more showed up in the trailers as they battle against enemies, or 'Weapons,' from the final chapter. "As the world teeters on the brink of annihilation, the final battle against Sephiroth begins," says the trailer description. "A meteor mars the sky, monstrous planetary guardians wreak havoc across the globe, and the fires of war rage. Now, Cloud and his companions must stand against this chaos to not only decide the planet's fate, but bring a legendary conflict to its conclusion." Following the reveal trailer, the show also dropped some gameplay footage that shows off a new way to travel across the open world using the Highwind airship. Players will be able to swap characters on during battles, use tactical mode to synchronize with allies, and summon their entities. Cid Highwind and Vincent Valentine are joining the party this time too. “FINAL FANTASY VII, first released in 1997, has been beloved by fans for many years and has since become a “legend” in its own right," added producer Yoshinori Kitase. "The FINAL FANTASY VII Remake Series that began in 2020 with everyone’s passionate support is finally reaching its climactic finale with FINAL FANTASY VII REVELATION. The story’s final destination represents my emotions spanning thirty years working on this title" One of the biggest revelations of this announcement, however, was the multiplatform release confirmation from the get-go. Square Enix will be releasing Final Fantasy VII Revelation across PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5 in Spring 2027 without any timed exclusivity programs.
    • Hello, Having a simple utility to allow Microsoft's customers to configure the context menu, with a few options like showing the current menu, showing a proposed menu/alternate configurations, loading and saving the settings, and a "reset to default" option would have solved this. Let Microsoft provide a recommended default look-and-feel, maybe a couple alternative configurations, like a basic/simplified version of that, and a more advanced version for that, and that would have been very well-received, I think. Microsoft could even had offered a library of different configurations, similar to what they have done in the past for Windows Media Player skins, Themes, and desktop wallpaper.

    • No Steam release. It's gonna fail on PC. Even an Epic Online engineer said that people go there for the free stuff and then immediately go back to Steam.
    • Nice. Admittedly, his other games never interested me, but this seems pretty cool.
    • It's time to say goodbye to Edge and switch back to Firefox. There's no way to disable the ugly rounded corners that appear everywhere. Not even on the page frame. No one uses screens with rounded corners, you idiots.
