checkered rows on ground texture problem

Post by staydown »

I just downloaded the crowsnest enduro track. When the track loads in game, there is checkered flag rows on the ground across the whole map. It is also present on my other tracks as well. I have read on here that people were getting this problem when they alt- tabbed out while they were on the internet and stuff, but this does it on a fresh start with nothing else running. I deleted the crowsnest track and restarted my computer, but the problem persists. Is my graphics card hitting the crapper or is there a corrupt file somewhere?

I had it with my old computer.

Try tabbing through the editor menu, and go back. See if that works. If it doesn't, smooth with 0 strength over the whole map and it should go away.


If you don't have the editor, I have no idea. Never figured it out.

Well that fixed it, I opened up the game with the editor and there was no checkerboard, then i exited out and opened up the game without the editor and everything was fixed, kinda strange if you ask me

Ideally, enable both Ground Mipmaps and Framebuffer Objects and get working drivers. Failing that, try different combinations of those 2 settings to work around the problem.
