Title: [FIXED]GTA SA Graphics Problem
Post by: schfifty on March 24, 2008, 04:21:35 am

OK so I got new ATI Drivers, then I downloaded the third party Omega Drivers and decided to uninstall them. I did so. I tried to get into SA_MP today and I double clicked the icon. Nothing. Got on to google and learned that I needed to delete my gta_sa.set file. I did so and it worked after that. Got into the game and the only thing I could see were a few street lights, traffic lights, and a few sky scrapers in the distance. I can also see characters from time to time. I can see chat and text but thats about it. I can also see my own character. Here are my specs:

                   AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Processor
                   1GB PC3200 DDR Memory
                   ATI Radeon Xpress 200 Integrated Graphics with 128MB Shared Memory
                   Windows XP Media Center 2005
                   DirectX 9.0c

I think the recent and frequent driver changes I have made are causing the problems...any reasons you can think of?

I was under the impression that Direct X 10 was only for Vista...I have XP ;) BTW I tried rolling back my drivers to like 2005  :trust: still nothing...maybe reinstall GTA...that is if I can find the disc I burnt

Well the drivers thing didn't work...I have a feeling my card is overheating maybe. Here is exactly what I am experiencing in game however Half Life 2: Deathmatch still works fine. http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u133/schfifty_5/sa-mp-105.jpg (http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u133/schfifty_5/sa-mp-105.jpg)


EDIT: ok well I need to be beaten with the dunce hat and then have it sewn on to my scalp...I typed /exit and my graphics are better now...*cough*...it was weird though because while I was in the interior, I could still see people and cars but not the map itself.
