No sector numbers and lines on maps
« on: November 01, 2016, 12:11:03 PM »
Some maps they are not there at all and some there is something there but unreadable. Not all maps but most of them. I just tried every arena that is up at the moment. And only Axis vs Allies arena is normal.

I have changed texture size, deleted all terrains, and even reinstalled the game. Nothing seems to help.  :headscratch:

Also nothing happens when I click "My flight" and "All Flights" on the clipboard map.    :cheers:

You need to be in a mission for these to work.

I have this problem also.  It's as though the grid-lines and sector numbers have been blurred beyond legibility.  The rest of the detail on the maps look fine.  It was especially frustrating during FSO last month to try to give position reports on an unreadable map.

I too am using an AMD card.

Same here and FSO is the only place it is a real problem. I imagine it is the same for a scenario.

Turn on 4096 textures in main menu prefs, that will fix the map numbering issue :)

Actually Kingpin, you are the reason I asked if Frodo was using an AMD vid card. I have talked to a couple of others with the same issue and they all are using AMD cards. I don't know if the info helps or not but hopefully all those effected can post here and maybe that will lead to a solution.
