Title: All radar contacts are black
Post by: Pongo on July 07, 2004, 05:09:25 PM

The dots and the bars. Everything is transperant black.
I installed the newest ATI driver last night but the problem still exists.
Is there a dialog that controls dar dot colour?

You must download update drivers. This solved my problem with the black stuff.

Pongo, did yu completely uninstall your old drivers? IIRCC ATI drivers are kinda nitpicky and you have to uninstall them before updating to new ones

In case you haven't checked yet, from the clipboard in game there is an Icon Display setting where you can set the colors for enemies, friendlies, squadies, etc.  The bar colors will correspond with the icon colors.

I'm at my work comp, but IIRC you go Setup -> Preferences -> Video Settings (I think) -> Icon Display.

Thanks Tabasco. I did see that.
I will remove the old drivers down to VGA and then reinstall.
Is there some utility you need to remove them or will add remove programs do it?
