Title: help with colour icons re radar
Post by: sidey on July 09, 2007, 02:17:37 AM

If anyone knows how to sort this glich ill be forever endebted to them lol..
I dont get coloured icons (dots , blips) on my map and i cant see the red around bases to know if they are the capturable ones.. Ive played with the gui options and it adjsts the enme colours on the maps,,, however all cons are black (on map) so i never know what the hells around me until i get in game visual,,ive downloaded a version to my laptop (warptop) it has the coloured map icons,, however unplayable due to warp/graphic issues.

appreciate any helpful responses that may lead to resolving this problem

you have the wrong drivers for your video card. Post the first third of a DXdiag here, and let the gurus tell you which drivers are best for your card.

I am going to guess you have an ATI/AMD 9000 series video card.  If that is the case, you need the Catalyst 4.12 drivers to solve the problem you are having.

sidey, the Catalyst 4.12 drivers will fix the problem.  If you still have it, then either you failed to remove the previous drivers, before installing the Catalyst 4.12's or you really did not get the Catalyst 4.12's installed.

If you install any driver after Catalyst 4.12, you will have the problem.  Catalyst 4.12 drivers do not require .NET.  If you have to install/update .NET, then you installed a later driver.
