Graphical troubles on clean CF/FL install

  • If you remember when I said that at some game it was requiring some files from DX9 to make it work, there are fixes for DX9, when is needed, I just googled it and got few dll files or such that I had to copy.

    Oh, I missed your post ! I think you don't have them around anymore, right ? Remember what you searched or anything related ? I can only find game-related fixed or D3D9 dlls to download...

  • It's the d3d9 dlls I downloaded.

    Ah... Dammit. Already downloaded multiple dx9 dlls put them in system32 or FL directory but nothing changed... Were they the dx9 basic ones ? if that's the case, it didn't do a thing for me =/

  • Yes, I did, FL start in 16 bit mode and can't change to 32 in the options. Textures are fine though.


    You mean there were actually no white textures, no effects boxes ?

  • Oh no, I mean FL vanilla. CF without shaders/hd tex etc, has I wrote in a few of my posts, still show textures as square or whites. Sorry

  • Well I read the whole 6 pages, tried everything which is mentioned here but i still have the same problem like Kolfrad (white squares etc.)
    I have a 680 GTX and I just wanted to ask if there is any solution out now? ?(

    Hi there, I have none sorry. And I completely stopped to try stuff with FL. I'm done with it, as good as it is, I'm not going to trouble myself any longer...



    Thanks everyone for the help anyway !

  • if you have the same card then maybe its a driver problem, maybe something with the compression of graphics we use.
    If you use the vanilla game do you also have white squares?


    I'm playing discovery mod and played vanilla game without any trouble ......
    And if Kolfrad has given up well then i have to wait for the new patch, maybe it will be solved then :S

  • which patch?
    in order to patch something there has to be a bug with the mod but infact there is nothing we could reproduce here
    the mod was released almost 2 years ago and has been played by thousands of players without a problem... just recently ppl appeared here with such a problem
    that leads me to the conclusion that this is a problem with specific hardware (or hardware malfunction) or it is a driver problem


    I am damn sure that the texture definition standards for FL have not recently changed nor has there been any change on FLs render pipeline over the past 10 years
    with other words: we can not fix anything coz nothing is wrong with the mod


    if you will google this problem you will find thousands of threads for many other games where this problem happens aswell
    often there are hardware problems which have lead to such strange stuff but also using different drivers very often helped to get the problem solved... in some cases reason for such problems were virus infected PCs


    oh.. and please dont compare crossfire with discovery or vanilla (those are 10 years behind the graphical evolution)

  • Indeed, there is nothing "wrong" with this mod, but there could be a way to avoid this bug, as an extra... or at least finding the source of such issue so we can explain it to those who have it, in the future.



    Anyway @OP, this bug is not new, when I asked you what's needed for CF to play on a new windows, that was when I started having this same bug, on my old PC. And I sure know how to keep a driver installed and updated to it's last version... it could be related to the order in which stuff was installed, or something missing, some settings... never knew :/


    Also, I remember seeing/hearing people with this square effects and missing textures bug since before me.


    Now, with Kolfran investigation/help on the topic, I guess I should do some more detailed investigation on my old PC (after getting it to work again xD) to see what went wrong.

  • yes, we had people with white textures before
    and what did we tell them?
    -> "use the compatibility mode during the mod activation since your graphic card has a texture size limit"
    and that helped
