Shadows of things while playing!

Post by Learoyjenkins »

Hey I just installed the game today and I followed the instructions and even did the patch and hotfix and when I play the game not only am I getting texture flickering all the fences buildings and bushes are just shadows. I can see all the units and base buildings but nothing else not even the capture points. It seems like an awesome mod but I've been searching for hours on how to fix this and I just can't figure it out. I'm using windows 8 and Intel HD graphics on a dell desktop. If anyone know anything on how to fix it or maybe how to fix it PLEASE help! thx.

Change your graphics shader setting to "high".

I tired all the graphics settings and nothing. The game normally works fine with no problems.

Did you change the shader setting specifically to high though? It has to be high, anything else (especially ultra) may cause issues.

Yes I have tried high but only in game. When I am at the main menu and try to change any options the game goes to like windowed version and a black screen and ends up freezing up.

It seems like you have a deeper problem of some kind then. Does this also happen when playing vCoH, or any other mods?

I have not tired any other mods on COH but the original company of heroes not modded does work fine.

I think me means the one in the "Options" menu, outside of a game. Just start up CoH and go the Options menu, take a screenshot of that. The one you're showing doesn't have the needed specs.
