[FIXED] Pixel problems

Postby Zen » Tue Oct 23, 2012 10:09 pm

Good day!

This is what I get:

This is what I should be getting:

Ignoring the names and brightness, I think it's clear what is the problem.
I have Win XP, 64 X2 dual core, 2.11 Ghz and 1 GB of RAM.
It's not a super computer but it can run the game without any problems -I haven't experienced any crashes- but the pixels distortion... it kills it.

You have an ATI card maybe? In other threads on this forum, there were mentions of some driver settings related to anti-aliasing (if I recall correctly) that should be changed for FTL. It solved the issue for people who had exactly the same problem as you.

Sorry I can't be more specific right now.

Yes, an ATI card.
Sadly, I can't choose -or know how- certain applications for proper anti-aliasing changes. I tried to find a 'selection option' but no luck.

Try adding the line "swapTexture=1" to your settings.ini file, which can be found in your FTL installation folder if you're using Windows.
