9800pro and splinter cell

M

Mike

I just got this card and playing splinter cell(patched 1.2b). I'm having
problems where there are very bright areas in the game such as very bright
squares in the training section and when I got to the first level everything
seems to be on fire in the building that is on fire (even areas that are not
supposed to have fires)
Is this normal or is it something that needs addressing?
My specs:
XP pro sp1
Jetway polaris KT400
Athlon XP2100+ (@ 2158 Mhz)
Crucial Radeon 9800 Pro 128meg (catalyst 3.5 and not oc and AGP 8x enabled)
Crucial DDR 3200 (1 Gig)
DX9.0a
other stuff

If you are wearing the NV goggles, this is normal. Does it do this when not
wearing any goggles? Additionally, you could play with the in-game
gamma/brightness settings.

Good luck,
Ceyko

Splinter cell doesn't work properly with anti aliasing enabled - if you
have it enabled then try disabling it.

The problem is happening even when not wearing goggles.
Exact same problem as described by Miez.
Will try disabling AA and see even though the graphics are nice with AA on.

on.

If you had AA enabled then this will definetely have been causing problems
(square blocks of 'light' hovering in front of windows etc)! FWIW I find it
works fine with AF enabled - just not AA..... Running it in a higher res
helps as far as jaggies are concerned!
