GtkRadiant 1.5: Strange texture while editing.

Post by Jusser »

I'm having some troubles with GtkRadiant 1.5
Sometimes I get really weird textures, while I'm editing. It's quite annoying, so maybe you could help?
Here's a screenshot.

Does somebody knows of this?

There was such a case recently, IIRC.
It might help to mention on what OS (Windows version etc.) you are running the editor.

Yea, remember it too, just recently. Was it something with Windows 7 and the UI-theme? No?

I have the same on XP - I already made a thread like this. The result was that something with the ati drivers was wrong or something like that..

Well, ye. My OS is Windows XP Professional.
I'll check my drivers.

I've updated all my drivers, but I'm still having the same problem.
Does somebody have ideas?

I think the problem came with the new drivers.

(at least for me)

Oh, in that case, I could uninstall some instead. :olo:

It is an editor bug - like yours...

But it's not really the same.
But ehh, still having the problem, after uninstalling some drivers, and shutting down my game booster. Nothing really seems to help.

It happens if I select a brush sometimes, the exact cause of it? I've no idea.
Does somebody know what could cause it?

Can't you just try another Radiant?

I just got used to 1.5! lol. But if there isn't a fix yet, I'll just go back to my sweet 1.2.9 or something. :P

Did you try different settings of "hardware texture compression" ?

I tried one, I'll check the others to see what happens.

Hardware Texture Compression
OpenGL ARB: Fail :disgust:
S3TC DXT1: Fail :disgust:
S3TC DXT3: Fail :disgust:
S3TC DXT5: Fail :disgust:

So, it doesn't matter which Hardware Texture Compression I use. :tear:
