Weird graphics distortion on Mac OSX

The Turretnator · #1 08-31-2009, 08:43 AM

Hey folks. This just started after the most recent Altitude update. Once i enter a game, my display goes all haywire and bit-crushed. I've attached an image of what i looks like below. It happens ONLY when i run Altitude, not on any other application on my computer. Resetting the computer's display resolution temporarily fixes the problem, but within a few minutes it begins degrading again. Its not a RAM issue (ive got 8 Gigs)... I'm wondering if theres maybe some sort of preference file that has been corrupted... Who knows....

Anyone have any clue whats goin on, please speak up!

Try to resinstall it, u can download it here.Submit bugreport. To do that, run altitude game, press fn+F1 (open console) then type /reportbug. Hope this will help.

have you tried running in fullscreen? seems like a video driver issue.

The only time I've seen anything like that on a Mac was on the older G5 Mac Pros when the video card was starting to fail.

Do you run anything else graphic intensive?

Prior experience tells me that the green and red crap on screen equals video card fail. Is you card older?
