Graphic Error in Wesnoth 1.10.3

Post by Ac3R71J0 »

Hi, i just downloaded the game and installed it with no problems.
I start playing and i notice the graphics are bugged. Its like the screen its not being refreseh properly.
I leave a screen capture here.

Computer Specs:
Windows 7 64 bit
Core i7 920
6 gb ram ddr3
2x Gforce 560 GTX ti SLI

the directx drivers are up to date and the dxdiags show no system problems.
Thanks in Advance

You should also provide the devs with your stderr file, so they'll be able to see what's the error. You can find instructions how to find it here.
Aside from that, I had this problem ages ago, and IIRC this is due to a corrupted installer/botched installation. You can try re-downloading the installer and re-installing BfW.
I'm not really around any more, but you can find me in TvTropes.

It looks to me like one or more terrain graphics files (or at least the grassland and dirt files) are missing or somehow can’t be loaded. What happens if you install to a different location?

You could check whether there are folders named ‘flat’ and ‘grass’ under data\core\images\terrain in the data directory, and whether they have some key files, in particular green.png under ‘grass’.

I never faced a problem like this in Mac OS X before. Is this only appearing in Windows?

Have you tried putting your 64 bits to 32 bits of color quality (Through your windows settings)?

Follow me :eng:
-press right mouse button at desktop and chose properties;
-press settings (at properties);
-there you could see ''color quality (64 bit)'';
-change it to 32 bit and apply your changes.
This could maybe resolve your problem but i am not sure because i have Win xp and 32 bit of color quality. :|
Note: start wesnoth.exe full colored (not 256 colors)

Here is better idea:
change your display options at preferences inner wesnoth.
There you can see ''show haloing effect'', ''animate map'' and other options(change them and then test your changes).
