Help!! characters super glitched!!! See photo

[midnyte18]

This hasn’t gone away. It is for every single thing npcs monster all characters.. please help in detail. It’s making it impossible to play or fight anything! I just did the new patch_s3d_textured and restarted …nothing…So not sure what else.. it does the same thing on wineq2.0 mode
I’ve messed with all the resolutions nothing there changes it and does it in half and full screen mode..
My cpu was built in 2009 by my brother originally to run WoW and ran great back then so I don’t know wtf I’m doing but somehow I was able to download this game after many hours of watching YouTube and figuring it out lol yes it’s old no I don’t have money to upgrade rn.

I updated drivers/this is what I have I guess
AMD athlon(my) 64 x2 dual core processor 5600+

Please let me know what else I can do or what other info is needed
Thanks all!!!

You may want to try running dgvoodoo 2 if you don’t already. Might help resolve some of these issues.

[Naerron]

dark elf bard? might just be super fast

[midnyte18]

Extra photos plus a message I dunno what to do this is how I am playing the game lol

Im not sure if theres a driver/wrapper fix for this but people have found a couple workarounds for this.

If you have multiple video options (integrated graphics?) You can try switching to that

If not, the issue is related to the RenderEffects folder. If available you can copy the RenderEffects folder from an unpatched install.

If not available you can try reinstalling and when applying the patch do not include the RenderEffects folder

If itÂ’s the 3 ways to stop crashes IÂ’ve watched that and I couldnÂ’t do it there was a step i didnÂ’t have so couldnÂ’t continue

[midnyte18]

Ok yes I’ve watched this one I’ll go through it again tho! Thanks

[Loiterius]

If you have and are still experiencing issues we can see what else to troubleshoot. Just let me know

[Jibartik]

I dont have a link for a fresh instal, idk if its that though, Ihave had a bug like this once in a game and someone told me itw as my 3D card, I switched it and the game was fine.

I dont know if that's your issue, if its just characters it might not be I have no idea. But if you see other 3D issues maybe its that? If it's just characters im suspicious if its the 3D card, but idk also I have no clue.

[midnyte18]

Holy Shishkabob Kavious was right TY:) .. I reinstalled the game and downloaded the v55 files without the render effects files and it’s normal now just laggy but better than that craziness I had going on lol..

Loiterius I will also watch and do the video to hopefully clean up the lag as well! Thanks for everyone’s input glad its resolved!!
Hope this will help others with this same issue !

[Loiterius]
