Tech Issue: Sky and Weather

Luethar · #1 07-30-2011, 07:59 AM

Since the EQ11 changes, I have experienced only black sky and the "sun" is a huge purple glowing orb in the sky. Is there anyway to get back the sky? Oh and even on the character log in screen the sky is black. I have no weather either. I hear thunder but do not see rain nor lightning.

Any help to resolve this issue is greatly appreciated.

your options in displays tab shows Sky Type as off? simple or complex?

Simple and complex yields the same results. Though simple everything is just black. Complex gives me the huge ass purple orb in the sky.

*Edit* None of the recent updates v12 have fixed this issue.

Sounds like a video card driver issue to me. Have you updated any drivers (or not updated for a while)?

in the last few days i have had issue with my gfx card and had to plug my monitor into my motherboard temporarily while i fix it and even with updated drivers to the factory gfx of my computer the sky has not changed leading me to believe it has something to do with some file in my EQ folder?
