I have absolutely no textures in Halo with my 9800 Pro. All the objects are there. But no textures. Anyone else have Halo and have this issue?

I noticed it the first time when I was playing the demo.

The settings I found that work for me were...
Under the 3D Tab...

1)3D settings set to default/balanced
2)OpenGL settings set to default/balanced

I dont know about the custom settings/I havent messed with it enough.

My R9800NP plays Halo great with default catalyst settings. I never touched anything.

Try setting to default and see if that helps.

Mine's been nothing but smooth since the 3.8 install. Games played: CS, Halo, UT2K3, UTGOTYE, BF1942, Morrowind, MS FS 2003, Tiger Woods, NOLF2, C&C, and NWN

No probs whatsoever. Feels smooth as butter to me. Just an FYI.

I dunno. Everything was at the default settings. Went into multiplayer to a CTF game on Blood Gulch and everything was textureless. Tried singleplayer and it was fine. I'm back to the 3.7 drivers and it works fine. Where do you get utilities or whatever so you can overclock your ATI cards?

Have to say, Halo looks better on a 9800 Pro than on an FX 5900. The cloak effect looks 10x better and I can actually see people now when they're cloaked like in the Xbox version. Bad for them, good for me. Everything else is the same but that really caught my eye.

same here, i've had no prblems with the 3.8's.......and i've been having fun screwing around with the new shader effects for the last week or so.........really hard to snipe in RTCW with the ascii turned on :D
 
play the demo to completion last night, and 3hrs of multiplayer too. No problems here (other than freakng lag on some servers, but that's normal)

Also I HATE it when people get into the ghost and then just fly around nailing people just as they spawn, especially running them over. Cheap Ba$tardz!

Apparently HL2's coming out in April according to Gamespot after DOOM3.

Half Life 2 is out there, it's just called the SIMS. Once you're finally free of it's grasp you realize you wasted Half your Life Squared (yes mathematicians calculate it, and wast more time). :wink:

Yeah it's sad it's delayed, and if any of the original delay was for nV then I'm pissed, even if the source code leaked later, I'd still be able to play it and games based on it sooner. Oh well, wait, wait, wait, and then maybe wait some more. Now if only I could get a Barney mod for Halo!
