i have a problem, just installed nfsu2 and everything loaded fine, saw all the videos fine.. but all of the cars are white, the white as in there's no detail in them at all.. windows are white, body white, wheels white.. can't tell any of the cars apart other than a little body differences...

anybody know whats wrong? my detail is not on the lowest, its on the second step up from the lowest..

any clues?

did u buy the game?... but that shouldnt be the problem... hmmm graphics card/drivers is what im guessing it is...

captain nellie · Post by **captain nellie** » 16 Nov 2004, 07:50

yeah i bought the game, i'm running a geforce4 mx 550 i believe it is, every other graphical part runs fine, its just the cars.. i've even installed it on a lesser graphics computer and i can see the cars (same cd)

downloaded the latest drivers immediately before i installed the game, i'm current on everything the technical support says.. all green check marks

nvidia has a new driver out... it just came out nov 9th.. so try that... i installed that new driver and everything worked better than before (but i never had ur problem...) u should try that... i have an nvidia card too, but its a 5900xt oc

Have you tried turning off all options in video settings?

captain nellie · Post by **captain nellie** » 16 Nov 2004, 23:20

yup tried running with everything off, everything max, everything in the middle.... nothing shows the cars

captain nellie · Post by **captain nellie** » 17 Nov 2004, 00:21

uninstalled and installed the demo version, same problem..

i'm not entirely sure how it can be my video card since everything else loads up fine and i've seen people with the same video card as me seeing the cars...

any ideas?

what would i be looking for there? nvidia just did a offical release of the driver on the 9th of november..

and i have that installed

the latest drivers r not allways best, i sugest u use omega drivers

yes, i tried omega drivers on a friend's computer which had the same problem, and it solved the issue. His video card is a GeForce 2 MX-200.

Relja55's suggestion is the one good it seems, Captain Nellie, u got to try this since it mightly solves ur issue.

okay omega drivers claims to be off of the 66.71 drivers, do i need to have those installed to use them? or can i just install over it?

NicosClakos · Post by **NicosClakos** » 17 Nov 2004, 20:39

u can install all over the nvidia ones, it's what ive done, and it works like a charm (omega drivers are also standalone drivers, they don't need a previous install of nvidia ones).
but if u want to do things more cleanly, u cant uninstall nvidia ones previously, to return to the defaut windows vga driver, and then install the omega drivers... It's all upon u.

Hope this will work as it worked for me !

yes just tried it, did the quality install (they give you a choice between quality and performance)

it overwrote the 66.93 drivers, loaded up the game and i saw cars

thank you very much!!
