Graphic Glitches All Over the Place?

[Goldfish4209 9]

Odd things have been going on...

1. What's with the building on all the pictures on the front page?

2. Someone's avatar will just show up above every post, or beside it every time.

3. ^^^ has happened with pictures also.

What's going on? I'm using firefox.

It's firefox. I'm using Microsoft Internet Explorer 7. The problems you listed may be from the Mozilla Firefox browser. You can find Internet Explorer 9 from Microsoft at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/ie/default.mspx

Any other problems, just let me know.

Not sure at first, but I do know that the answer isn't switching to IE7 (which is as high as they are right now). The next time this happens, get screen shots.

How's that?

[Cleaner475 150]

eh?

It may be something related to your screen resolution or something. I have a PSP on which I sometimes use to view Simtropolis and the graphics are all over the place.

Check your firefox settings.  I don't have a problem with FF 2.0.0.3

[Goldfish4209 9]

Which settings? I don't think I ever saw any graphics settings.

[A Nonny Moose 8,261]

You are right, there aren't any.  How about your machine?  Have you checked which Java version you are running?  Make sure you have the latest one from Sun.

ok... If you can, could you list your system specs? and when did this problem begin to happen? and a simple one, have you tired loading ST in firefox's safe mode or IE? It may be more then FF or it may be one of your settings in FF.

Funny, it works in IE but not FF. It started about a week or 2 ago. Specs:

WinXP Home SP2

Pentium 4 516

1G DDR2 PC3200 RAM, 2x256, 1x512. Stick of 512 was a bolt on.

Sound Blaster Audigy 4

Geforce 5500 FX 256MB RAM

HP pavilion a1102n

I have absolutely no idea what the mobo is. The board says ASUS, BIOS says american megatrends, has a bunch of other names printed on some of the chips on the board.

Hm, dunno about java, never really paid any attention to that. Where do you find that?

Please please please please pleeeease don't make me go back to IE!

It works fine for me in FireFox.

Sunfish:  Google for the JRE version you need.  Search key Java runtime.

Or, open your control panel's Java applet, and click on update.

Download Firefox again.  What Extensions and plugins do you have in Firefox?

[crazykid4simcity 1]

There is also another browser called Opera which I am using at the moment. It is alot faster than Interent Explorer. I don't know why it is called opera, but if you want that then its at Opera.com.

[Goldfish4209 9]

Java just autoupdated to version 1.6.0.

Extensions in use:

PDF download

pwdhash

talkback(I think that came with FF)

URL fixer

I can't find the plugins, arrgg!

I have heard of and tried Opera, but I like firefox better.

[A Nonny Moose 8,261]

Do you still have the problem?

[Goldfish4209 9]

Well, I think it's gone for ST, but newegg's seriously screwed up. But that's not your/you guys' problem.
