Problem

The place to ask for technical help with running the demo or the full game...

Problem

Hey,

Ever since I first installed Freelancer I have had problems when going into nebulas/gas clouds or whatever places, such as the Badlands or Sigma 13 for example. Now I am aware that normally visibility would decrease, but when I fly into these places, my ship disappears altogether! I cant see anything except the hud options, and a blue or green (whatever colour the gas cloud is) screen. No ship, No weapons graphics, No thrust graphics, no cruise graphics. I can't see enemy ships, I cant see asteroids, nothing. Now this isn't a major problem, and I have been flying in MP with it for months. However, trying to do battle in these gas clouds with even computer opponents is tedious, let alone human players.

If no one knows a fix to this problem, then its no big issue, but it would make my life easier if there was.

Griffon.

PS. I have a pentium 3 with Geforce 3 and DirectX 9. My computer can usually run mosty games that are out now with no problems, such as UT2003, CC Generals, BF1942.....
