gfx problem (with Windows7)

Post by AttuWatcher »

Hello, I've just started playing AT today.

I was itching to try the Roman mods but a graphical error appears on the map.
The problem seems to be limited to these mods. I have not had any problem with the included scenarios I have tried so far.

-Operating System, XP? Vista? 32bit, 64bit?

Thanks for the assistance Vic.

Tried the scenario with my laptop (winXP) and no gfx errors. I suppose it's my video card drivers or just Win7. Will try new drivers later. 

I hope it's not a problem with Win7 [:@]

Kudos to you Vic, for such fine support.
