There are some visual problems still not fixed on NT client.
- water is still black and not transparent.
- when something changes on sky it seems it is created from 2 layers. when sky changes inner layer that is with some weird color shows, then after some seconds shows outer one and all goes to normal. still sky looks wierd for some seconds
- dance karma mirror animation. when you dance animation do not move with you.
- MoD animation is not like vinyl, but look more like black line spiral and not like normal spell animation.
- Eferias castle door still goes transparent if you look it from inside.

This is about the two issues for the latest patch 1.5.1. On my system I can not switch Characters without the game crashing. Upon game restart the error report tool goes through the motions, but hangs when sending to the point I have to kill the game for not responding. Upon doing that I find that the crash trace files have all been deleted from the game folder. I am in my windows partition right now.

Now that I'm playing again I found time to test the engine that dislikes my computer. :P

intel core 2 6420 2.13ghz, geforce 8600 gts, 2gb ram, windows xp

direct 3d and open gl: Game crashes whenever I minimize it when it's loading.

opengl issues:

- Fixed pipeline: Character selection errors, screen 1.
- Loading screen looks a bit strange (the colours), screen 2.
- shader 2-4 produced screen 3, but the new driver (197.13) solved this.

direct 3d issues:

- still not playable with fixed pipeline (and shader 2), 15-30 fps and animations are played too slow.
- strange and fast fps drops with shader 3 and otherwise slightly better fps than shader 2/fixed pipeline, same problem with shader 4, just a bit less annoying. (Less fps drops, more fps)

It runs still a bit better in direct 3d now than last time I tried, don't know whether I should blame you or the new nvidia driver :P
But 20 fps and stuttering in birka isn't exactly what you'd expect from a pc being able to play crysis without any problem :/ (But at least I can play regnum with open gl now /edit: Not even that, fps drops when there are more than 15 players :/)

Oh, and congrats, the colour of my beard is finally shown correctly, your fix works :P

With this newest update I have problems with disappearing creatures and characters. They will be there then they will disappear even though others can see them I cannot. Others seem to experience this problem as well. we relog and have a temporary fix but they end up disappearing again a short while later. I also have no character image in the character selection screen, just character name and the background.

When I am attacked by enemy characters that I cannot see .. I consider that to be a problem that makes the game unplayable. I cannot war what i cannot see.

I did not have these problems before the newest update.
