Default Slight Bug (If you'll call it that) With Texmod.

Alright, so every time I load something up via TexMod and run it. It works just fine.

But the thing is, every now and again, after loading a town/outpost or explorable area, the screen will change completely, other than the interface itself. It also varies with all sorts of images, such as completely white, or a part of the world map. It is fixable by just simply downsizing the game and re-sizing, but it does get rather annoying after a while. Here is what I mean:



Anyone have any idea on how I might fix such a problem?

This is one of the risks of TexMod: it is not a bug. It simply has to do with how it interfaces with the game.

I go to options, graphics tab, and check or uncheck vertsync. It does nothing unless you're in a laptop, but it does make things like that disappear. Other times, though you'll end up with something different that is just as annoying. Just check and uncheck that button until you see a clear interface. I think it also depends on how fast your comp is, or how laggy the game is for you. If there's heavy lag, you might see that often and the button checking might help only little.

Its just one of those things that comes with texmod. All you need to do to fix it is open the F11 tab and move the graphics bar down a notch and pull it back up or just minimize Guildwars and pull it back up and this will clear the screen.

That works for me every time and is also the quickest way of clearing it.

This appears to be an inherent problem with Texmod and it's why most people just use Texmod to do their cartography titles, or some other specific thing, and then scrap it. It's just not worth the hassle for most people.

Yeah, that's what I'm forced to do just about every time.

So there is no real way to fix it, other than minimizing and re-sizing?

The only real way to fix it would be to continue development of the software. That is not likely.
If you set shadow quality to low or medium in the graphics tab in options, the frequency of these errors drops significantly.
