Curse

Alright, so I'll start with the easy question first. As people may have realized, certain graphics in the game stop moving after you've been online for X amount of hours... Considering I leave my game on a lot(Usually in the middle of a dungeon or mission or vanquish), it's quite annoying to come back to still flames and other un-animated objects. Is there a way to change this to never happen? I wouldn't think there is, but doesn't hurt to ask anyways I suppose.

Next, I reformatted a few months back. I know texmod bugs up for people occasionally which causes the graphics to mess up and is usually fixed by just minimizing and then maximizing the screen. This rarely used to happen to me until my last reformat. Now I can't really even play the game with texmod without some kind of buggy graphics. I minimize the game to get rid of one really annoying buggy graphic to pull it up to another buggy graphic. Switching between performance and quality graphics does not seem to help. I have been assuming it's been my graphics card(perhaps not reinstalling a correct driver) but I recently uninstalled and reinstalled the graphics card drivers. I also have triple checked(and uninstalled/reinstalled) that I have Directx 9. Any insight on this would be appreciated.

Some specs:
Windows XP
4GB RAM(Not sure if that would matter, at all, for what I'm asking)
Nvidia GEForce 8400 GS

If any other information or questions are needed, feel free to ask.

Edit: I am running the Glazed Graphite mod + Carto -- I still run into this problem when running them seperately so I do not think that it's because of that.

1) no I'm fairly certain that's just the way those items were coded (either laziness...or going to long cause things to go buggy)

2)Lucky before I do believe.

Lucky is a sad way of looking at it

-- I can't use texmod without something bugging. Whether plants are turning into numbers or everything is changing colors. I very rarely get to play more than 3-4 minutes before something bugs. No one else I know has this problem this often. D:

Try setting your shadow quality to low in the graphics options. The frequency of TexMod bugs decreased dramatically when I did that.

I tried it specfically with shadow quality to low. I still have the same results -- Even with all of my graphics to the very minimum.

As far as the animations go, it's just a limitation of the client. Nothing that can be done to fix it.

For your texmod problem. try running the -repair switch to ensure your .dat file isn't slightly corrupted.

I added -repair to the end and it asked for a disc, I put it in and it did something for all of 5 seconds and said it finished. I assume that's what you wanted me to do, but it didn't work.

I decided to just play a little bit without texmod, and this is actually happening quite often without texmod too. So I suppose it's not just a texmod problem.

You wouldn't happen to be using a 9800GTX (or I think 8800) by chance would you?

Nvm, what I thought had fixed it for me got fuxxed up again cause as I was typing this I forgot to re setup my sli-setting

(which for refenerence is 2-way sli with 1 phys-x card the tri-sli gets messy with gw)
