Please make sure you have the newest video drivers installed,
e.g. http://www.nvidia.com/object/notebook-w ... river.html is showung a newer version than in the screenshot above.

I know not all notebooks can use the generic drivers, but it is worth a try.

Latest drivers (314.07) dont help, what about reduction limit to lower number of MB or disable this useless control ?

I have think about that too, so I tried the latest nvidia-driver and also the acer-driver from the acer hompage, but it the problem is everytime there.

Sorry, I can't help anymore, since I don't have such a laptop myself. Someone else has perhaps the answer :oops:

@Honzuna
I don't think so.
1. I hope nadeo will reconize this bug and fix it
2. Is Canyon and the new stadium better than TMU
3. The graphic is also with the bug good. But you can't use the full performance

If I would have the chance again to buy the game, i would buy it with knowing from the bug too

Please always think of adding the ManiaPlanetLauncher.exe as well to the list of 3D applications, not only ManiaPlanet.exe :!:

I have an netbook with Nvidia Optimus Technology.

I only have an workaround.

Start and choose in the optimus technology application : "only gt 650m"

Now the internal graphics will be disabled and after a restart of the laptop you can start Maniaplanet normally.

Sincerely,

Maximilian

This is the hint many were waiting for :thumbsup: thanks a lot! :thx:

Except more heat, more noise and more power consumption, did you observe other issues,
or is everything else fine as usual?
