Ok I deleted the file & launched the game. It looks like it rebuilds that file.
Anyways, it lasted a bit longer this time, but I'm still getting them:
Any other ideas?

What version of video drivers do you use? I know that your problem is not MP bug cause in TF2 I was have same problem. Drivers updating solve that problem.

Downgrading them can also solve the problem.
I didn't test with ManiaPlanet but some games are totally screwed with 320.18 on my computer so I'm still with 314.22.

I'm running the latest nVidia drivers 320.18
I don't mind trying downgrading...just need to know which version you think would work.
Thanks again!

So, as said The_Big_Boo, try to downgrade to 314.22. Maybe it help. So, I use 314.22 too.

Those were the prior drivers to 320.18 correct? If so, that is the version I was on before upgrading to 320.18. I know the problem existed before my upgrade to 320.18. I'm pretty sure I was on 314.22 before upgrading to the latest version.
Do you think an older version like 314.07 would help? Or perhaps older? I have 310.90 & 310.70 versions as well as 301.42. I even have 280.26 version as well.
What do you think?

that it is not only related to the video drivers, but to something else on your system.
Are the drivers for the motherboard up to date?
Do not overclock your memory (check BIOS settings).

OK I just did a BIOS update on my motherboard. I have an ASUS Z77 Sabertooth motherboard & updated to the latest BIOS version. Tried it again with no luck. The crap was still there.
I then uninstalled my video drivers and installed older drivers (310.70). I could not go back to prior driver versions as they were incompatible with my video card. I fired up ShootMania again & the polygons are still there. They do not seem to be as bad as they were, but they are still there:
Any other ideas?

Maybe this will help. The post is pretty old, but maybe there's some useful information.
You never know...
