Graphics Card becomes Crazy with ShootMania

[TMarc]

This is great news
Do you remember by chance what those files were named exactly, or did you just clean the cache of ManiaPlanet?

[Darkminus]

I cleaned the whole cache. There was probably a corrupted file in it..

Thanks for trying to help me!

I hope I won't get that problem again...

[TMarc]

Ok

Well, if you have a crash of the game (for probably another reason now) it still might corrupt a file which is being downloaded.
A crashlog would be very helpful to find the issue, as the game should be able to start properly even with faulty files in the cache.

I remember there was once a bug with team logos during the beta-tests.
Perhaps you were running on a server that has a beta version (many have B2 or B3 versions still, but that's another history).

At least you know now what to do

As long as it works, enjoy

Aaaaaaaaaand we get back to the initial state. I booted my computer today, same crashes...

Raaah....

Strange thing, this time, there was a blue retangle in maniaplanet just near my cursor, and it was written "Driver ATI crashed" or something like that, didn't have time to take a screenshot, very strange.

I'm going to format anyway, we'll see if this solves the problem.

[TMarc]

Good luck then

[Darkminus]

After formatting, my driver is still crashing (nothing installed, just Windows). I really don't understand. So ManiaPlanet seemed to be a coincidence. My card is probably dead then..

[TMarc]

yeah, looks like

You could check the contacts, and also the fan, if there is not too much dust.

But it is strange somehow ManiaPlanet has "caused" it

[Darkminus]

I don't think it had caused this. I play ShootMania a lot. I nearly play this game only.
So I think it's just a coincidence it happened first on ManiaPlanet.
I think the solution now is to change some hardware ^^.
Checked contact and fan before posting here

This is end ....

it's good you can still smile
