Oh God!

THa't abosoltuely horrible. Except for second pic.

Something wrong with your drivers or maybe the way Anniversary was loaded.

As I can understand, the textures have been loaded with a very dark/intense thick lines. Resulting in that.

The smoke also made so intense now being no longer transparent.

Well I dunno how to help you, but you can try that link they gave you and I think a reinstall???

Shaunof, what version of DirectX are you using? (DirectX 9.0c?)
Click on Start and then Run and then type in dxdiag for your DirectX info.

(And of course, updating your card's display drivers will probably be THE answer. That is when-ever they get around to matching TRA's specs.)

And it looks like you have the latest drivers?

hi, thanks upstairs, i'v solved the display problem.
just change the display card driver to the lastest one:vista32-64_8-43-1-1-071113a-055589E. and all the matters will leave.
and if anyone meet the same questions, especially with ATI display card, change the display driver is the most useful way to get over your trouble.
