Nvidia 40.41 gf3 and CS

[ProPatria]

Hey,

I have a bit problem to run Counter-Strike with a GF3 card useing Nvidia 40.41 drivers. The sky in Counter-Strike "melts" together with the walls and buildings and it looks real weird. 3dmark and some other games works fine tho. I run Windows Xp, does anyone els have this problem or know if there is a fix or anything to Counter-Strike ?

Thanx.

i use a geforce 3 and my cs is fine u might wanna just install the older ones

 

[funnyperson1]

there are a couple threads explaining the overall crappiness of the 40.41 drivers, try some older ones

I have this problem too...never tried fixing, I rolled back to 29,42.

I had the same thing...It runs better in OpenGL.

yep ProPatria
i just gain with that driver more than 800 point on 3Dmark

I got the same thing, wc3, bw, 3dmark all work fine but only cs doesnt work with the new nvidia driver. I had to uninstall the 40.41 and then install the old driver. Im guessing that why the 40.41 is still beta

some how there gaining the pionts by redusing qualitly even games that do work dont look as good.

yea these 40.41 drivers are only good for 3dmark they suck graphics wise in games

go into your config and change make sure your setting is right for the smoke bombs it should be

fastsprites "0"

If its set to any number between 1 and 3 you'll see nothing but white layers instead of smoke.
