Hi. I'm getting tearing in my model in-game. I'm guessing its my client, because everyone I look at in-game has the same problem. Instead of explaining this, heres a picture. This picture isnt even that bad. its worse when im flying, because then the legs get detached. I have an amd xp1600 running windows 2k sp4, a geforce 2 pro 64mb with 44.03 drivers, directx 9.0a 256mb drr ram pc2700 cas 2.5, a gigabtye ga7vaxp kt400 mobo with via hyperion v4.45 drivers. I'm running no fsaa, no ansitropic filtering, everything default. Windows was just installed about 2 weeks ago. Every other game I've ever played on this computer in the last 2 weeks has been perfect. Plz help. Thx in advance.

Actually, Carey you might get a better response if you posted this in the "I can't find the right forum" section.
Just playin' You found it. Welcome to SL and hope to meet you in game. Good luck with the card too.

Or you can just live with it until tomorrow when they release version 1.0.3, which works with the latest drivers for the GeForce 2 & 4MX.

Yes, tommorows update will fix the problem you have. You could downgrade your drivers if you really want it fixed tonight, but, you don't need to, since, it will be fixed in the morning.

The announcements forum, thread titled: Update to 1.0.3, down 6-8 AM PST Tuesday

the message actually lists bug fixes implemented in the release.

I had this problem too. Stick with 41.09, hopefully it'll be fixed with the next release.
