Weird screen problem [Solved]
« on: January 16, 2011, 03:08:20 pm »
Hello,

I can't find any other topics on this, but basically when I start tremulous, part of the screen still shows my background and the other part shows tremulous.  If you can imagine running tremulous, and the top half of the computer screen shows your desktop, then the other half plays tremulous, that is what is happening to me.

It started happening when I had the mercenariesguild.net client executable, except the game would go gray after starting it.  Then I tried tremfusions client executable and the game starts, but I still get the split screen, part desktop part tremulous.  The desktop portion flashes constantly and the game below it runs fine.  Any help would be really appreciated. I tried taking a screen shot but it doesn't show the top of my screen being desktop, it only shows the normal bottom half of my screen that is playing tremulous.

TL:DR My screen is split between showing tremulous and showing my desktop when I run it, it just randomly did this the other day and hasn't reverted back.

Edit: Condump as well

in the console run:
Code: [Select]
/r_mode 6
/r_width 1024
/r_height 768
/r_fullscreen 1
/vid_restart
and see what happens.
