waarschijnlijk iets met je videokaart, probeer een oudere driver te installeren (als je m pas geleden geupdate hebt toevallig)
ik had nog wel eens met een mapswitch dat ik een zwart scherm zomaar kreeg na een tijdje, bij mij lag het idd aan een videkaartupdate
type in console /cg_showhud 1
then it should work.
If it happens when tryng to connect some modified pub servers then turn download on.
have had similar problems once, i think it was the refresh rate.
could also be driver related
Oh you,Im currently downloading CoD 2,since my CD were gone,but I got key.
I have never had this kind thing like you have.Since Im not into IW engine,which is based on Q3 engine,but theres a lot diffrence between Q3 and IW engine,so cant help you.
if i remember rightly it's a problem caused by windows vista (and possibly windows 7) and running the game in directx 9, you can switch the directx down to directx 7 or something in the options and it should work properly
which options do you mean? Ingame options or @ the Activision map(program files) ?
Parent
in-game options, im guessing you can see the game menus fine, just not once you connect to a server right?
Parent
yep, but I cant find anything related to directx at ingame options;s. I've checked graphics but nothing there
Parent
should be options & video, perhaps advanced if there's a button for it. if not maybe you need to be connected to a server for it though im not sure, if not try googling for config commands for it
Parent
hmm, I already checked everything in options but nothing about directx in there. gonna try and google it now. thanks anyway!
Parent
ok so you dont need to be on a server, just open COD2_mp.exe or whatever it's called, go to options, click graphics and it's on the left under "Rendering Method Preference" in english at least
