runing.man · 6 May 2009 at 21:55

Hey i just installed grid and when i go to play it will load to the grid logo and the first like intro then after that the screen just goes black and i cant do anything, if i run it in the safe mode i can change the res to 1440 x 900 and it will play fine but if i go to put it in 1920 x 1200 the screen just goes black.

Any one know how to fix this ?

Many Thanks.

Open up a certain file using dreamweaver, or a similar program. Change the AA settings to 0.

I beleive its:
Documents | Codemaster | grid | harwaresettings | open up Hardware_settings_info.xml using dreamweaver | find the following :
<mode name="2xmsaa" />
<mode name="4xmsaa" />
<mode name="8xmsaa" />

change to :
<mode name="0xmsaa" />
<mode name="0xmsaa" />
<mode name="0xmsaa" />

i think thats what i did.

If not, try
Documents | Codemaster | grid | harwaresettings | open up Hardware_settings_config.xml using dreamweaver | find the following :

<multisampling option="0">
<back_buffer level="0" />
<colour_target level="0" />
<minimap level="0" />
<dynamic_envmap level="0" />
<static_envmap level="0" />
<rear_view_mirror level="0" />
</multisampling>

make sure they are set to 0, then if that works, try tweaking until you find the best settings for your system.
