Title: Black Panther Is Blue...
Post by: Ada on February 19, 2006, 01:52:13 PM: I have an error, All my black panthers turn up metallic blue, how to fix it? Is there a patch or something?

I recall that someone on this board had a similar problem, but it was way in the times when I didn't have ZT2 so I didn't pay attention to that thread. Can someone help me or post a link to that thread if there was an answer there?

If they're chrome-like, then the topic is here. (http://zoo.ogresnet.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=7059&hl=chrome)

Also my graphic card is a Radeon 9200, hope this will help. Also, this occured before I had any custom made downloads.
This doesn't happen to any other animal, just the Blue Fang's Black Panther.

Changed picture to link to prevent page scrolling.

I never noticed anyone getting this problem before ES, I wonder if it's a compatibility problem?

Post by: Bengal on February 20, 2006, 01:56:09 PM: This is a problem with the graphics being set on low as previously said; if you change your graphics to a higher setting then it should fix the metallic blue problem.

Post by: Ada on February 21, 2006, 02:18:24 AM: Ok, I played with the settings a lot and I seemed to have solved the problem.
I'm not sure how I did iut though, all my settings are now on Medium to High, the only ones are left low are:
- Anti Aliasing
- Font shadowing

So it probably has something to do with this.

P.S
What setting one has to have to see different skin variations of animals?

Post by: csleesburg on February 21, 2006, 08:24:04 AM: Has to be on High for most things for variants, sorry to tell you. Some can be Medium, but most have to be High. :sad
