this may need to be in a player help section, but since its tech related and not gameplay related, ill try here.

so this may be pointless, but i have a Toshiba Satellite A305-S6905. the manufacturer doesnt seem to have ever issued any updated display drivers for this model, and since GR dropped, i have been unable to play the game on this laptop. i can log in and all, but the characters are ghost frameworks.

my question is, what problems could i run into if i decided to try the generic Intel drivers for the chipset? anyone got suggestions on something else to try?

***i know this isnt a gaming laptop, but it used to run the game and i would like to be able to play again***

i have at least one character that did not get the holiday powers this year. the only thing i can think is that he still had an unused debt protection temp power from last holiday event...

well, with no adjustments on my part, this issue has seemed to clear itself up. i am no longer having the neon FX, but i have no idea what caused them to show up or how to make them go away.

****THIS JUST IN*****

so i guess whatever was making my gfx work properly again went on vacation or something...im back to having neon special FX and such...

oh well


sorry i cant assist forest

sorry, yes, the 7.7s

i was able to fix the pointer issue thanks to some help from another poster

X1650 Series and i got suckered into vista (yeah, ive also had to have my pointers disappear on me)

i have the settings you posted at the start. what im getting now is mostly effecting the power effects and things like ambient fires in the zones.

the colors are way off and really neon looking.

Red Mist the red mist is the effect from simply having sprint turned on

Base Portal

any suggestions yet on the 7.7 drivers?

Gaul's is "STOP IN THE NAME OF THE WATCH!" not too original i know, but he is the founder of the Nights Watch on pinnacle.

his sister, Eryn, has spent less time in Paragon and still has more of her highland accent, hers is "Ye'll burn, roight enuf!"

Silk Shadow - "You never saw me coming" mostly used after the fight is over.

My main, Gaul MacFion, is busy full time running the Nights Watch, so he doesnt get out much. the time he has off from there he is looking out for his younger sister Eryn. she is also new to the city but crashes at the Watchhouse. the both use the stipened for being heros plus the bounties for the criminals they bring in to support themselves and the Watch.

OVCP-002 is a program written within the server itself, not an actual hero in the game, but rather a part of the game. no need for income.

Charged Ion works for the American Meterological Society studying the effects of super powers on the worlds climate, especially in areas of high concentration (hence asignment in Paragon). they dont know that he is a superhero.

havent thought of backstory for Silk Shadow, but it has something to do with her grandfathers katana
