Sitara

Okay so I followed your instructions, and Ambient Occlusion was automatically off, so I didnt bother with changing that. So i Slid the graphics quality bar to "performance" and it reloaded the game, but now the enviorment is fine, but the character still wont show up. the only way i can get the character to show up is if I put it on the LOWEST GRAPHIC SETTING, and i know my video card can at least handle a little bit more that the lowest one. =_= I've played games like Aion and Skyrim on my computer without any major problems so I dont understand what the deal is :/

So i just found out that CoH went F2P a few days ago and I was SUPER excited because i used to play when it was released, then had to quit because school and work etc. anyways So i downloaded the client and ran it but i get this weird graphics error/glitch thing. Basically when I'm in character creation the character is displayed as ONE block of color, I made a character anyways and looked again INGAME, the character is STILL that one block.

heres a screenshot.

also here are my CoHHelper information (followed the sticky guide) and yes I know my graphics card is...out of date to say the least, dont laugh :X regardless I just updated my graphics card drivers a minute ago via the nvidia website. I dont know what I'm doing wrong. Please help!
