Update on texture poppin & redraw question | Forums

[rlmergeuser]

Im slowly accepting that a lot of the problems that i have with the game are attributed to the xbox`s hardware itself & that the games programming is off this world.... a pandora`s box .... too powerful for my xbox to handle!(even tho it doesnt happen in any of my other games...grumble...cough, cough )

The texture popping problem, well i moved my xbox so its pretty much next to my open window (it aint warm in SE London atm), i get the problem happen "once" everytime i load the game up and thats pretty much it, so im assuming the xbox is just getting its Evo power juice boost ... it shocks it n then stablizes once the xbox fan is made to work its *** off

The re-draw problem, i think ive come up with a sensible reason ... my xbox cant handle the game trying to run at 60fps all the time and naturally game/data lagg will kick in, thus effecting the real time fps the xbox can actually handle moving it around from 58,59,60fps which results in the horizontal line of redraw? lol is that possible, im just guessing

i really don't know mate. but i don't get the same problems you do with texture popping and redrawing.

i have a first gen cream xbox. has been repaired once after a 3 red light fiasco and i also took it apart and cleaned the inside of it just before Evo came out as it was getting 2 red lights all the time.

none of that may have any bearing at all on it but i don't know...

I am pretty sure everyone gets it to some degree, its likely some don't notice it. It doesn't happen all the time, sometimes for me its terrible, other times its not even a fraction of a second. It doesn't bother me, what bothers me is the slow-down/pausing that sometimes occurs, its killed a few good runs for me. I cant wait for trials gold on pc because these issues will be a thing of the past on my pc.

yeah maybe i do get it and don't notice it. i remember everyone was moaning about the Inferno 3 smoke when you can't see your rider. i'd never noticed it until it was pointed out. i'm so concentrated on my rider that maybe i just don't notice these things. everything seems fine to me!

but the slow down thing that you mention which annoyingly occurs a few times on Test Your Might REALLY needs fixing cos it's potentially a 0-fault breaker on the hardest tournament in the game.
