    My golem looks terrible [​IMG].

    That's the only distortion I see so far. I'm using ATI 10.6. Any idea what's causing it and how to fix it?

    Well I patched it and its still bad. I really hope I don't have to take it back after finally finding my good screen [​IMG]

    I messed up the screen shot, the double take was another picture under it so just ignore that part lol.

    I had a minor glitch too when using a no-cd patch. None when using a fully updated DVD install...

    It was different, and Iw asn't on 10.6. Maybe a different driver / version of the game?

    Hmmm, I play it on my HP TM2 with ATI 4550 and I'm using 10.5 with no issue. I wonder if I can try that driver instead. If you had the same glitch though I will assume its not the card :D

    Thankie!

    I'll have to check. I only copied it off my other computer to do a quick graphics test. As you see in the screen if you played it im at the end of the game. I didn't really play it. I'll have to see if I have a scene I can play with the golem in it and try it. :)

    Mostly importantly, grab a few smooches from Alistair. :D

    You didn't mention it was an "acquired" Dragon Age installation. Hrmf.

    Yeah I got that glitch too on my desktop, I just reverted to the save and did all my choices the same and fixed it before awakening.
