[0.951+0.952] Anti Aliasing busted.

  It works for me.  Is it possible your video card doesn't support anti-aliasing?  Is anyone else seeing this?

Brand new HD 7850, AA works with my other games.  I am running the new 12.8 drivers, I did try the 12.4 set just in case but got the same result.

Could you provide some more specifics.  What are you setting it to when you see the issue (Anti-Aliasing 2x)?  What are you setting it to when you don't see the issue (Anti-Aliasing Off).  And screenshots of the before and after.  Getting a copy of your debug.err would be handy too.

For anyone else reading, let us know fi you are running into this.

Sorry Mr Derek, but even though I had NOTHING forced from my CCC, I set it to factory defaults anyway. I also unticked 'enable surface format optimization'

I then set my AA to full in my game and it worked.  It would seem that a innocent CCC setting can bugger up the AA in FE, handy for those coming across such in the future.  Now it's just a case of discovering which setting it was that caused the problem.

That sounds very similar to what I'm seeing under linux with wine. For me, too, the map is just white and pictures of self created sovereigns are just black.

Try what I have just done, if you can access CCC that is.  

Damit!  Just got my AA working and now I get a FE has stopped working error.  Something's were not meant to be.

I am running Anti Aliasing X2 and have no problems

Edit: And I should learn patience and read through before posting

Excuse me.  I had been searching for a solution to my problem for two days before I posted here.

Edit: Sorry, I should read thing properly before responding with vinegar.   

Lets make a fight out of it!

  Thanks for the update Tattyhat, if you find the particular CCC option that killed you please let me know (feel free to PM it to me).

Okies, by trail and error I found the culprit.

AMD HD7850 card Catalyst 12.x drivers.

Even though anti aliasing may be turned off in your CCC if the anti-aliasing MODE in your CCC is set to 'Adaptive Multi-sample' then you suffer white screen.

Thanks for finding out. I have an nvidia card and have tried to change several options without luck. Might be a problem due to wine and linux.

Is there any chance to get an cloth map for tactical battle?

Very interesting: I casted a Shockwave spell (earth tier 3) in a tactical battle and for 2 seconds the all white screen dissapeared and I could see the tactical battle screen.

Edit: corrected the Spell.

Confirmed here on a 7850, Adaptive Multi-sample is a no go.

Just a question: Is this issue being addressed in beta 5?

I'm still having the issue with the white map and haven't been able to solve it (tried all possible anti aliasing options).

^This would not only ensure playability in Linux but also on older systems in general.  If a machine's specs aren't up to par the cloth maps could be forced, drastically increasing the game's demographic (especially when multiplayer is implemented)!
