Greetings;

A friend of mine installed and configured the mod today and as we embarked on our first test to see if he hadn't made any big mistakes with Doctrine setup and whatnot, we booted up a 1v1 game.
As soon as it was loaded, he complained about graphical glitches and very poor performance. More to the point, his whole toolbar was white and even Text et. al. were barely readable.
Granted, he does not sport a powerful PC, so we didn't expect much, but he could at least run the regular CoH on low Settings at acceptable performance, so it was very odd to see an extremely poor performance.


This is a screenshot from his display.

That seems peculiarly like a graphics card overheat.

This is classic graphic artifacting caused by hardware bugs - restart the pc and make sure that the graphics card temps are within a normal range before running the game again.

If it persists there may be a software problem.

We are serious about enforcing this, and I am sure you all want to be able to have your balance thought considered by the development team with some biased, sensationalist coming into your thread and ruining it.

Regular CoH runs perfect. No issues there.

Could it have something to do with him having the Steam Version?

well EIR is just a bit tougher for your machine, i think coz the launcher communicates with the game all the time.

I have the steam version aswell, that's not the problem, could you try replacing the graphics card, borrowing one from a friend or something?

I'm afraid it's still an AGP card and I can't think of anyone he knows who could give him one...

Can it be confirmed that it's just because EiR is so much tougher on your Machine? Because that might be the reason, then. If vCoH runs it at the limits, EiR might just be that little bit too much.
