Graphics Problems

Hello,
I have just downloaded the SDK, and built it to get the file TorqueDemo_DEBUG. When I run it, im gettin weird images on screen. It runs fine in some places of the map, but in others the whole display might get covered over, or object will just appear out of no where, or display completely incorrectly. Im using an ATI radeon 7200 64 mb.
Any ideas?
Thanks

There's something weird and hosed with some Radeons and Torque. The problem has come up a few other times; I think that if you search the forums a bit you'll be able to find other people's experiences.

The only anomoly I noticed with my Radeon 9500 Pro was that I couldn't see anything, anywhere (menus, game, etc.) except for the little square under the mouse. Turning off either Anti-Aliasing or Anistropic Filtering through the Windows Settings solved that for me. I *think* I've been able to turn those back on with the newest version of HEAD (1.2, as of Oct 28 or so) and the latest Catalyst drivers (3.8 maybe?), but I can't say for sure (not at that machine right now). I seem to recall doing some performance tests with those options cranked up and getting good results.

Also, have you tried running the TorqueDemo straight from the download on the main Garage Games site? I'd try that to rule out any issues with how you've compiled the demo.
