Lighting problems , and the notes . - Random - 03-08-2008
I'm not sure what's the problem , but mainly it's graphical .
I tried tinkering with the graphic option but no matter what , I can see green lines and green squares from my glowing greeny stick .
I open my notes and can't recognize the words or background . Even my opening game has distored looking text .
I already updated to the latest patch .
I really need solution , I played Overture smoothly but BP is different .

Please provide a screen shot. You can take one ingame by using pressing F8 (screen end up in [install dir]/redist) or by using fraps.
Also:
What graphics card do you have?
What resolution are you playing at?
Have you installed the 1.01 patch?

Uninstall graphic cards drivers, restart computer, install drivers again.
This has helped some users.
