Strange Display Flicker/Distortion

[StormWeaver]

Have you tried the beta patch available?

It might also be some problem with settings for the graphics card or some kind of problem with you running a windows game on a mac (as I assume you are doing).

Also have you tried turning vsync on?

If the Beta patch is the 1.0.3 version on the download site then I believe so, it didnt change anything noticably. (I downloaded the patch labled Full Penumbra:overture)

As for my computer I'm running the game through windows 7 which I have on my Mac Book.

I did try the vsync, it didnt change anything. I will also mention that the distortion occures no matter which part of the game I'm in, it appears in the innitial screens when the text types out, the Frictional Games and Paradox logos and all the menues as well and gets far worse in game.

If it is a problem with the graphics settings is there anything I can try to mess with to see if I cant get it to work?
