And boom!

Was working on the game when I got some funky rectangles on the screen… restarted the PC… and it was dead!

So, after a bit of mucking around, I’m about 80% sure the problem was the video card… I can boot in safe mode, and I uninstalled the video card driver, which in turn allowed me to go back into normal mode… Then I tried installing the driver again, and it wouldn’t start again…

I have an old Radeon 5850 that I can use on it, that’s about as good as the nVidia 465 GTX I normally use for development, so I should be good to go tomorrow… :\

Anyway, sucks… Was working on more multithreading stuff… Was using the water material with alpha for the windows on the Skydancer, and because of that, it now flows like water!

Same goes for the engines, which use the lava material, but that one I want to play with a shader to get a better effect…

Now listening to “The Computer Starting Over and Over While Typing This on the iPad”
