New Lightining System FAIL
« on: January 09, 2011, 11:32:26 AM »
This feature doesn't work on my computer - all planets are invisible, I have Gforce 4 graphic card with no Pixel and Vertex Shader, and I must turn off this New Lightining System to see planets, and dust is only monochrome
Processor AMD 1,6 GHz amd 1 Gb Memory

Your GeForce 4 video card only support DirectX 8:

... but the new lighting system requires DirectX 9.

This is also why the dust is monochrome. I'm sorry I can't be of more help.

You can use Ctrl+L to toggle the light system.
