Hey...I just came back to C.O.R.E after playing Victoria(V.I.P) for a while, and now there's some weird glitch in the game. There are like....black lines over the tooltips that pop up and like...game messages(see the picture below).

Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Makes playing the game near impossible.
 
I don't suppose you have Alt+Tabbed out at any point? Particularly when the game was loading - or had Bink crash. That happens to me in Vicky and HOI when I Alt+Tab out during the loading screen.
 
I've occasionally had blurred grey lines appearing all over the screen, obscuring much of it. I eventually discovered that they were due to a dirty game CD. As soon as I cleaned the CD, the grey lines disappeared.

Hi, I can confirm this. Such strange graphics happen almost everytime I change applications while the game is loading ...
 
Patient: "Doctor, it hurts when I do this."

Doctor: "Then don't do that anymore."

My point. Maybe you should let the game load completely before flipping back and forth between other applications. Patience is a virtue. ;)

Besides, I have never seen the same type of graphical error you depict.
 
Ahhh well bloody hell....

My computer/internet/video games have been all acting like jackasses....they must get it from me :rolleyes:

Anyways...For HoI2...it, for some unknown reason....would just auto-minimize for some reason...I don't think I even had time to hit escape, during the loading screen it just auto-minimizes....so from the solution of one problem we come to another -_-

Have you tries renaming the AVI folder?
It might be Bink Vodeo acting up.

Thanks for the response...I'll have to check it tomorrow though as it's 7:30am right now...and I haven't slept yet.
