Any news on what causes this?
Any permanent solutions?
I read somewhere that someone's custom assets folder could have been corrupted by other mods, like BUG and I did have Blue Marble installed.
I got so pissed off at having to alt-tab, reload the save, reload the mod and restart the whole Civ4 game for an hour to finally get a save where I could see the map.
I uninstalled everything Civ4 related and deleted all files that I couldn't uninstall, except for one save game file which I put in another folder during this process.
I reinstalled Civ4Gold and BTS, downloaded 3.19 patch and RI 3.25 only to see Black tiles on my first load attempt.
I really need a solution to this.
RI has been my favorite mod to date. It is just this Black Tile issue that makes it unbearable.
In case it is relavent, I am running Win7 home edition with DirectX 11.1 and a Geforce 650 video card with updated drivers from Nvidia.com.
My friend has the same setup as I do except he has a Radeon 6950 video card and has never had this problem.
As we conduct LAN games, we have to wait until I get a usable screen to start. This gets very frustrating.
Has anyone else experienced this with a Geforce card?
Could this be a nvidia driver issue?
With a fresh Civ4, BTS, 3.19 and RI install, I don't see how this could be a game issue yet.
I opened this is a separate post, so that others can search this in the future and hopefully find a solution here as well.
