christhemad:
hey i found this for my droid anyway it dont work on there so i downloaded it for my computer as i love xcom type games. well i installed it fine and played it the menu comes up fine and ingame the hud comes up fine but theres no world map or anything and when i click on the create base the base shows up fine were you can build and all. i also tryed the sirmish mission and it does the same thing hud shows up fine but the map is just black. i just downloaded it today using the top files for downloading for windows so they should be the newest i would think. anyway im on windows xp pro sp 3 with 2.0 gig single core 1 gig ram 290 gig hard drives total and an ati 9600 all in wounder pro video card. given that i can play c&c4 on here i dont think video card is the problem. so any help would be great

H-Hour:
Welcome to the forums. Check this page for instructions on where to find your ufoconsole.log and attach it here.

Sandro:
Try to disable shaders -- 9600 is an old card and is very likely to have problems with the GPU features we are using.

christhemad:
is that ingame or how do i do the shader im checking the link there to find that info and will post it in just a few mins when i find it

christhemad:
ok here it is i guess im going to have to attach the file as it is over the 20k letter limit

edit i also just tryed starting the game and a window pops up and give me this now
