Hello,
I'm having a problem with galactic civilization 2 on my laptop (acer aspire 3634wlmi - about 2 hours old!
)
The game, windows and video drivers are updated to the latest version available.
The game loads correctly, without errors, i can see ship textures just in the early page when i'm creating a new game, then nothing; not in the succesive pages, not in the game.
Of course, disable ship texture is NOT active.
edit: i'm also having many graphical glitches ingame.
below, my debug.err
Thanks in advance to everyone who would reply.
