Red blocks after patch 1.03

Post by Ningengirai »

Just patched to 1.03. The game does run a lot smoother now, and if I'm not mistaken, the size of the saved games has been reduced, too.

However, I'm now encountering strange red blocks in certain areas. I fudged around with the graphic settings, set them to low, set them to high, disabled everything, enabled everything. De-patched, uninstalled, re-installed, re-patched.

Does anyone know what this block is? It looks like it's blocking areas I can't go into before I've talked to someone, and it's just annoying. (see attached image )

Ok so it only happens when you patch to 1.03, if I understand.
What video card are you using, ATI or Nividia?
Next can you go to other maps and if so does it happen anywhere else or only that one spot?
If only there is could be just a glitch they missed in the patch, I am guessing.
How about it you alt-tab out of the game and then back in, does that fix it?
Trust me, most of the names I have been called you can't translate in any language...they're not even real words as much as a succession of violent images.

It looks like the kind of thing you would get if a graphics file were corrupted and a texture can't be read properly.

No idea. It was just in the tutorial and the thing was only visible in the Brawl, and only while I was dealing with that part of the Harvest Cup. Maybe it's a tutorial thing, since I haven't run into it since and I'm well into Act II now. Thanks anyway!
