HALO CE Graphics bugs

[Guzzie]

Howdy folks,

Hopefully someone here can help me out. Used to play this game all the time and I recently built a new PC. I did the search and stuff and couldn't find any related threads.

Installed Halo CE and patched all the way up to the current version.

Of course I popped online right away and went into BG to go kill some nubs and I noticed that I'm getting some strange polygon draws that end up blocking my FOV and making the game unplayable. Im running it on Windows 10 with an i7 - 6700k on integrated graphics (planning on getting a discrete card soon...)

Here's some screenshots. Any thoughts on why its happening or how to fix it?

I haven't seen stuff like that since my radeon 9600 was dieing. If I had to guess it's probably the fact you're using integrated graphics on a 15 year old game.

LOL!

The integrated graphics of today have no problem playing Halo on its highest settings.

My guess is that the problem that you're using Windows 10. It's a shit OS and has driver issues that rival that of even Vista.

The Intel driver pushed out by Microsoft is outdated and buggy. And unfortunately Microsoft doesn't let you upgrade display drivers in Windows 10 to the official Intel drivers on their website. nVidia has the same issues causing blue screens.

Question though: If you are using Windows 10, then why do your screenshots have the Windows 7 basic theme on the title bar?

I've only ever seen that with an overheating card.

I was trying to run in compatibility mode to see if that made any difference. Also tried forcing older shaders and disabling some stuff in the menu and that didn't work.

Sounds like I'm just hosed until I get my discrete card or i downgrade.

Thanks for the inputs.

So cool story -- I installed Opensauce and it seems to have fixed the graphics issue.

If anyone else has issues I suggest trying that out.

i think your power supply might be dying, you need to replace your ram with the new geforce skylake i7

[supersniper]

or install Halo 2 for Windows Vista, it has a self repair option within the game that helps find the issues in all graphics cards.
