my crappy shadows.. cant help it

[GMEM]

hi , I have very ugly shadows and cant help it...
-this ugly shadow is not with objects, it is with infantry, cars, tanks, heli's and planes
-I have one of the highest NVDIA graphix card with a very fast windows XP
-I have the ugly shadows with low, medium and even the highest settings (always)
-I tried to reinstall the game which didn't help
-strange : I played the sandbox mod and went far out of the map in Fushe pass and saw that my SHADOWS were okay again!!
the next game I played the shadows were screwed up again

an example of my shadows :


you can see these shadows now in the surreal mod on this pic ... but they are everywhere.. every mod .. vanilla, SF, EF and AF

I hope anyone can tell me a way to help it and if anyone had the same ..
I really want to know this .. cause it really makes me crazy everytime I see it..

That will not work. Remember this mlkmnz? "He doesnt know what hes talking about" lol :laugh: .

Anyway BF2 has crappy shadows there is no getting away from it, its just the game engine. I play BF2 maxed out 4xAA and still have crappy shadows .

It was a suggestion. I wasnt trying to make my penis look bigger than his based on the "l33tness" of my system.

If he's saying its ok initially, then reverting to being bad again, it leads me to think his system or config sets itself up wrong.

But my cheapo medium level system doesnt have that issue....

Re: my crappy shadows.. cant help it

What driver are you using? If you dont know, it may be worth installing the latest drivers. They are the 91.30 release. link below
