Here i took some screenshots and put them in animation:

Never happened before such bug.
This error appeared only in F5 mode, and it didnt appear always, i was able to reproduce it many times by just pressing F5, but in the end of game i couldnt reproduce anymore.
Mod: BA65

EDIT: REASON FOUND: THIS BUG APPEARS WHEN MINIMAP IS HIDDEN

That's rather odd...first of all, is your view radius set to a decently high number? (128 or greater) Determine whether or not it's that first.

i got the same bug now even when view radius was 30-100
+ i think thats not heightmap, i think its texture map...

No, its not texture map either.
heres newest screenshot:

It just shades the texture with black color, following the circle shapes in heightmap o_O
(That is not the water.)

I think it is a nvidia driver bug, we already had this with the napalm fx in CA. For some reason the nvidia drivers take the current glMultiTexCoord into account when using TexGen, I don't rememeber to read such a behaviour in the OGL extension specs, so it seems to be a bug.

Please tell me how did you fix it?
I tested again, with newer drivers, and i noticed it comes when i shoot:
I also noticed this map becomes much more laggier with newer drivers o_O
I even reached the 1 FPS, never before got that low FPS in my map...
Edit: no... new drivers vs old drivers are as slow :/ maybe i didnt test enough before...
*Installing even newer drivers now*
Edit: newest drivers gave me 4bit colors =D
I went back to first drivers... i fucking hate updating drivers >_<
Can someone suggest best drivers for MSI Geforce 8800GTS in WinXP SP1 ?

Oh, and this cant be a drivers problem, since i never before noticed this in older spring versions >_>
Unless spring rendering code was dramatically changed.. just wonder, why the fuck?

Now i found out its not just TAB, its because TAB minimizes the minimap, same bug happens when i just minimize minimap.
