Spring RTS Engine

When playing this map:

this happens:

Happens every time.
Metalmap and Heightmap look ingame (but the blurred letters are still there.)
Couldn't connect to the host so no idea what units look like.

I've never had this problem and usually I can play just fine so its probally the map.
Windows XP
Leadtek 6800
1024x768

I can test more settings if you want, but for now I've to go sleeping.

What map is that? Is it in the new map format? aka sm3?

Mapname is "Kill Or Be Killed", click on the link.
Filename is Killorbekilled.sd7, I guess the new format is .sm3 or something?
Anyway, the new mapformat worked good on my computer, at least with the test version.

No, this map is the old smt format. Not sm3. Besides, the sm3 map shaders were not included with the 73b1 release, so unless you had "Don't use shaders" checked in the settings, it would crash on load.

Looks fine to me. My guess would be simple graphics glitch. I have had it happen once or twice. Generally a restart fixes it.

restart didnt help..
I just tried 8x8 maps (thought it might be the size or something) but all worked, including my own map..
well, strange shit!

lets all blame hrmph and then forget it ever happened
