Somethign is wrong wit this. I updated my Graphics thing from ATI.com.
I tested this wit the grafix in the game, set everything on high, low. Still the samething.

Think it's the monitor?

I got a ViewSonic UltraBrite A90f+

Help?

I haven't looked at those screenshots, but make sure your drivers are up to date.

It's not your monitor, the problem lies most likely in one of these things:

1. Videocard drivers (while uptodate, may be somehow bad or incompatible with the game)
2. Game code (conflicts can happen here, if the game does not have good support for your videocard family)
3. DirectX (make sure you have the latest version, you can get this at http://www.windowsupdate.com)

Looks like z-fighting to me.
Check if there's a way to increase the size of the games depth buffer.

@Stealth: I'll check the directx wheen I get home, I think I got 9.

@SupremeYetiCommander[yL]: How might I be able to do that?

EDIT: How do I check my current Directx version?

DirectX 9.0b is the latest version of DX.

I've had your problem when I used to play Halo online. I had to get the Catlyste 9 or something. It fucked my graphics up but then some of the features in the game would work such as scoping. Try getting rid of your update then?

That happened to me when I had a shitty video card, it's possible that you purchased a piece of crap card. Also, Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, isn't the best game (graphics wise).

any ati card is going to support dx9 better then its nvidea at the same level, ati has been ahead of nvidea on that front (though nvidea is starting to make its move to dx9), so dx9 support really should not be an issue. But the thing is dx9 is not even fully utilized so even if you were running, oh lets say a fx5200, a fairly common nvidea card (well it is not going to be alright with this card, 5200 sucks... but its just the most common middle of the road nvidea card out there), it should still be alright. What kind of card are you running exactly, radion what? How much ram? I have found with my experience with both nvidea and ati cards that nvidea cards while they lack in support of the not fully utilized dx9, they render more smoothly, and often look a little better. So if you want just pure performance ati will probably be better, but nvidea tends to look a little prettier. Again that is just a personal opinion of mine from my experience with both companies. I am a lan gamer so I have seen high end cards from both companies on a lot of titles. I would not complaign too much about some 'triangles' in mohaas if your game is not giving you fog and it is not getting choppy, you should be able to game effectivly.


edit: part of the problem is your settings for mohaas are probably all screwed up. Make sure the game res and the res you normally run are the same, and basically just trial and error the rest of the stuff until you get the performance and quality you want.

Yea, but the new R420's still pwn the hell out of the new NV40 cards in DX9 games. :)

well the 6800 has the best dx9 support to date for an nvidea card (which yea, ati has better support still), and has great poerformance. But ati whipped out a brute, x800, those 16 pipes will rape anything.... The reason x800 is better then 6800 is because of those pipes, not because of dx9 support, well not because of dx9 alone, because both have it covered fairly well.
