I just came back from a long break from discovery and I seem to have gotten a unique issue.
For some reason the health and shield bars on other players or NPC's seems to be broken. This also applies to shipwrecks, but not base turrets for some reason.
The health and shield bars are both blacked as if they are empty, but it almost looks like a second bar is being displayed over the normal one.
I have attached a picture below to show the issue.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the base freelancer game along with re-updating the launcher but that hasn't worked.
Naturally I decided that my time would be best spent whining on the forum.
Anyone have any ideas on what could cause or fix this?
I have again tried uninstalling freelancer and discovery. I updated freelancer to patch 1.1 and installed discovery from a fresh download (not the torrent). So far nothing new.
The only issues left that I can think of might be
- I got that "No detected video card" on my first install, hasn't come back since though.
- Direct X supposedly wasn't detected with the base game but is no longer an issue with discovery.
I have tried installing with and without bloom so I don't think that is it.
Since this only seems to happen to ships that have shields on them I am starting to think that the shield UI might be broken. No clue how to fix it though
On the bright side, If I can't fix this I can atleast make an RP out of it
