Hammer whitens out not during compile Created 18 years ago2006-05-16 09:38:46 UTC by Elon Yariv

When I open the texture window(not aplication, I mean the one you choose the textures in it) and tick the only used textures box, hammer whiten out.
When it comes back again the scroller is gone.(the arrows at the side of the screen that you scroll the page with them, I'm not sure how to call them)

I checked for viruses, restarted the computer but it didn't work, hammer still whitens out. What can be the cause of this error.

Did you refreshed your filter in the texture selection? Dont know, I kinda forgot to do that so maybe you did too?

hmm. Sounds like you have a faulty b-281/2 component... Its pretty easy to fix, though, luckily. The instruction can be found on google, but i'll be really nice and find them for you.

You entered a question on a web form which is intended for user support questions.
A first-line technical support person called "Irene" (who, most likely, is not trained as a computer person; since 90% of all calls can be fixed by going with the customer through their connection and email settings, you can train anyone to be a first-line technical support person in one day, with most of the time spent in "How do I handle the phone" and "How do I handle the ticket tracking system") had a look at your request, saw that you had problems with sending email from remote systems, and copied a standard text about mail bounces in her reply to you. Remember that there are many people "out there" who think they know a lot about computers because they know how to start "regedit" and know a few buzzwords; the presence os such words in a support request is not necessarily a sign that there's some clue at the other end of the line.
You replied that no, this does not apply, and that yes, it's really a problem at your end, because lots of words Irene does not understand. She then decided you're totally out of her league, and redirected you to their second-line support; second-line supportlines do consist of people knowledgeable about computers, because at that point it's no longer a trivial problem. Since you happen to be an ISP, which is a company in her book, she referred you to the Business support line; such a Business support line usually consists of people even more knowledgeable about computers in general and the Internet specifically, because companies usually have rather specific needs that go a bit further than "I have an ADSL modem and a Windows box".And thats how you sort it

Errr... what was that all about?

I'm confused, that talked about first-line technical support and second-line...

What the hell are you talking about, Hunter? Sheesh!

@ Elon: What exeactly do you meen with "whiten out" White? Post a screenshot.

The screen becomes white. I'll post a screeni if you wish.

Edit:

I can't post a screeni! It doesn't happen any more from some unknown reason.

This happend to me long time ago too. It started whiting out but after a while it stopped. Any suggestions why?

What the hell are you talking about, Hunter? Sheesh!

Makes perfect sense...God some people.

Just follow the guide Hunter wrote and it'll be fine Elon.

Old videocard drivers? Don't know actually, could be anything. :/

If it makes so much sense, habboi, then explain it to me!

Sorry elon, i dont actually have a clue about your problem.. I felt like messing with ya

It would appear this site could use forum moderators.
