I haven't been contacted by Alec yet (maybe my time zone is bad compared to his... :( )

Well, at the moment is the Game Developers Conference where Derek and Alec are, I think they had a lot to do in the days before too. Just be patient. :)

And don't worry about the timezone, Alec stopped sleeping a while ago. ;)

Well Alec has been putting work into making the game widescreen and adressing various people's problems on the boards here.  You'll notice he did attempt to fix the problem.  But it's hard to fix something when you don't know what's wrong.  And it's like Alec said, he doesn't exactly have the problem handy for troubleshooting purposes.  Would somebody like to volunteer to be his guinea pig?  I would do it but the computer in question is at my parent's house and I'm hundreds of miles away.

This...game...ROCKS!

Hey guys
Initially on loading the game I experienced graphical distortions much like the screenshot posted earlier.  I found uninstalling the video driver running driver cleaner in safe mode and reinstalling the driver fixed the problem.  Just a suggestion for anyone experiencing something similar.

As I posted in the third page, I wouldn't mind helping him to find this bug. I have a computer where I can reproduce it and where his intial fix helped solving the problem ;)

I suffered from the same thing as SunBeam and it was driving me crazy, so I read his post and saw that he was using the NVTray tool.
So I downloaded it and ran the game and to my suprise it worked, so if your screen looks like this

and you have a geforce card I suggest getting the NVTray tool from http://nvtweak.laptopvideo2go.com/

I'm using a Geforce 7900GS

Out of curosity did this ever get fixed.

I recently bought Audiosurf and now that i've gotten kinda sick of it i wanted to see if the game would work for me.

Remember i got the problem on the demo though so i dunno if that means I'll get the problem in the full game.

I've actually changed something in the latest version (1.1.0, which isn't out yet) that might fix some graphical problems that people have been having.

We probably won't be releasing a 1.1.0 demo for a bit - we'll want to do a Windows beta test first, after the Mac one is done.
