edit: SOLVED

The problem was that my machine uses proprietary drivers for its nVidia graphics card. Downloading the latest drivers from the computer manufacturer and installing them completely solved the problem.

YAY! *phew*

Please see my thread in the Bug Reporting forum. The game is unplayable for me right now and will be until I get some kind of fix.

Heck, I'll quote the post here.

edit: It's happening both on Live and on Test, which implies the problem is with my computer?

I don't speak geek, so bear with me here.

Since the patch last night, I've been having really serious graphics issues.

The screen doesn't refresh properly. Whenever I cast a spell, all my spell gems go black. The location dots on my minimap cause big black splotches as I move. Windows such as quest dialog windows go to black print on charcoal grey background. If I open the spells tab on my Abilities window, if I flip through pages, the print and the spell gems just sit on top of each other. If I type /flush, things return to normal until the next time I move or cast a spell or turn a page.

If there is another player in the zone with me, their toon will act as if they're in a dead zone -- I was grouped with Feinrik in Southwatch last night, he blinked at random but frequent intervals, and when he blinked his healthbar said he was 2km away. This lagged me out to the point of things looking like stop-action animation.

If I'm alone in the zone, I don't get the lag issue, but the screen refreshing thing remains the same.

Downloading and installing the latest video drivers for my graphics card did not have any effect.

Changing back to the default UI did not have any effect.

I don't know what to do and I can't do much of anything like this. Please help! (NB: if you want me to post some kind of error log, you'll have to tell me how to generate it and where to find it. Thanks.)

Did you try a full file scan? Also make sure you have the latest video drivers may want to try reinstalling them even if you had the latest.

No idea of what to do.... sorry. But it sounds like a Nil case to me
