Shader Problem (I'm not an idiot)
Hi there.
Ever since first downloading the game I have had some fairly minor problems with shaders. They do work, but the two major things that I have problems with are these:

1. Fluid Blood.

The fluid blood setting, when turned on, does make the blood 3D, but it never sticks to the floor. This is annoying. The attached screenshot shows what this looks like. It just won't stick!



2. Background Glitches

Here is a screenshot of what my background looks like with shaders enabled. While this is not always the case (it usually isn't this severe, and usually just by resetting the shaders a few times the background looks normal), it is still annoying.



How can these problems be solved? I have tried downloading the game again, and I had the same problem with older versions. Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
As Fyerrblad said , update your Graphics card , it cant handle the shaders and fluid blood now.
Download new drivers from your card's company site.
RelaxAll was life. Feels bad to be an oldie.
Not sure if you want all of it, because there is certainly more, but here's what's listed under system information.

Nice & easy to find that one - it's got an ATI Xpress 1150

Since it's a laptop ATI it means you're stuck with the drivers the manufacturer makes - and Dell only have 1 which you'll be using.

So, direct your attention to this thread, goto the ATI tool & follow the instructions:

Thanks, I'll try it.

EDIT: Worked PERFECTLY. I cannot tell you how greatful I am, guys. Everything works now, cel shaders, fluid blood, and no more of that background glitch. It even runs at a higher fps now, thanks!
