Two Bugs!

Two bugs for the price of one! Special!

#1: Squished Screenshots
About 1/3 of my screenshots come out seriously squished. Ingame has nothing like this, only the screnshots.

#2: Broken Color Selector
This happens from time to time. It's pretty self-explainatory. I can only see about 24 colors.

These screenshots were in no way editted, except to convert them to 85% JPEG format.

Only happens in DirectX, and appears to be a texture downsampling (32bit to 16bit). Also only occurs on the GeForce FX 5600, apparently.

Weird. I dunno about either bug. I'm blaming them on the nvidia drivers.

Note: Turning off Texture Compression fixes both bugs. Is it a decompression bug of some kind?

Just a reminder that anyone with this card (or any other that exhibits this behavior) should have texture compression OFF.

You know, I really wish texture compression would work. I remember now that turning mine on would make my screen completely black (even in beginning menu). It might be something you devs might wanna fix before release. It would be a nice feature to have.

You want us to fix the nvidia drivers? We'll get right on that.
