[4.12.2] Some maps starting as black and white garbage

Post by SPZ1 »

I found that some of the maps in my in-progress SPZ1 will initially start as a black/white mess when loaded from the command line. Hitting escape will always fix this though. I really don't know what to make of this:
Black/White
Black/White
Also my PC specs:
  • CPU - Intel Core i3 - 6100U, 2 Physical CPUs w/ Hyper-Threading
  • GFX - Intel HD Graphics 520
  • RAM - 4GB
  • VRAM - 1GB

I took a quick look at Doom2.wad and found this happening in at least MAP01-MAP04 in gzdoom 4.12.2
The only difference is that opening the console fixes it

Would you type into console "vid_preferbackend" and see what's the result? If it's "0" (= OpenGL), it could be the same as in here:

vid_preferbackend does indeed show a '0'.
