Solved: 8 Years, 1 Month ago Question  Upside Down Graphics Issue

Hello everyone.

Not only I, but my friend, both bought the game for our laptops. I'll talk about my issue, however, as it's less discussed than his.

The game loads, profile selection is available, however during this Main Menu screen, and definitely in game, my 3d models are upside down. Even more odd, my particle effects, i.e. the flames for torches, specular levels for the windows, etc, are right-side-up.

Essentially, Im running on the ceilings, everything is upside down minus particle effects, and its a mess.

This isnt just my computer, as previous people have posted, higher demanding games run JUST FINE on GOOD graphics.

As a secondary note, my friend is having the Renderer #0 issue. Two different bugs, two different operating systems, same level of false hope.

I've UNchecked "Insanity," along with other graphics options: resolution, edge loops, etc and I'm still stuck with the same situation. Also, I am running as Admin.

These issues are GENERALLY ALL RELATED to ATI graphics cards...

My computer specs are as follows:

Toshiba Satellite A355D
Processor: AMD Turion x2 Ultra Dual-Core
4 GB RAM
64 bit OS
Graphic Card ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 Series
ATI Radeon HD 3200
