Guild Wars 2

I was following around a few of my friends from Harathi into Gendarran and then this happened.

That’s not pink. It looks more like magenta. So, working as intended.

Okay, so about my computer’s GPU: HD7770 2g DDr5 VRAM.
This happens even after completely exiting GW2 and logging back in.
This seems to only have happened in Gendarran Fields and only effects the grass texture.
Running the repair shortcut now.

EDIT: repair shortcut fixed it, this thread can be closed.

Yes I was going to suggest a repair, it looked like corrupted texture. Good to hear you have it fixed.

It oddly looks like a normal map. Kinda neat. Er, I mean normal map in the map used for giving textured materials depth. Not as in, you know, it looks normal.

Yeah, it’s corrupted textures. I had a similar bug last week, except it was affecting all dolyaks. Bright pink dolyaks everywhere in WvW!

The ground is composed by more than a single texture. It uses several textures overlaying each other, so why it oddly can still look “normal”. Their issue was just one of the “minor” textures that compose the ground was the corrupted one.

This happened again in fireheart, I know running the -repair will fix it, but is there a way to stop it from happening?

You might run a chkdsk on your hard drive, you might have a bad sector or something that the files are written onto.

looks like you’re playing wow lol XD

Not a bad sector, maybe it’s caused by a slightly underpowered power supply for my GPU thus not loading the textures correctly?

If when you left the map and returned it worked properly then:
- Memory card grphique damaged at least one zone. Nothing to do except hope that the damaged area is never a key area if it gets worse, after sales service
- Transmission of data between the hard drive and graphics card that has undergone corruption, nothing to do.

If this happens way repeated on different things:
- Check the fan on the graphics card
- Check the power supply to the graphics card in electricity, cable or voltage supplied
- Verified that the graphics card is inserted or has not moved
- If the graphic card on the first PCI-E slot and the CPU cooler come less than a centimeter of arri_re card, then move slot because it creates interference.

the texture, once it became what you see in that picture, didn’t revert until I ran the -repair shortcut.

Fan is fine on the GPU; PSU might be slightly under-powered though it’s what was recommended to me for my GPU; GPU hasn’t moved and is still firmly in the slot; I only have one PCI-E slot on my motherboard.

Thoughts: Probably best to upgrade my PSU, but I plan on building a new machine soon.
