at point 2:11 there is a radar sweep. this i do not have

It really seems like somthing is wrong with my game. textures missing, multiplayer crashing...

when you zoom out in antartic the icebergs turn black. same for Davit boat........

if I upgrade my video card to one that way above the minimal limit of the game, will these
bugs go away?

in the latest version, you guys (and gals) look at Antarctica and see if you get these bugs.

if not, then Its my video card. If so, then they need to make a new patch.

The radar sweep at 2:55 (!) has been patched away because it was wrong - btw did you notice that the inboard radar in this particular video stand still and don't show anything?

The vid was uploaded late in august 2010, so it shows a veeery early version of the game.

Well  -and there are som graphic glitches here and there, so I wouldn't go and buy a new video card.

It actually kind of does, it's just not as obvious as it used to be.

If you watch a modern radar screen you can actually see the screen being refreshed in a sweeping motion as the scanner rotates, although there is no bright line like there used to be on the old sets.

Have you got this sorted?
I had problems with graphics anomalies when I had the anti-alias and anisotropic filtering set for maximum in the video cards control panel (i.e. the catalyst application as I am using an ATI card). When I reverted these to 'Application Controlled' and let Ship sim do the filtering the anomalies are gone (such as black icebergs etc).
I don't know whether this is related to your problems but worth a crack if you haven't tried this.

Hi Craig, it's not a graphics issue, the feature has been removed from SSE.

Sorry, I should have clarified that I wasn't meaning the radar sweep but the missing textures problem he was having. As I had all textures missing on the radar display and other anomalies.. This is not related to the sweep line.
