allegiance turns yellow

I have the same problem, I have XP with a Nvidia Quadro NVS (I'm using my laptop). I might try ALT+TABing when I get it again to see if it works.

Let me know if that works out =P

Remember, if it works like Inf, you don't need to wait for the yellow to occur, just when the framerate begins to drop. Sucks when everything goes yellow during a dogfight

Just came back to Alleg with a new PC. Getting this issue as well. Alt+Tab does seem to fix it... but its not a very elegant solution.

Same problem with my new system, Alt+Tab whacks it out for a bit, but it will come back.

Get the Alpha GFX Engine here which should stop all the errors. Make sure to read the post before you DL as the alpha client needs to be configured and has a few bugs.

Short of that you will just have to stick to alt tabbing out, although after a couple of weeks this problem eventually started crashing my client and then my whole system.

As I said. It's a temporary fix. It's useful though yes? Just helping in any way I can.

I updated my GPX card drivers (8800GTS) a while ago and had the same problem. I had to actually log out of ASGS and restart to fix the problem... however, I recently found out if u change the "Max texture size" under graphics, the problem will go away for awhile and your FPS will shoot up again... so normally if I notice my FPS to start slowing down or im setting up to nan on a bomb run, I'll just filter through the options. I hope this helps some folks, I know this is somewhat of a necropost.

Yep Necro much, but thanks for the info. Will keep it in mind for the future.

I have the same problem with my Geforce GTS 250, also had it with Geforce 8800 which both have very similar chipset apparently.

I tried using the alpha, but it crashes ever hour or so and i prefer easily fixable yellow boxes over that.

Enabling/disabling using secondary device cures the symptom just as alt tabing out and its a lot faster.
You can play almost without interuption to the gameplay by automating that with AutoHotKey (or whatever). I'm using AutoHotKey anyways so i can zoom with the mousewheel.

Here is the code to make Shift+v counter the yellow boxes:

+v::
sendinput {Esc}ds
sleep 100
sendinput {Esc}{Esc}
return

I have the same problem, in XP with a GeForce 8800GT. According to what I've heard, this is exclusive to newer nVidia cards. With this happening and a restriction on graphics modes on old DOS games (I'm a big-time retro gamer), the next card I get is going to be ATi. nVidia's just pissing me off too much these days. It seems like every time they come out with a new card line, they drop off more functionality.
