I haven't played PCM very much in the last couple of months, and I thought i'd get back into it again, and get back into my story. But, after lowering some of the graphical elements, this is what the game looked like:



This was the third stage of the Tour of Norway, the two previous stages ran fine, I think I last played about 2 weeks ago.
I tried the fourth stage and it was no different.
I tried a single race, same thing: (But with weird lines)

Any ideas? Is it PCM, or a computer issue?

Is it only that stage? If it is, it's a problem with the stage. Just simulate it and the game should be fine. |

No I don't think so. Stage 4 was the same, and the Galibier stage of the Tour was also. (These were the only stages I played/tested) So, i assume it would be the same for them all.

Try to reset the game by deleting the pcm folder in %appdata% (this is NOT the pcm folder in my document) |

The saves are in my documents\pcm12 folder,
but you should delete the pcm12 folder in %APPDATA%.
But if you are not sure what you do, then make a backup of your saves. |

I deleted the PCM 11 folder in appdata, and when I start the game it makes me create a new profile etc, so I restored the PCM 11 file back into Appdata, now what do I do? Do I delete the 'Cache' folder?

If I understood correctly, you did not do what I told you. Yes, you have to create an new profile but you could use the same information as before. Until it is not clear if that would have fixed your problem, I see no reason for helping any further. |

Thankyou. I need my product key is all, and I don't want to have to go through my crap load of unread spam e-mails to find it.

It didn't work. Created a new profile after deleting the PCM folder in Appdata and the same thing. I think it is probably a graphics issue.

That's definitely a problem with your graphics card. Try updating its driver.  |
