Halo problems

This isn't going to be a "I hate how Halo runs like sh!t" thread. It runs okay, but the main problem is much different.



When I get to the main Halo menu (the one with Campaign, Multiplayer, etc buttons), it's completely pink. Yow. I yearn for the blue color that it's supposed to be, but it seems like something is really fvcked up.



In the first level, the screen would tint all red when I was in a certain part of the level. No, it wasn't screen flashes.



I have a G5 with a FX 5200 Ultra. I heard that Nvidia cards are kinda buggy in Halo, anyone have advice?



Thanks.

    You didn't happen to turn on Anti Aliasing did you? Turn it to off.

    Is that the problem? I don't mean that the EDGES of objects tint red, I mean the whole frickin' screen tints red. Like, so red that it's hard to see.

    How do I access that dialogue that first appears when Halo starts? The normal-looking window that has the AA options?



    Or can I tweak it in the Video prefs inside Halo?

    I think its a standard. hold Option when starting the game.. I believe this works for all games that have a pre game setup window.

    Just a side note, but holding option while opening any app <i think> will reset the windows to the center of the screen.

    flick.

    I turned off FSAA, and the problem went away. Thanks!

    it runs OK, but on a G5 the game needs to be better optimized, maybe use that 64-bit thingy!? Maybe go into dual 32-bit emo.
