i noticed that alot of other peoples crewtures have long fur on them but mine doesn't have any does it grow with age?
 
What's your graphics card?  I suspect that it could be the problem.
 
i don't know but that maybe is it i must have the minimum one needed or something
 
Fur and blooming  are disabled  on older G/cards. 
Look at the graphics.config  file  (open with notepad) these are the default settings  for the G/cards that were around back then.
You can tweak this file  at your own risk . But in practice if you want hair  you may have to drop resolution or detail.
Your card can only do so much.
 
it's alright i was jsut wondering i don't want to do anything taht could harm my comp
 
have u checked in the bw2 options in the game?
I had those problems and my graffisme level was on low :laugh2.

Try that...
 
To see what your graphics card is:

Run >> Type in dxdiag. When that window opens, your graphics card is shown under the "Display" tab.
 
ok i have vista and i can't see run on the start menu where would it be on vista?
 
Press CTRL ALT DELETE, it should bring up a task manager, or a pop-up menu that has an option to start one.

Go to FILE, then NEW TASK, from there, follow Kays.
 
Yep, that's close enough.

I don't think that's capable of showing fur. But you can try altering the numbers of the last item in the Data\Graphics.config file which should be your graphics card.
 
nah it's ok i don't really like editing folders on my comp i'll just have to wait till i get a new comp to have ur on my creature
 
Fur is something you  could still have.
It is all really  a balancing act .....
If you reduce  one setting  that leaves more for another.
Really t the end of the day just go with the settings  that work for  you and your PC.
For me lower res and higher  detail looks better than higher res but lower detail.
 
I'm having a similar problem
the custom option to have fur is available
and i have it on, but my creature doesn't have fur, even when I use the config fix.
I'ev tried changing all of them

im running xp on my macbook with an intel GMA X3100 processor
does anyone have any suggestions?
 
Intel GMA X3100 graphics processor with 144MB of DDR2 SDRAM shared with main memory4
according to apple.

when i do dxdiag
it says
Mobile Intel(r) 965 express chipset family.

 
I was able to get fur, on my crapy pc.. but.. my pc didn't like moving hairs, so they where all stuck in one place like.. icicles! ^-^


I had to edit graphics.config to show hair though, I didn't have the option, nor had it when I edited the config.. :-/ But I had hair! Made the game look less silly! Mister beardie without a beard is silly! O_O
 
yeah
right now my lion looks like a puma or something
O.o

i've tried changing the numbers in the config file
and it should be able to do it since my comp runs everything great
it just isnt showing any hair
:(

Click to expand...

After the last line in the Graphics.config file try adding 965GM as another graphics card and then adjust the numbers.
