Missing FX in Multiplayer

[Colonel_Darren]

Hello, and thanks for taking time out of your day to try and help me with my issue. When i try to play the game online, all loads well, but, the FX for smoke, dust and gun fire is missing, I have a rather old card, ATI Radeon 9800 all in wonder pro, but the models and everything are appearing fine. I've tried reinstalling my drivers already and that has not worked, I'm out of ideas as to what to do, any help is greatly appreaciated. (i wouldnt mind it except in the giant black blocks that are place-holding for smoke really obscure my vision in battle to the point of where my screen blacks out in the middle of the artillery barrage or armoured assault.)

A friend of mine had the same issues and upgrading his detonators to worked.
Do you have the latest catalysts for sure?

What are your settings for texture detail, effects density and effects fidelity?

[Colonel_Darren]

Hmm, Yes i'm positive that i have the newest catalyst drivers, what are detonators in terms of video cards, I'm sorry but my knowledge is not that great when it comes to computers. And the settings are High across the bored for those three.
