FLASHING TEXTURE MAPS

[veger699]

ok installed cosmo and right from the gitgo been having problems with the bars. buttons didapering and the side bars swithing from being on the side two rows or on oposite sides. crashing and flashing texture surface little mirrors flashing all over the screen. deleted cosmo and cant get ride of the side bars no matter what i do the flashing textures have stoped except for the occasional flash. I have read that sidebar has been removed so why is it still in the release?????? I would like to use cosmo but if I cant get this flashing thing to stop..... Any help would be appreciated.

First, it appears that your caps lock key is broken in some way in your title.

2nd, do not use the release version, use the alpha.

to make sure that everything is reset, backup and then delete your interface and WTF folders from the world of warcraft folder. then install the alpha (it should create the interface folder), the wtf folder will be remade on creation (you will have to set your ingame settings again).

Thanks for the quick response
I work in an engineering field were the caps are always on and don’t always catch it when switching to something non-work related (and shouldn’t be doing at work LOL)
Shouldn't there be some comments stating the alpha is the better option? Release versions are typically less problematic and as such I usually op for them.
If there are comments that I missed I apologize now for my oversight

There should be comments somewhere that the alpha will be less buggy than the release, but this isn't the case. I would've gone with a revision by revision release with perhaps a few back revisions available to people.

I've always used the alpha, it's usually kept up to date and rarely has problems that aren't resolved with some speed. My suggestion is just to use the alpha :)
