Visual bug on high end video cards

[Bacanaman]

I use a 2012 client. This is what the game looks like on a Nvidia GTX 960 (this also happens on the Nvidia GTX 1080):

Asides from the black squares, I'm using Red Glasses, but as you can see, they don't appear.

I tried updating my drivers, changing the graphic device in Setup.exe, etc. I can temporarily fix it by pressing ctrl+alt+del, but some visual bugs persists even after that. Then I tried using a 2014 client, but it didn't change anything. Is there any solution or client that fixes it?

It has the same problem as you.  Read threw it.

All you have to do is disable the lightmap in setup.exe ("Option" tab).

The first post you mentioned basically tells me to do the ctrl+alt+del thing, which, as I said before, does not solve everything and is not an optimal solution, as I have a lot of users who run into this problem too. The second one, about disabling lightmap in setup.exe, does not fix all the visual bugs - and it makes the game look awful.

To fix the black squares change the Video Card in Ragnarok Steup to your standard (it happens with some new video cards, like NVidia ones)

Yes, it didn't change anything.

A workaround method i just found:  Looks annoying.

I have come to save you all from this misery. Here is what you do, it's simple, just a few steps.

1. Have the game open. (It doesn't matter what screen you are at, fullscreen or not.)
2. Alt+Tab FIRST to your desktop. (If you hit ctrl+alt+del directly from the game it will crash.)
3. After the Ragnarok client is minimized, THEN hit Ctrl+Alt+Del, then cancel out of the that menu.
4. Maximize your Ragnarok Client again.
5. Thank Odin for restoring Midgard to it's former GLORY! (This will fix EVERYTHING.)

It appears like its a common issue with the higher end nvidia cards, and the old ragnarok.

Yeah, the thing is it doesn't happen on official servers... :/

[srhmike]

Official servers use a newer client.  Try using a 2015 client.

That's what I'm trying to do right now, but all the 2015+ hexeds I tried gave me a blank error. When I try to use 1rag1 to execute, I get this:

Are you doing all the recommended patches, and then using an updated grf and lub/lua files?

Yes, I am. I tried using zackdreaver's files. Then I tried using kRO's latest data. Got the same results.

I also tried following both these guides: 

The last one is recent, so I had some hope using the client she uses in the guide, but it didn't help at all. You won't need to set up any server to test this, so may I ask you to try following one of these guides' client-side to check if it works?

My guessing is u are running on pre-renewal right? Try to use 2015-09-16 client. This client should be no problem.. i've tested it.. u just need to make sure ur kRO full client is patched beyond 16 sept 2015 + using any clientside english translation project. Either using zackdreaver or dastgir's clientside translation.

Yes, I'm running on pre-renewal. Just tried the 2015-09-16 client, but it does not execute (I double click it and nothing happens - even as administrator). That's been happening with every 2015 hexed I tried to use, the only one that worked was this one, already diffed, from anacondaqq: 

The problem with his client is that it's already diffed so I can't apply any other diffs than the ones he used :/

Yeah, I know. The thing is when I the hexed / undiff client, it does not open. Even if I apply exactly the same diffs he says he used. I decided to stay with 2012 client, as it can be translated to my native language. Thx for the help!
