I just donwloaded ME2 (ver. 1.02) from steam and I'm running on a Geforce GTX 550 Ti.
OS: Win7 DX 11
Video driver: 275.33

The problem is that all the textures turn to black near the character, mostly on the floor level, and on Miranda's face, and some other charcters as well, the polygons keep turning black, depending on the angle, again this happens when the camera gets near the object.

I've tried turning AF on, 2x ,4x up to 16x, and the issue is stronger with AF at 16x.

You'll need a 25x.xx series Geforce Driver. The newer ones screw up the UT3 games.

[rShinnok]

thanks I'll try that, any driver version in particular?

[Gorath Alpha]

I haven't used a Geforce equipped PC with Mass Effect in a couple of years, sorry. Is there a 258-something available?

[rShinnok]

unfortunately the 25x drivers doesn't support geforce 500 series...
I'm going for the lowest ver. I could find, that was supported for my 550, the 267.59 hope it works better...

nvidia drivers are really sad... =/

Money's been tight or all the PCs here would have been Radeon-equipped by now. Not that it's a case of being particularly better, although the costs favor AMD. It's the opposite of the situation in the second half of the prior decade, when ATI was fumbling with drivers badly, If you need 'em, look for the Omega versions of the Geforce drivers, which should work with your GPU.

[rShinnok]

it didn't work...
As I said before think its a anisotropic problem, as every time I turn it up the black areas on the ground gets bigger... is there a way to really disable AF?

You can disable AF for Mass Effect 2 in your Nvidia control panel. Right click your desktop, open the Nvidia control panel, click Manage 3D Settings.

Either change it in the global settings and hit Apply before closing the window or click the Program Settings tab and select Mass Effect 2 (you might have to uncheck "Show only programs found on this computer" since you have the Steam version.)

I have no problems with the graphics in the game though and I'm using a GeForce GTX 560 Ti, with the latest GeForce beta drivers (280.19)

Have you tried right clicking the game shortcut in your Steam Library and entering the Properties menu, then opening the Local Files tab, clicking the "Verify Integrity of Game Cache" button and waiting for it to scan and possibly download damaged or missing files?

That's a standard solution if steam games start acting weird... So you probably knew that.

Do you have any kind of advanced shadows enabled? Face and ground near characters sounds like a shadows rendering issue.

[Kaitheus]

Try to disable dynamic shadows and see if that fixes the problem, there noted for making dark areas/shadows.

Both AF and shadows can be disabled through the ME2 config utility, which Steam seems to think you dont need access to. You will need to search your drive for masseffect2config.exe and run it.

The first time you launch the game through Steam it runs the launcher by default. Whenever you click the link to run the game from your Steam Library after that, you are asked whether you want to, Play Mass Effect 2, run the Mass Effect 2 Launcher or View Support Information.

Seems fairly reasonable to me really.

So Steam does seem to think that you should have the choice to run the config utility if you want to change something.

[Bogsnot1]

Most of the people who we have told to check the config utility seem to have problems finding it, hence why I made that comment.
I dont use Steam myself.

I've tried all this configs, even used MOD MANAGER to edit the Coalesced.ini, but with no improvements... it's like if the polygons are colliding with the shades and getting black...

As bunnytrooper said he is running fine with the same card, I thinks it's really the game cache that may be corrupted....

Have you tried testing the card itself in like 3DMark etc ? to see if it gets the same issues ? As its starting to sound like either the card is faulty or something with the motherboards going bad, I'm having to replace my motherboard here shortly due to a bad PCI-E, how ever I'm still able to use it, I just can't play AVI's through that PCI-E >.> I know its a really odd issue but atleast it didn't kill the board outright lol.. Your want to test that card thoroughly before thinking its ME2 that's the issue.
