Is there anyone who can tell me why this game is so ugly in win 7 and so beautiful in win XP?
Is there any workaround?

Most people that have posted the power of their computers and saying Win7 gave bad graphics seem to all have a quad core processor and a more powerful video card compared to win7 machines that give decent graphics which have a less powerful video card and only dual core processors. I'm not sure if it would really make any difference but you could always try starting up RT3 and getting to the initial menu before loading a scenario, then alt-tabbing out, then ctrl-alt-del to get to the task manager, next under the processes click on RT3 and right click and hit set affinity, then try allowing it to use only 1 core (or maybe 2 cores since it works on dual core computers fine). It probably won't work but at least it's something else to try other than the update your video drivers idea if that hasn't worked for anyone. If it does work it's only a temporary fix though as you'd have to do it each time you start up RT3.Ttimber13 wrote: As you can see, the difference in quality in astounding. The two machines are also quite different.

I think it might have something to do with the power of the computers. I'm going to try under powering my computer later and see if that fixes the graphics problem. What do you all think?
