I've been having the same problem. In spite of keeping my drivers up to date, my graphics card does not like SK one bit.

It's annoying. Fortunately, these visual errors aren't game breaking, and can be ignored or even temporarily fixed by re-clienting (killing Java in task manager, then rebooting)

this problem seems to pop up

this problem seems to pop up after a few hours of play for me, just curious are we all using AMD cards, my friend never has this problem using an older (300 series) Nvidia card?

yes, yes, YES!

This is actualy going somewhere... Yeah i can play some hours without bugs too then it pops on. Im using ''AMD radeon HD 7800 series''
And well problem KINDA fixes when you set your settings to LOW. But in Vanaduke level (D-27) It just pops on. The lighting just goes crazy same as fire...
High or Low still the same crap.. :/

Probable Solution

Well.... i might got the solution on this miserable crap. Before I got reinstalled windows (month ago)... i had old video card and well my java was 64bit and all was fine. :)
When i got new video card textures went crap i had installed 32bit java .Iv'e read that it allows to only use a gig of ram ... or something i dont know... .If you have this problem please check what bit system you have
and make sure you have right java installed. Ive played some hours and i got no bugs. Il post more if il still have texture problems

How to know what bit computer i have? right-click/My computer>properties And you can see "system type: xx-bit"
Then search "java manual download" and click your one ^^
I hope ive fixed it i really do.

Still a problem...

Please fix this problem, sometimes I can't even identify what the items are because the textures are so warped!

I also have an AMD Radeon 7xxx GFX card, but this shouldn't be occuring!

I also made sure I'm running 64 bit java as my OS is 64 bit.

The new AMD Radeon stuff has some problems

I do not use AMD Radeon graphics cards but I have heard many people are getting glitches using the newer ones with Spiral Knights. Try using a different kind of graphics card.

Also how many are using Windows 8? There have been problems about playing Spiral Knights with Windows 8 as well. Use Windows 7 because it works better with online games.

Still havent found a way to fix it, im running win-7.
Made even a forum tread in AMD: http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.cfm?catid=443&threadid=176050&ent...

Cant fix it. AMD says its OOO fault, OOO says its AMD's fault so yeah.

.

My Intel HD Graphics 4000 driver also has a similar problem. After a duration of time somewhere in between 10 minutes and one hour of playing, the UI gets a texture like old television static, body armor turns black, helmets get weird textures, and text becomes glitched or even invisible in some places.

This has been occurring ever since the UI update, and the "Shroud of the Apocrea" mission makes it occur even faster and often crashes the game. This had never occurred before the UI update, and has never been fixed by the Three Rings developers; furthermore, I can't just get a new graphics card because I have a laptop, and I'm not paying all that money for an entire new laptop.

Amd allready said this game is bug "Riden"
