Dunno what to tell you man. I'm running it on the same OS and have had no problems.

Is his graphics card old / damaged? Are his drivers up to date? Has he tried re-installing the game?

Ive asked him all those and he says no nothing is damaged and his drivers are up to date, and he says that he has reinstalled it and still got the same thing, plus he is a 12 yr old kid so i dont know?

Thats called artifacting, and i would not trust anything a 12 year olds says.

But it means his card is overheating, what card does he have?

Make sure you go into your graphics card settings and disable forced anti aliasing.

Failing that, we would need to know what graphics card he has.

While such a huge amount of graphic glitching could be caused by an immense number of things, I had some artifacts (nothing like this, but could be somewhat related) when I was playing it on my laptop.
My problem was related to shadows, and apparently they didn't render properly on polygons at medium to infinite range: every one of them was divided in its two triangles, one at normal brightness, the other one very dark. I found out that by raising the quality of shadows (at first it was to minimum) the problem dimmed, yet remained. The card was an NVidia 8600M, XP32 SP3.

From what I can see in the video it appears it has trouble rendering everything below the horizon, that's why I thought there might be some slim relation.

Noxywoxy: his specs are loosely reported in the video:

I am using windows 7 i have directx 10 and a nvidia gt 220 1gb of video memory and 4gb of ram.

Hi, give what Noxy said a go, turn off anti aliasing in for your video cards 3d settings and see how that is any better.

Moving this to Bug subforum

thanks for the information.
worked well after turning off anti aliasing.

by the way, just realized the developers in Dark Water Studios, Ltd are very responsive in the forums. Honestly I am not interested neither skillful in such genre games, however due to the prompt responses from the developers make me want to support in them ;) hence i shall purchase this game regardless whether i play or don't play this game Dogfighter.

Keep up the great work...cheers!
