In the Windows version radar is clear as long as there is no warp zone in sight:

When there is a warp zone in sight radar works, but not without flaws:

As you can see the station isn't marked with an 'S'. In fact no objects are shown with a letter in radar, only boxes. Ie the stations are grey boxes with a little touch of lilac.

I've tried resetting radar and turning all the things off and on, but without success.
In Linux though, it works flawlessly.

These are my specs:
Dell Inspiron 4150
P4 M 1,7 GHz
512 MB DDR RAM
Radeon 7500M (M6) 32 MB
I'm using Dell's ATI drivers and I've tried several revisions.
There are no official ATI drivers for my card.
DirectX is 9.x (latest from windows update)

Ok, this is the classic Radeon 7*00 radar bug.
You will have to edit the config.ini file located where you installed Vendetta.
find this line:
ps_hack=0
and change it to:
ps_hack=1

Also, what do you mean there are no official ATI drivers for that card? The Catalyst 3.10 drivers should cover that card in addition to all other Radeon cards.

It might have helped him, but it happened before, i just forgot to report it....

My specs are:

P4 M 1.8 GHz
256 MB DDR RAM
Geforce 4, MX440
Os, windows xp
DirectX is 9.x (latest from windows update)

It might not be relevent because it stoped after the last update...
