I have read all the posts about what I'm SUPPOSED to do here... but no one else has reported that the "pentagrams" or whatever I am supposed to insert the statues into are completely invisible. Either I am colorblind or the dang things are in infrared, or my graphic card (an ATI radeon 8500, not too shabby) can't display correctly.

I haven't had that many other graphics glitches in the game so far, but interestingly, i had a very similar problem in Divine Divinity during a scene where you had to place candles in a pentagram. Same deal... no sign of the pentagram anywhere. Eventually I succeeded by pure trial and error.

Oh, and i've already tried different zoom settings, different resolutions etc. there is nothing indicating any sort of symbols in the main statue room whatsoever. Can anyone post a screenshot of what the pentagrams look like on their computer? All i have here is bupkis dungeon texture.

thank you so much!

i still can't see the pentagrams, but at least i was able to shuffle them about until they "clicked" in the right positions (when they were in the right place i could no longer pick them back up).

your graphic definitely looks different than my screen. I have my monitor set to fairly warm temperature settings, so my tint is somewhat reddish. i think maybe that somehow completely hides certain similar shades, or causes them to blend into the ground.

I have no Radeon, only a Geforce 4 TI 4200, but I guess it's the warm colours you set your monitor to.

In BD's video options, set Darkness to 50, and turn up the gamma a bit (bright enough to see better, but not enough to cause eye strain).
