Hi, I'm replaying Doom3, with the latest 1.3 patch and the latest 82.12 
nvidia drivers on a 6800GT.  The problem is that when HQ setting is chosen, 
imp fireballs and transparent window areas turn into green blotches.  If I 
uncheck the first "use advanced HQ effects" on the Advanced video options 
page, the glitch goes away.

Anyone know what the problem is?  I'm thinking that some recent nvidia 
driver broke this, but it's been some time since I've played the game, with 
many updates inbetween.  thx!

If IIRC the cvar image_forceDownSize when set to 1 caused green/blue botch
problems, use

seta image_forceDownSize "0"

Theres some pretty nice high quality configs at <

those.
