As mentioned in the news section, we are testing a new graphics engine - read about it here - http://blog.roblox.com/?p=190
It's not perfect. It's not even tested very well. We need your help to find bugs and glitches so that we can fix them! So if you've got the experimental Direct3D graphics turned on, and you see some graphics bugs, let us know.
The best way to let us know is to post in the Support forum. Make it clear in the title of your post that you have a problem with the new graphics. If you can, please let us know your system specs, especially which graphics card you have. If you don't know your system specs, just let us know how old the computer you are using is and we will try to figure it out. We'd also like to know if you are on Windows XP or Vista.

So far, after all tests, I have found nothing that is out of place, except the camera kinda messes up when in tight areas.

| Yeah, The hats are messy in the new lighting. Another problame is that when you try to make a blast ratius bigget the animation stays the same, but the blast gets bigger... |

I'm using a 2001 home edition windows xp with service pack 2, and the bugs for me are:
-All in-game text is black
-Decals, except for face, flicker.
-The explosions cause lag sometimes (I'm on a slow computer though.)
I'll notify if I find more bugs.
I just thought, maybe we get a reward for testing this... |

This is weard... In Bridge Crossing Classic (Heli's by StealthPilot) place Using the Experimental Graphics, i can see a lot of Black and Grey (possably more like purple) appears, i think it's the Helicopter's Rotor (the spinning thing lol) that is making those weard things... it's kinda annoying because i do like Bridge Crossing Classic but the bug is making me fall to the bottom of the bridge =S |

| I had problems recording in FRAPS too - seems to only happen sometimes. If you are really adventurous, you can try rendering in experimental OpenGL mode, which is even more untested. That worked for me. |

| Ok, i apologize if this question seems a bit newbish. But what do you mean by restart ROBLOx? I opened up studio, went to tools, settings, and then set it to DirectX mode. So i exited out of studio and then went back in but it didnt work... And i really want to see that 100% more fire ;_; |

Intile, you gotta close all ROBLOX windows and then open ROBLOX That worked well to me
Oh and Telamon, about the experimental OpenGL mode, Kirby said it was going fine to him But to me, something strange happened When i tried to visit a place, it said it got an error and it didnt worked... Why? O_o |
