Something doesn't look like it's supposed to look? Objects not being displayed/rendered correctly? Then this is the right place to let us know.

General hints:


We strongly recommend using the latest graphics drivers available for your graphics card! Older driver versions do not support some of the features used by Paraworld. This can result in phenomenons such as invisible units. If you have an ATI or an nVidia gfx card, you can download the latest drivers here at ATI.com (http://www.ati.com/online/customercareportal/drivers.html) and here at nVidia.com (http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp) respectively.
Should there be graphical glitches that always show up after you played the game for a certain amount of time - let's say 20-30 minutes - this could be a sign of your graphics card running too hot and not being cooled efficiently. Set all the graphics settings to the minumum level then and check out whether this issue still occurs at all or later. If you've overclocked your gfx card on your own, you might want to decrease the clockrate again to the normal level in order to keep your hardware from running too hot.



What we'd like to know/have:


Screenshots if possible! Often enough, a picture will help us localize a problem much faster than a long description. If you want to know how screenshots can be made and where they are stored, read this page (http://www.sek-ost.de/stuff/data_en.html).
What kind of hardware and drivers are you running? The easiest way would be attaching your DXDiag info to your post. In case you don't know how to get ahold of this information: Windows Start menu -> Run -> enter dxdiag and confirm -> let the tool run and then choose Save All Information.
