Open your game_options.txt file in your PiratesOnline folder. When you have it open, look for the tag "api"

Replace what is below it (probably "default") to the following...

pandadx9

So that it looks something like this

api
pandadx9

Now save the file, close it, start the client and log in...and see if that fixes your problem.

It seems the game does not agree with openGL at all.
This was the perfect fix for my card - and ALL ATI users out there having this issue should be trying this ASAP!!!

It was SO bad that I had to use an ol'junky card instead of my ATI 2600 HD 512MB Card... but now - the picture is amazing...

Thank you for posting this fix.
