I love the Thief and System Shock games and found Arx was right
up my street as well, plenty of nice touches and a real "atmosphere"
game.. the only problem I have with it is missing textures (some items
appear opaque white) apparently due to an incompatibility with my
6800 graphics cards. This doesn't look likely to be fixed;

..only affects a selected number of items like loaves, giant rats and
levers, and once you know it you stop trying to kill loaves and pull
rats :p

Note: this thread is a few months old.
I had this very same problem (with a Geforce 6600 GT) with the textures turning white, but the new batch of textures (see the link) fixed it. Works like a charm! I recommend someone makes this thready a Sticky, since I presume it might crop up pretty often in the future (from browsing through that thread, I got the impression that <b>all</b> the future GPUs will have this problem).

Seems reasonable. Done. (Plus I've edited the title to be more specific.)
If you grabbed the very first version of the fix, note that there's a second version that fixes the rope texture as well.
