Titel: Black Boxing and distortion when spells/special effects used
Beitrag von: briandir am 4. Okt 2017, 09:03
Hello.  Love your work.
So, when I use spells, usually, I will get nearly a complete screen black out.  Sometimes it's just in the corner of the screen, sometimes it's the whole thing.  Is there a setting I can change to prevent this. 
(my system can handle it, processor, graphics card, ram, all good)

                                                                                                                  Thank You
Brian

Sounds like a case of reinstalling...

Really, that's it?  Just reinstall? Are you familiar with this problem?  I ask because I have had this problem off and on since first playing, idk, however many years ago, and just through circumstance I've had to re-install because of new hardware, or system restore, etc.  and it just keeps becoming a problem.  I'll definitely try it but if there's anything else, please help.  It just wrecks the game.

If you have a NVIDIA graphic Card make sure that you deaktivated the Antialiasing in the Control Panel.

Thank You.  I'll give it a try and see how it goes.  I'll confirm if it works later....

If it doesn't work: Does it look like this?

Yes, that's exactly it. 
I turned the antiliasing off, haven't come across the problem again yet, but haven't played enough to say if it worked or not.

I'd like to know what was said on the page where your link to that screen shot was, but I can't get my PC to translate any or enough of it to make any sense to me.  So if you have any info. to give on the subject, I definitely want to know.

OKAY, I tried reinstalling, even different version, but I'm still having this blotchy black distortion during special effects, it just wrecks the game.  There's no way other people don't have this problem.  I play this game, different versions on two different PC'c, and they do the same thing.
HELLLLP!!!!???
It suuuucks.
Please and thanks.....

Hm, try to reinstall the graphic card driver...
Maybe it works.
