Topic: Video issues after patch?
Maradon!
posted 03-22-2005 03:29:11 PM
It seems like this patch has irrevocably disabled FSAA for WoW, at least for me.

Paradoxically, shit is all blurry in addition to being jaggy. Some of it I can see as being a new fog effect in darkshore, but not all of it.

As you can see, the names in the upper right are SERIOUSLY fucked up. They only clear up when I get very close. On the other hand, the archway is riddled with jaggies from a lack of FSAA.

What the fuck?

No idea. Might want to check some settings I guess? :\ May be because they fixed full glow + AA.

Speaking of that...

WoW defaults to original settings after a patch I believe. Make sure that you turned everything back to the way you want it.

Looks like full glow was responsible for the lack of FSAA and blurry names.

I guess Full Glow + FSAA wasn't fixed after all, since it looks like shit every time I turn it on. Too bad, it's a cool effect.

Upgraded as a part of troubleshooting this, actually. Forgot that I'd downgraded to play blockland.

So guess what the obvious answer is. WoW is doing something that nVidia drivers don't like. Check your nVidia control panel and make sure everything that is supposed to be turned on is on. If that dosn't fix the issue post on the WoW technical support forums.

1) Nobody else with an nvidia card seems to be having an issue.

2) What the hell is supposed to be turned on?

3) Forum logins are down

I don't have an nVidia card so I can't really give you a step by step on what all needs to be done. Either wait for someone more knowledable then me or deal with it.

I've got no video issues, but is anyone else having connection issues?

Might be the card is too old to support the new effects?

Having video lag issues with the death effect (everything turns white deal). For some reason, it can't be turned off now...really annoying.

I have the same card as Maradon and I'd like to know if I have the same issues as well, but I haven't been able to log in all day.

You just have to disable full glow effect and it fixes everything.

Well I never had FSAA on in the first place.

I would say use Omega drivers but the newest ones that came out 2 days ago suck balls right now. Overall they are better drivers than Catalyst. Check em' out.
