Artifacting is getting worse.

[Rizzia]

Ive tried to bug report every single location where i find some artifacting (ATI issue only it seems). But with each new build there seems to be more and more, and in places that were previously fine.

Gives me a headache playing while these are near (and no its not my gfx card on the way out)

Ive gone through all the adv graphics options and while some change them to just grey rather than multicoloured, nothing gets rid.

I've also noticed this phenomenon, primarily in this newest release. I think it's happening more at night when there are light sources around, but I will test further to see if this is the case. Enabling V-sync right now to see if that has an impact.

Ive so far found and reported

1 in Eveningstar (bonfire)
1 in the Eveningstar Cavern (next to entrance to eveningstar)
3 in the Eveningstar Tavern
2 in the Trial by Fury quest (1 ontop of hidden chest (old one), 1 at orb)
2 in Kings Forest (both on buildings)

All but 1 of those in Trial by fury are new to this build, I physically cant check everywhere, and fear ATI might be unsupported upon release (bad move)

Just logged on lama and artifacting is worse than ever. Yeah, im a ATI user, please fix this for launch.

I am confirming the bug at least at Eveningstar...

I hate to ask if you made sure its plugged in, but did you update your ATI drivers to current and check? Sometimes these problems are with the video card drivers and not the game.

Yes, and it seems especially around fire places:

One question thou, does it maybe depend on the graphics card and not only on the driver (Catalyst 12.4)? This ones above are with a Radeon HD7xxx.

If it was drivers then how come all the other bonfires in eveningstar are fine, and just 1 is artifacting (one that was fine in the last build)? Well that and in the first closed beta, the "beyond the rift" had about 20 different locations with heavy artifacting, and the devs fixed those, so Im thnking its not drivers.

It seems with the current update those artifacts are gone. At least I hadn't noticed them today when running around.
