its a video I made on youtube.
It a shadow bug only present In DX10 and when using the Flashlight.

Thanks for confirming.

Don't see a problem. :confused:

What is it we are supposed to be seeing?

phanbuey · Oct 30, 2009

yes... hit alt+enter... and then hit alt+enter again and it will go away. Driver bug. Just need to reset the window and then its good for the rest of the game... does it every time you close out then re-enter.

Wagnard · Oct 30, 2009

The flickering shadow on the building when lash light is on.
Its not sli related . so I doubt alt-enter will do but hey im gonna try it.

Sorry, I'm an old man with bad eyes. :eek:

Wagnard · Oct 30, 2009

I added bubble just in case another old man with bad eyes come in

What is the best way to let nvidia know about this problem?

its already in the nv forums - have you tried 182.42 drivers? But you can email them, their tech will mail you back within 24hours telling you to reinstall drivers

.

EDIT: oh damn the forums are down :banghead:

... email them. And you're right... that is definitely not SLI related - i thought you meant just shadow flickering (but staying in the same place)... that is some hardcore shadows going beserk going on there.

What drivers are you using?

Wagnard · Oct 30, 2009

Hum I don't see the nvidia email directly on their web site. I only see the driver feedback page (I have already submitted the bug there but no go... )
Can you point me out to the right email?

Im on the latest beta. 195.39 but this prob is happening on all official and beta release compatible with the GTX 295 since its release.

Edit: I reported an incident using the customers care thing. They will have no choice to answer so ill wait and see.

well that sucks... its all automated, and you will not be able to send them an email directly... you have to go and register in the user forums, and then request personal assistance.

Since the forums are down until tomorrow, that will be impossible. But here is the email

nvidia@mailca.custhelp.com

I don't know if they will respond to you if you did not go through their protocol but it is worth a shot.

:toast:

For the customer care thing, they will send you an automated email in like 8 hours with the most generic bullsh*t suggestions, and then a tech will email you a day or so later (at least what apened to me lol).

Wagnard · Oct 30, 2009

I emailed them. Thanks for your time and effort.

That's a game issue, not an issue with your GPU. Have you ever heard of dynamic lighting?

Wagnard · Oct 30, 2009

Yes I know what it is but the problem I mention is not happening on ATI card ( I tested). and setting shadow to minimum clear the issue, but there is no shadow :/

What do you mean there's no shadow? There definitely are shadows being cast all over the place.

I'm guessing he means when he turns shadows off(minimum quality) the problem goes away. If there are no shadows how can they flicker? Although that would be like sweeping dirt under a carpet and not calling it a problem...

Yep thats what I mean. Sorry if I wasnt clear, english is not my top language... But anyway, Problem not present on ATI cards.

Binge · Oct 30, 2009

The more I think about it... is the OP saying it's not an SLI issue because he's turned dual GPU off to test?

Wagnard · Oct 30, 2009

Not a sli issue because im running in window-mode. And ive tried the SLI to off option too and its the same.

sneekypeet · Oct 30, 2009

I dont have said issue. I see what you are trying to show, but even a quick retest I get nothing like that at all.

Wagnard · Oct 30, 2009

It may be related to a particular card too. thats why im asking people to test. So GTX285 seem ok. What is your driver?

running an XFX 280 in my rig in the specs, shes folding the 285. 191.07

Wagnard · Oct 30, 2009

Youre using the flashlight to test right? because its the shadow made by the flashlight on SOME object. In the video its the verry first burning house we encounter when starting a new game. (right one to be precise)
Dx10 of course.

Solaris17 · Oct 30, 2009

does it happen in just that section of the wreck? or does it happen to more parts than just the corner? does it also happen to the burning house on the other side? have you tried replaying the level? it could be a sprite issue.

sneekypeet · Oct 30, 2009

I recognised the scene and played it over. Still not an issue with the flashlight, no matter how many times i flashed it, ALT+Enter, Jumping, and in various modes of the suit, I get no wierd shadowing.

Binge · Oct 30, 2009

I think my original point wasn't really clear. The latest Crytech engine is buggy as hell. Lighting and paralex occlusion in particular are subjects often under fire with devs, and it seems some people have problems and some people don't. Here's a vid of some guy who's a dev who can't figure out a strange paralex occlusion issue that I see in the game all the time.
