Graphics Analomies

Markas_Carter

Just bought the game through gamestop, and went though a huge process to get it licensed UGH. Anyways I'm having graphics analomies all over the place as shown in the screenshots.

Current behavior:

Expected behavior: No Graphics Analomies

Does the computer you're using have an Intel CPU and/or a NVIDIA graphics card?

I don't know if it's the OP's problem or not, but the only graphics card settings in the Nvidia Control Panel that negatively affects the Baldur's Gate series are Triple buffering and/or V-sync. You don't need to disable anything else really.

@Fenghoang
Well, I've done some testing, and the safest thing to do is to turn everything off.
Some of other graphical options caused small blur.

Fenghoang

Oh... you probably had one of the AA's enabled (probably FXAA). FXAA tends to blur everything to alleviate aliasing in games when enabled. I usually keep all of that off by default and either enable it on ingame or manually enable a game profile in the console - less conflicts and better performance that way.

I should have clarified - the default settings when you install your drivers/control panel shouldn't negatively affect BG. And even if they do, only Triple Buffering/Vsync would be "game-breaking." It's the option that causes the screen to flicker, have weird overlays, and etc.

Yes Intel HD 4000 Graphics Card to be exact.

Thanks for the link. I want to make sure I am changing the correct setting before I actually change it. Is this correct: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lhc81v4cub6py07/Intel HD Settings.png

Ouch. Intel
Yeah, those are the options.

But unfortunately, Intel graphics are not supported by BG:EE. So, your problem may not disappear.

@Fenghoang thanks for the info, that clear things up. I've done this solution by myself with trial and error :P
