Hi there. In the future it's better if you attach the logs as files, GitHub gist or at least make them collapsible. Then they don't fill up the page 🙂
I've tried starting the game (steam version) on windows with dxvk 1.10.1 on my R9 380 at set view distance to 100. I haven't noticed anything so far.
Does it happen with all other graphics settings? Is it everywhere or in specific locations?
I have a Nvidia setup to try and test on, but don't have access to it at the moment.
Edit: I just noticed you are using a older driver. Are you able to try with the latest 516.59?
I tried the new driver, I am still suffering the same issues. The issues lessen when I do lower graphical settings but still always persist.
Hey I found what was wrong! I had to add launch options telling the game I had a bunch of VRam and it's working now.
Nothing extracted yet.
On max render distances the game just flips out and barely renders anything. Chaotic and unplayable.
