    Default Tiny Black spots on buildings - SOLVED

    I have a graphical issue with NTW - during town battles there are tiny black dots on all the buildings. Anyone else got this problem? I'll take a screen shot and show you. I have tried a few different drivers but to no avail. I have an ATI HD 4800.

    install speed fan and rivatuner to see the temps of your comps, try older drivers if from nvidia go to the 192.XX or the 186.XX for ATI go to the 9.6 or lower 9.9 also works.

    for an explanation on how to install drivers correctly see the troubleshoot sticky

    Cheers - temp is between 38 and 40 degrees. I have tried earlier drivers and have had no luck. I have also played around with the graphics setting. The only thing that causes an effect is volumtetric setting. The dots remain, they just change from black to a sandy colour. See attached

    that is a rendering issue... try another set of drivers, sorry al, you're going for trial by error

    Ok its the adaptive anti-ailiasing thats causing the problem. When I turn it off its all fine. CA really need to sort out their driver issues.

    The problem is as soon as CA patch NTW to the latest drivers it is obsolete, because a new one will have come out.

    Yes its adaptive AA causing the issue, however I dont get this problem with 5850 in NTW, only with my older 4800 in ETW.
