NTW invisible units at medium distances

Hi there - I am having a problem with units being invisible on the battle map at medium distances. As I move in closer, the soldiers appear 1 by 1, and at close range everything is fine. This situation happens in about 50% of the game loads. I have changed in-game graphic settings, but it hasn't cleared up the problem.

my specs:
i7 2.6 quad
Windows7 64-bit
6 gig RAM
Sapphire 5970 2gig vid card (drivers updated)
DirectX 11

If anyone has any insight or suggestions it would be greatly appreciated!

cheers,

Nanny

It sounds like LOD/sprites and loading distances.
The last imte I read, there is no fix from CA/Sega's end. Your only hope is updated drivers, and play with the settings.

Thanks mate This isn't good news, but it saves me alot of trouble looking for a solution, if I know there isn't one.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

This better not effect your vids !

Did this only recently start happening for you?

They are using camouflage nanny, now aside that have you verified the cache?

Hi have the exact same problem and the same card as u along with a similar rig, what i have found is that u have to fiddle around with the settings in the catalyst control centre. I find adjusting the AI and minimap quality to solve it, it takes a little time but its worth it.

I have solved the problem...it seems the latest driver updates DO fix the problem (10.6 CC), but what happened is that I did not thoroughly enough delete the old drivers. I had to get another piece of software amnd boot in safe mode, to completely eliminate all remnants of older driver versions. However, since doing this, the problem disappeared, and no more invisible units! !!

Following that, I committed another error that caused me great angst. In properly updating the driver, my game was then performing very very poorly (low fps). Deleting the cache (the folder containing the scripts and preferences) solved that problem...a rookie error, but hopefully this will serve as a reminder to anyone else in the same boat. (thanks MM for reminding me of this)

Thanks everyone for taking the time for suggestions, and rep has been duly distributed!
