    Does anyone have an idea whats going on here ?


    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 




    Been having this problem for well since i got Napoleon just never got on my nerves as much but now it does.

    As you can see the image is off the background has some kind of pixels of such and also if i scrolls to a unit wearing black the same effect is on that i believe.


    Has anyone got any ideas ?


    The biggest problem is im not even sure how to get rid of it.

    Same problem on empire but not on medieval 2 or shogun very strange.

    Your have your brightness/gamma settings too high. Dark textures revert to the darkest your screen can display giving the jagged look. Night mod does accentuate that rather as its all dark .

    Hi there.
    Have you updated anything related to graphics lately? Drivers, dx or even hardware? If you have, try to Defragment Cache Files and then Verify Integrity of Game Cache (done under Steam/Napoleon/Properties).
