A few bugs with newest AMD Rage driver

Post » Mon May 14, 2012 3:58 am

So far the game is working perfectly but I have found a few bugs with the AMD drivers.

Occasionally some objects in the game flicker or disappear for a frame or two. I first saw it happen to the bandit car you pass after you exit the Ark.

When I went back to the Ghost hideout my guns started flickering to black. And the revolver chamber on the pistol as well as the shotgun cartridge (both used during reload animation) started floating outside of the gun up to the top right.

Found another bug. I just entered Wellspring and I noticed that the NPC Rajko is flickering/glitching really bad.

I have the same exact issue. They're getting closer but they're not quite there yet.

This just started happening to me to. All was well, ugly, but well. Then the game crashed for no reason and now I get constant texture flickering in my character and my weapons. I really can't play it like this :(

I was unable to start the game at all until I updated to the AMD Rage Performance Driver. Afterward, I can play the game and it looks great, but I am seeing most of the same glitches described here plus a couple extra.

1. Rapid, consistent frame flickers on/around the guards' entire bodies in Wellspring.
2. Ammunition (clips, pistol speedloaders) floating and flickering nearby the weapon.
3. Bad horizontal screen tearing (Cured by turning 'Vertical Refresh' to 'Always On' in the Catalyst Control Center).
4. I was unable to enter the 'Wasteland Garage' until a mission took me there despite having the 'E-Activate' option lit to enter. If I attempted to it flipped to a loading screen, hung, and eventually crashed out. I had no problems after accepting the mission.
5. There were several times when fighting bandits outside near Wastland Garage where is was really hard to see them due to bad animation glitching. They would crouch behind cover and I could see 2-3 different variations of their body position rapidly flickering around them. I swear he looked like an Agent from the Matrix bullet-dodging.

Aside from the Wastland Garage crash and the consistent frame and animation flickering this appears to be a fantastic game. I can't wait to gear my buggy out and get into it with the Authority, but I'm pretty disappointed so far in these technical issues. Please get these issues fixed, as it is not on my end. Computer Science is my earned degree. The repair, function, and troubleshooting of them is my field. I keep my system fully up to date; specs below if interested. Thanks.

I can confirm the flickering seems to happen to everyone in Wellspring depending on how close/far the camera is.
