VulcanPyroman.8571 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I was playing wvw after the update and had on several places on the map ground textures disappear: dark voids. Multiple people confirmed the problem in chat. No idea whether it is specific for wvw or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VAHNeunzehnsechundsiebzig. Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) well, whole guild does not see Guild Marks on Flags. AND LoD distance is also broken on them. So there is definetly something fishy going on. Edited March 19 by VAHNeunzehnsechundsiebzig. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Koopa.2354 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 While I don't have OPs problem, wall gate flags in WvW look _very_ suspicious at the moment. They have a checkerboard texture that obviously incorrectly transitions through mipmaps just by moving the camera that don't even seem to be mipmaps (instead the checkerboard texture becomes bigger and smaller). I wonder if that's related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albadaran.1283 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 It happens to me too when playing Tequatl event; grub holes sometimes turn black on the 2nd or 3th defend quest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPandaZoo.8506 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 I've had this for at least a few weeks with the grand exalted chests after Octovine (I think that's their name? The big specical ones). They just appear as a black silhouette. I figured it was just me but maybe not! It definitely predated this weeks patch for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiscan.8345 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Yeah, I've got the same issue with the banners since the latest patch: https://i.imgur.com/iC9VWI8.png 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toraseishin.1932 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 (edited) I also have the checkered banner issue. The stream on in the south-east section of Alpine Borderlands is messed up as well. Strips of green and the waterfalls are totally green. https://imgur.com/jYCLPDc Edited March 20 by Toraseishin.1932 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugeboss.5432 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Seen the chessboard banner issue! Loading into a new map seems to display 95% banners correctly (for a while), but messing about on a wvw map seems to degrade/corrupt the gfx banners after a while (starts displaying chessboard banners instead, until client restart [perhaps mapreload also works]).

Rosenred.2910 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Without a reason, that is the way that flags are showing in WvsW in my pc... Anyone knows how to solve it? https://scontent-mad1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/433647077_10161392697887002_2787541763956174795_n.jpg?_nc_cat=105&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=5f2048&_nc_ohc=md_vKa20k40AX-Bp-8z&_nc_ht=scontent-mad1-1.xx&oh=00_AfBX5QuTuI5DlbRvOfj9gzJ6mL1A0RT-YeBw4hsG-ikHXg&oe=6600603F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelMouse.7345 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 (edited) I have the same issue. The flags have a few checkerboards then the number of checkerboards increase as you get closer to them. Edited March 21 by AngelMouse.7345 Clarification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksome.1697 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Just pitching in that I've had similar texture issues for several months. Asking around, it seems I'm not alone. Lots of people have their mounts become invisible especially during Tequatl, and the grub holes turn all black when that happens, like someone else posted above.

Entara.3075 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 (edited) I to am having the weird checkered banner problem I WvW. My guild mate standing next to me did not so it is not universal. I also commonly get the invisable mount. Most often during the skywatch meta, but other places as well. I tried running the repair tool for the game in case something had been corrupted but had to leave for work before it finished. Will check again tonight.

gaelicvixen.6401 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Glad to know the checkerboard flags aren't indicative of a hardware problem on my end - I'm on a brand new PC Wonder if this issue will ever get a fix though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksome.1697 Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 (edited) @Rubi Bayer.8493 Just wanted to update this one, since it seems it's getting worse by the day. This week I've had textures on mounts, weapons, grub pits, mobs and inventory items (loot) disappear (ie. going invisible or turning completely black losing all textures) during every single Tequatl encounter. Only a full restart of the game fixes it (until the next Tequatl event). Any chance someone could take a look into this?

Tenal.1546 Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 (edited) My apologies if this is a repeat post. Just noticed that some of my weapon skill and utility icons go blank as in literally vanish mainly in the Tequatl encounter. Yes, there have been issues with that event in the past, but this is the first time I have seen any graphic issues occur there for some time. I also notice some player characters partially disappear, and my mount sometimes vanishes which is a known bug I believe in SoTo. I never have these bugs until I go to the Tequatl encounter. They will follow me though. That is when I either just shut down the system for a while or do a system repair for kitten of it. Just wanted to ask if anyone has had any similar issues either there or anywhere around Tyria. If so, perhaps they can be addressed. Thanks.

Mistweaver.7430 Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 After completing the Octovine meta, upon entering the 2nd treasure room proper (the one with the glowing floating bridge{see screenshot}), my screen went mostly black(see screenshot). I could see the UI and the Blish HUD overlay, but all else was black. After feeling my way to the final treasure room, the problem went away as soon as I went underwater.

Your 'screenshots' are 'mostly black' (as in invisible) as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenOrb.5017 Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 So I have been getting those visual artifacts recently, weird graphic flickers, in strikes/fractals. Not always, maybe a few times every other day. Updated drivers, didn't help. I thought it was my GPU dying until I saw it in the video happening a few times. Contacted support, was told to leave a ticket/write a forum post, so hopefully it gets fixed soon. Never had that problem before or in other games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howluffu.7259 Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 I was looking for that. Got same thing with multiple aspects of the game. My mount got that permanent till I was in another zone and the BL UI and wizard vault UI does the same glitchy thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like it's connected, unless it's a coincidence. Issues only happen on my Chrono I believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aenaos.8160 Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 I'm trying to troubleshoot an issue that has only been getting worse. While playing the game, some textures - related to objects, mounts, player/NPC units - will gradually start to bug to the point where the game world will black out and at some point the game will crash. This takes place over prolonged game sessions, upwards of 1 hour. The only effective fix for this is to close and restart the game. Large dynamic events seem to act as accelerators for this bug, especially the Skywatch Archipelago meta is 100% certain to cause this. Observed on PCs with different specs and set ups, Win10 and Win11, Nvidia and AMD GPUs always updated and on the latest available drivers. So far I've tried repairing the game files, deleting and re installing the game, deleting cache files, re installing drivers. I play the game with graphic settings maxed out, 1440p and no add-ons. Is anyone else experiencing similar issues or has an idea on what might be causing this bug? Including link to a few example screenshots. https://imgur.com/a/LDP1xUv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
