Granulation screen

Hello @marsim

- are you run Origin as Admin?

- are you tryed to delete folder C:\Users\[User_name]\Documents\Battlefield 4\?

- are you check that game use the nvidia gpu?

- try to test your gpu with this bench (note max temp, artifacts, freezes and other)

I have tried running it as Admin, even tried compatibility mode, deletedd BF4 folder from Documents, GPU test is stable with no freezes or artifacts. If i run the game in windowed mode, Granulation is not visible, but only if i play in small window. Once i make it bigger, it starts again. I believe it is Graphics problem, but I can not solve what it is, what to set up. I will try to reinstall the game again and see what will come of. 🙂

@marsim try to disable "Cloud synch" and "Origin in game" features for BF4 in Origin

It did not work. I made a video of game launch, so You can see what is actually happening. It is recorded on iPhone, so the quality is not so great, but for this case it should be enough. Here is the link to youtube, I can not upload it here succesfully. https://youtu.be/EDuArKl3v0Q

this is not game, but ingame video, how about gameplay?

Here is a bit of gameplay. I also tried to record the game to show it gets fixed once i start recording and when i stop, after few secs it start again. https://youtu.be/eK8WUsAXJyM

@MADrag0n asked if you are using your Nvidia GPU because being on a laptop they frequently have two GPUs, a normal on board non-peformance GPU and the Performance gaming GPU. I've seen your issue occur when the PC defaults and uses the non-Performance GPU so please check your settings that BF4 is using the GTX960M and not the standard GPU.

Battlefield uses nvidia GPU. Integrated GPU will never run it over 50fps.

1) Check BF4 folder and delete all files (if exist) witch on mask d3d9*.dll, d3d9*.fx, dxgi*.dll, dxgi*.fx, d3d11*.dll, d3d11*.fx, opengl32.dll

Only one file like it should be in there - d3dcompiler_46.dll

2) download this and run/install as Admin.

3) If u use Nvidia Experience, disable it (how: 1, 2, 3).

4) Lets try to trick with game video setting and check if it change some:

a) download, install tool, open Profiles tab, highlight the "Default Settings" profile for BF4 and press "Load Profile";

b) open Settings tab and setup all of u want, then highlight Graphics section and set this:

Motion blur amount - 0

Weapon blur - unchecked

Overall graphics quality - Custom

Anti-aliasing (deferred) - Off

Anti-aliasing (post) - Off

c) in Settings tab, highlight Console section and uncheck four options of DirectX11 and DX;

d) press "Save Settings".

5) Also go to nvidia driver settings - 3D Settings - Program settings - select BF4 and find and edit (set to minimal/disable) similar settings

Try to play and check ur problem (if "Cloud sync" appear - use local data).
