Pixelated Shadows during Cutscenes?

I'm working to adjust the drivers now. Would you be able to clarify (if you have any more technical insight) why new drivers are consistently breaking an "old" game? Why hasn't NVIDIA or Bioware been able to get their game to work on capable equipment? If I'm constantly needing to revert my drivers back, when can I update to the latest drivers for all of my other games/applications?
Swtor is based in Directx9Ex and is reliant on the video driver accordingly with Microsoft Directx
There are major driver issues across all 3 makers at present and all different, AMD are the easiest to fix at present, Nvidia are having multiple issues all affecting different hardware in different ways.
860M using Notebook drivers are worst affected at present the driver is still broken for most as an example, edit here
Thank you for that explanation. Although you would think Bioware could optimize their game a bit better for newer technology. Performing clean install of 355.98 now. To clarify it is the setting "Maximum pre-rendered frames" that you would like set to "1" for the program "launcher.exe" that contains the swtor.exe icon in the NVIDIA Control Panel, yes?
The game engine has its issue for sure , I think a lot wish warzones where sorted with the UI etc ...
Yeah in the profile in the NVidia control panel program list , set pre-rendered frames to 1 , having launcher.exe listed should be ok , if not try adding swtor.exe directly
The worst issue at present is a BSOD with Windows 10 with gaming see here
I have a Gigabyte GTX 970 and have been lucky with issues myself under windows 10
