@ChelleJo the black squares , You just change shadows to med rather than high to get rid of the black box. I did not have to change any files but I'm on windows 8.1. I don't know if the same method works on windows 10

@phoebebebe13 just changing the settings in game did not fix it for me. I tried medium and low. In the files, they all showed as high in the file (sgr file, maybe?) , so I had to change them all to low.

@ChelleJo Interesting . Maybe it's a windows 10 issue? Or a newer windows 10 update? We have had a few who have had windows update issues with TS3 and 4 but not all people have it. Wonder if a windows update could effect some with the black box issue?

@Writin_Reg do you have windows 10 and did changing shadows to med get rid of your box.? Just curious

@phoebebebe13 It could be. I had an issue with RTSS with one of the windows 10 updates, that I don't think too many others had. But that was some time back, when I still was running AMD GPU.

@ChelleJo someone had issue a few weeks ago with a windows 10 update. They had to keep uninstalling it to play TS3 only to have the update come back. Someone else posted they had the same issue. They are the only two people I had seen with this issue so I do wonder if there was something else on their computer that did not mix with the windows 10 update. It's strange when some people have issues and others don't .I blocked windows 10 from updating on my windows 8 computer and I'm glad i did. I don't like windows 8 but I do not like windows 10 forced updates that are hard to remove "IF" they even can be removed. Windows 8 has the option to stop or remove updates
