@coco Thank you! Hearing that simmers like my videos always gives me a boost. :smile: I'll have a look at the 3D settings and see what I can figure out.
@ScottDemon I use a monitor that's been really good up to now but have a small television I can try out. And I'll have a look at the GSync thing. A new cable? Where?
@puzzlezaddict That is for sure true. I had years of problems sorting out this game and spending lots of money, finally had a couple of smooth years. Guess I got complacent. Thank you for offering to help.
Here's the history:
Everything was fine, then I booted up the game Sunday (I think) and noticed all my options had been reset. I put everything back and got into my game and immediately noticed the pixelation issue. I tried to roll back my graphics card and couldn't, it was grayed out. So then I right clicked on the ts3w link and did troubleshoot compatibility. It booted up the game and it was worse. But I reported to Windows that there was an issue. Since it was Windows I thought if I did a reset (a total pain but worth it to fix this) it would take my computer back to when I first got it. That's what it used to do. But evidently Windows has changed that and when you do a reset it doesn't take the operating system back to when you first got it. So I still have the issues. I'll post the pics and the dxdiag in the next post. Don't know if I'll have time before work but I'll try.
