Okay. so I noticed on certain lots and in certain worlds, some of the plants turn up funky colors. Its only certain plants doing this.I really hope its not a dying graphics card. https://pastebin.c...
@graceymanors So, I missed the edit to your original question because I was typing a response. (Dealing with HTML still takes some time for me.) If a clean folder fixes the problem, then it's in all likelihood one of your mods. I would start by removing any lighting mods you have and go from there.
Also, can you access the Nvidia Control Panel now? It won't show up unless you have a graphics card driver installed, which is why you may not have been able to see it after the reset.
@graceymanors The first thing to do is to check your deviceconfig to make sure TS3 is using your 1050 ti, not the integrated chip. But if it is using the Nvidia, and given the errors in your dxdiag, as well as the weirdness with the plants, it's a good idea to do a clean uninstall and reinstall of your graphics card driver. Here's how:
First, download Display Driver Uninstaller from here:
Next, take your computer completely offline—disable wifi and/or pull the ethernet cord—and double-click the DDU.exe. Take note of where the file will land, and click Extract. If it's easier, you can copy the path and then paste it into the address bar in a File Explorer window. Open the folder and then Display Driver Uninstaller.exe, and you'll get a message that you're not in Safe Mode. Click OK, then go to Options and enable Safe Mode dialog. Here's a screenshot of what your options should look like:
Close options, and the DDU, and then open the DDU.exe again. For launch options, choose "Safe Mode (Recommended)," and then click Reboot to Safe Mode (you'll need your password, so find it before rebooting). Once you login, you'll see this:
Choose GPU in the dropdown menu (step one), then Nvidia (step 2) if it's not already showing. Then click Clean and Restart (step 3).
Once your computer has rebooted, now back in normal mode, run the driver install .exe in custom mode. Select "perform a clean installation" and install ONLY the GPU driver, the sound driver, and the PHYSX software. Reboot again and see whether the plants look any better.
If this doesn't help, let me know, and I'll explain how to get some more specific data on how your card is behaving.
