Strange textures and "river stripes"

[moggel]

Ok, thanks for the tip on how to reduce the river stripes. Like I said: They've been there from the release so it's nothing that's been added by the patches.

How about the repeating distant textures? They arrived with path #1 and remains after #2. Have anyone else experienced them? To me they are far more annoying than the river stripes since they kill the immersion completely.

I'll try updating my video drivers, just for good measure, but the my whole system is a brand new install so I doubt it will do much good. We'll see though...
