Strange textures and "river stripes"

I can confirm this. I did raise land detail and the river stripes are now only rarely seen.

Raising all graphic settings doesnt seem to help with the three blue horizon stripes though.

Looks like the entire skydome or haze on the horizon is just rendered a bit higher up then on a nvidia card or something.

Really hope something can be done about this bug.

Agreed, the graphics problems on ATi cards are very annoying. It looks like everyone has them. With luck the devs will fix it quickly. In the meantime, I am slightly regretting buying my 6970 because of these problems.

I'd like to join the group of "stripe victims" ...

As an ATI GFX card user I'm very disappointed about the fact that I don't have any real influence on the in-game GFX settings via CCC.

Here're my PC's specs...

• Win7 64bit
• Gigabyte GA-MA790XT-UD4P mobo
• AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 955 Processor (4 CPUs), ~3.2GHz
• Corsair DIMM 4 GB DDR3-1333 Kit
• Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4870 Vapor-X GFX card 1GB GDDR5

Does it mean nVidia does not have the river stripes?

Yes I see them at certain angles, have also seen water tiles speckled on mountains in the multiplayer DF missions, but they are junk anyway.

I have tried many graphics settings and it did not matter if it was on high, med or low, still there

Yup I see the stripes. I think the technical term for it is z-fighting where texture layers try to appear ontop of one another because they are too close together.

S!

Well, the AMD can do nothing about it if they do not know about it. So the easy way to get their attention is via Driver Feedback Form found HERE. I also wish devs would comment on this as well.
