[posila] [0.17.0] In-game black screen/tracers/Blurry mess

Post by Itlazonix »

All the menus and map previews seem fine, but once I actually load into a map, this happens

If I move, this happens

In this picture I placed down the burner miner. I'm holding the furnace in my hand right over it.

I've tried tweaking all the graphics settings and there doesn't seem to be any fixing it. Resources, like coal and trees, are teeny tiny little sprites and I can move and mine just fine. Cliffs show up just fine. They are just 'overlayed' over the blurred mess. Every once in a while the player character looks fine, other times it just looks like it's his leg that's running around. I'll play with it a little more and see if I can't learn anything new.

This is my old crappy work laptop so it might just be a crappy computer thing. Haven't had a chance to test on my home computer yet. Just figured I'd bring it up. I believe I saw someone on the steam forums with a similar issue.

Update-
Updated the game to 17.1 and the issue persists. Attached is the new log.

Both logfiles attached, wasn't sure what one you'd need. Sorry about that.

I'm having a similar problem, except the sprites actually render properly for me - there may be two different issues here.

For me, the terrain is black when standing still, however it renders properly when the view/player is moving. It strobes on and off while zooming.

Log attached - spams this a lot:
