Default Big Problem!

Hello everyone.
I have a big problem with my SH3.
This started happening about a week ago but i was on vacation so i couldent do anything about it for a while.

I was starting a new game so i made it with SH3 commander.
I start up the game, go through the enormous loading screens and whatnot.
I start inside the boat, go directly to the bridge and everything has a blurry rainbow tint and all the words at the bottom are blurred. it only happens outside of the boat and not inside. i tried uninstalling some mods but still nothing. its really annoying because the game is pretty much unplayable.
Any help is appreciated.

check and see if you running in 16bit or 32bit and see what's going on with your graphics card.

Try reverting back to the previous driver and see if there is any improvement.

You might not have enough ram in your video card to run commander. That's why I can't run commander and some other big stuff.

Not sure what your OS is but either way go to your control panel and select device manager then display adaptors, double click on your graphics card and select the driver tab.....the options to revert etc. are there.
