Please help me remove seams in the water

Reverie · 05-20-11, 09:58 AM

The video card is the GeForce 9800 GT PCI Express x16, 512 MB.
The seams, or panes, are lines passing by around ships moving through the water; these panes of water also pass by around the boat.

The NVIDIA Control Panel offers education in what the individual settings effect, but sadly I am not getting the know-how on removing the seam problem.

More an irritation, it definitely bottoms out the visual experience.

One further note: it only occurs in moderately rough to stormy seas.

Thank you.

The first thing I do with Nvidia cards when I have video trouble is rollback to the previous driver. For some reason, Nvidia driver "features" seem to skip generations.

If anti-aliasing is off, you may want to turn it on though it is a RAM hog.

More system or video ram is never a bad thing as well.
