All the patches are commulative i am pretty sure(ask hansolo) so you only need one ,remove the patch 5.01. I sometimes get the graphic glitch too but only in ports. It fixes if you go to control room and again to conning tower

I’ll try to remove 5.01.

What is strange is first patrol i didn’t have this at all.
Second patrol, i get this more and more.
I thought my graphic card was heating, but after control, it’s not. Temperature is normal.

Ok, 5.1 is not needed for game.
Works fine with 5.0 and 5.2 on top.

But my weird graphical glitch is still there, and every time now...
To avoid it, I have to transit by control room each time i want to go to deck view

Tried plenty different settings, even everything on low, even without WAC crew folder...no joy.
Driving me mad, i deleted everything, and will be back on GWX.

Fifi,

You are trying a wac5.2 test version. It is not the definitiv wac5.2 patch...
Testing need time, patience and persistence. :-)
And this video problem (beautiful Rio carnival crew lol) can perhaps come from your personnal nvidia settings too.

In WAC5, there are so many interesting things and great stuff besides that in GWX3, that it is a shame to give up :-)

Hi all
i had this glitch before 5.02 was out. I think that is a video card issue-or video card settings


cheers

Guys, it can’t be a video card problem.
I reinstalled GWX fully modded, it’s running very fine without any visual issue nor CTDs with exact same video settings.
I have this issue only with WAC, and i’m Sorry for that.
It could be a memory issue though...but my GWX is quite heavy too !

I think i will wait for official 5.2 release. Maybe all my problems would be solved...

I think it is a know incompatibility issue between the buggy SHIII shadows (disabled by default with patch 1.4b) and normal maps used on crew models.

And can i do something to solve it?
Could it be also related to volumetric clouds WAC have?
It could be linked to an external environment (always on deck but never other place) that my GC doesn’t like...

The strange thing is it didn’t affect the game at first, but sometime later on second or third patrol, not that often at start but suddenly more and more to the point at each time i go on deck

You should ask Hans, but provided that my guess is correct, I am afraid that the one solution would be disabling the dynamic shadows (as in unmodded SHIII v1.4b). Try reading this thread:

That's odd indeed. Might it be because of a weather/season change from your first patrol?

Incredible...

My computer has 2 drives, one SSD and one traditional mechanic.
I made a full reinstall this time not on the SSD but on the other one, and result is good!!!
(Exact same installation, same mods order)

So far no graphical issue, and i even have splendid sun back!!
I had the golf ball sun on the SSD with the same settings

I am definitely a computer’s mysteries subscriber and don’t understand lot of strange thing happening sometime...

Anyway i keep my fingers crossed, and see if everything keeps going well along the patrols coming

Whatever the problem was, I am glad that now it is gone
