Is what is being described the z-buffer?

I had issues with this before the last reformat. some parts of the ship would flash a black texture. The problem got worse at some point. I dono much beyond that, but there is a checkbox for something related to the z-buffer in your graphics card control panel. perhaps try a different driver?

Hi !

Now I´m a little bit confused ?

I´ve an nVidia GTX 260 with Driver 260.99 on Win7 64bit 8 GB RAM. What is the best setting in the SH5 Options-Menu: V-Sync on or off ?

Best regards,
Magic

I tested both: for me seems to work better with V-Sync on!

v-sync on is always better as it reduces the 'tearing' effect The human eye only needs 27-30 fps (POV) to interpret single 'slides' as animation.
