DX10 issues

Post by Constara on Mon Jan 05, 2009 2:04 pm

Does anybody else have problems running DirectX10 in LOTRO? I have a 8800GTX and this is the first time I'm using Vista.

It runs fine for a while but then sometimes I will get these little squiggly lines in the pavement (lol not sure how else to describe it). It's like a graphical glitch and it takes place in multiple spots on the ground. After a restart of the game client it looks normal again. It's just a little annoying that's all.

I run the game at Ultra High settings if that matters.

I've tried it a few times myself and have just stopped worrying about it. I have an ATI 4850 and multiple other kickin' computer things and I have always had problems with running the game in 10. The game wasn't coded for 10. Was actually coded for 9. 10 ability didn't come out for a while and they still don't have it right. And I play crysis and farcry 2 with no issues and both those use 10 like champs.

I run in DX-10 on an 8800GT with no issues at all but I run with a mix of high and very high graphics.

I tried mixing up the graphics settings too. It only delays it for a bit lol. My fiance says it's because my card is old and only has 320 MB instead of 512MB for memory. But I also use 512MB from my system memory using RivaTuner. I'll try to tweak it more a bit later.

Hmm, my card is a 512 mb card. But yours has a better GPU. Interesting.

The fiance says it's because that memory actually matters more than the GPU. It's a hand me down from him so I can't complain. Razz

I was just wondering if there was a quick fix. drunken

I am actually running two cards with a gig, I get them I turned off shadows and they went away. I am sure they have some optimization to do but other than that it runs smooth.
