Slitherine

I bought the game which was updated to 1.06.
When I use the zoom-in, the screen becomes unstable with comments that flash continuously and various shapes that appear/disappear and flash continuously.
The issue occurs as well after the launch on the Pyrrhus scenario or that on the Grand Campaign.
Once I get back to the initial panel, the issue continues.
My monitor works in 1920 x 1080.
Has anyone had this problem?

I had a similar problem with strange shapes appearing. Try verifying the integrity of your game files on Steam.

I'm not on Steam.
The game is fully loaded on my PC.
I uninstalled it and reinstalled it. The issue is still there.
The game is not playable as is
Anyone have a solution?

without the required information, it's guesswork tbh

https://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewto ... 60&t=92667

so a report first, then as much detail as possible

as the report will mention what hardware and what version and build number your windows version is, but won't mention anything that can or could alter the game program from working correctly

Thanks zakblood!

DxDiag and MSinfo files are ready.
Do you want the save file? It is 2974 Ko.
With www.wetransfer.com, to which mail address should I send them?

no mail address, you can just post the link here so we can grab and download the file and data

or just post the DxDiag for now if that's ok and then if needed will ask again for the other, thanks

once the reports or save games are found and ready, please zip them up and attach them to your post, thanks

zakblood,

Here is the link: https://we.tl/t-JTI7nlXN5L

You should update your video drivers for a start, they appear to be nearly 8 years old

Cheers

there's 4 sets of driver updates here in the link, pick the one which the motherboard supports, which you can find by finding the motherboard maker then it will say what version is yours, good luck as it may still not work, as you don't have a dedicated card, only a onboard CPU / GPU addon

Thanks!
Surprising.
I have made updates to my graphics card but not with intel and realtek...
Okay, I'll see that and tell you if it works.

ok good luck, your report doesn't mention a card tbh, only the onboard

Updates have been made. No improvement.
Then I decided to launch the game directly with the graphics processor (Nvidia) and it finally works correctly (at least on the screen).
Fog Empires is like a flight simulator (on my PC which is getting older) that seems to be ''greedy'' in graphic resources!
Thank you for helping me.

glad your sorted and can now enjoy the game
