Are you any closer to identifying what's going wrong with all these reports of graphics problems?


In most cases it's AMD.

Those who have similar issues on an AMD system please post the model here, so I can decide which AMD to buy and try to fix the issues.


I and at least one other person ...

Just to update that I saw the patch notes say something about graphical fixes, but I'm still getting the luminous boxes for smoke/dust/muzzle and the flickering graphics when I use SSAO and Processing.

A replay feature would be brilliant in many ways…

1/ There’s so much going on in the bigger battles, sometimes the log comes alive with stuff getting blown up and it would be great to be able to rewind and watch what happened.

2/ for the WEGO option, a replay function ala Combat Mission would be ...

It would be nice to have the option to render shadows further out as they pop in quite noticeably at short range.

Gotcha... There's a PDF manual available in the downloads section of your account on the Matrix site and there's a list of key commands on page 62 that you could print.

You may know this, but there's a list of hotkeys in game. Click the icon top left that looks like a keyboard and it brings up a list of all the key commands.

Well it looks and plays ok with SSAO and Processing off, but I'd prefer to have them on if they give nicer graphics. Perhaps we'll see if anyone else with Arc graphics have similar problems and if I can send you any info to help track this down I'd be glad to.

And another quick request before I turn in for the night.

Would it be possible to have trees go see-through when zoomed in close as currently it's really difficult to see units in trees.

I've played for probably about 3 hours tonight and thoroughly enjoyed the game. So much is really well thought ...

It would also be great to have a keyboard key that centres and zooms to the selected unit.
Also, a keypress that recentres the map on the top down view (same function as clicking on compass).
And also if a unit is selected in the camera view, can clicking next and previous centre on the next unit ...

Ah, thanks. I did that and still getting the flickering and square boxes so I think it must have already been using the dedicated graphics.

The laptop has both. Can you advise how I make sure it's using the dedicated (arc) graphics card?

I didn't have AB 1, so this is all new to me, but after an hour of playing what I'd most like to see if zoom to cursor. There are other aspects of navigating around the map that are a bit cumbersome, but zoom to cursor would really help out a lot.

Really enjoying the game so far though. It reminds ...

Replying to myself for info... turning off SSAO gets rid of the flickering and turning off post processing gets rid of the square boxes... so at least I can play without it looking terrible.

Hi, just downloaded and game looks great. However I'm getting a lot of flickering textures. This seems to mostly go if I deselect SSAO. I'm also getting square explosion boxes for weapon fire. They don't look so bad in the distance but close up they look terrible. I'm playing on an 13th Gen i5 with ...

I might buy it, but what's putting me off so far is that it appears the maps are just the size of one ASL board? Is that the case? If so that does put me off. I used to play games with 8-10 boards (probably never finished them to be fair!) Can someone confirm the max map size?

Pink goes out.

I hope this help you.

Thank you! Setting the direct draw fixed it - I didn't need to use the windowed mode

I can't patch anything when I have no idea what is causing the issue. And if it's happening because of some setting on your video card then I probably can't help at all.

I need answers:
1. What does it look like right after installing the game before patching? You shouldn't have to monkey with ...

I am having the same issue. I tried using DXWnd but first had an error about no screen modes. Reinstalled and tried again and now when I click btr, I get some accessing and then nothing.

There is a similar issue with WitP AE, although that seems fixable with some amendments to the shortcut ...

Its strange that WASD works on the battle map but not the strategic map
