Graphics Issues

[cvdonuts]

I wanted to report a non-game-breaking graphics issue I’m seeing on my laptop only, and share what I tried in case it helps anyone else.

Game Version
1.65.51 B

Issue (Laptop only)
Purple halo around selection boxes
Map renders as all green hexes
Desktop runs fine with no visual issues

Systems
Laptop (issue present)
Windows 11 64-bit (24H2)
Intel Core Ultra 7 268V
32 GB RAM
Intel Arc 140V (128 MB VRAM / 16 GB shared)

Desktop (no issues)
Windows 11 64-bit (23H2)
Intel i9-10900
32 GB RAM
Intel UHD Graphics 630 (1 GB)

Troubleshooting
INI changes that partially helped but caused new bugs:
ENFORCE_INI_SETTINGS = 1
WINDOWED = 1
Resolution set to 1900x1200 (resolution of laptop)
VIDEO_USE_SYSTEM_MEMORY = 1

Result: original issue improved, but random graphics appeared in top left corner of info boxes.

INI changes that fixed corruption but broke UI:
USE_3D_HARDWARE_ACCELERATION = 0
USE_3D_FOR_ANIMATIONS = 0

Result: visuals fixed, but fonts became extremely large and fuzzy.

I’ve since reverted back to default 3D settings.

Notes
Issue seems specific to Intel Arc (laptop)
Desktop also uses Intel integrated graphics, but works fine
Possibly related to newer Intel Arc drivers or hardware-accelerated UI rendering

Not a game-breaking bug, but I wanted to make the dev team aware and leave a breadcrumb for anyone else who runs into this.

Happy to provide screenshots, INI files, or system info if needed.

Thanks!

Yes, could you please upload screenshots of what you're seeing? Do you experience these with the base game version of the game at all?
