Terrain rendering issues since Homestead

Ajaxduo

Anyone else having an issue with the ground textures not loading correctly? It's like the ground within a few feet of me doesn't load until I'm standing on top of it. My view distance is all the way up but NPC's, players, objects even enemies are randomly taking a long time to load and show up as well. As a result of this it is causing fps drops and poor performance, I've tried repairing, resetting settings to default and so on but nothing changes. Are the Dev's aware of this? @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom ?

That happens when things are loading slower than you're traveling. It happens very frequently in densely populated zones or when you're riding through the wilderness on a mount too quickly. If it's slow enough, you'll even get a pseudo loading screen when you enter a new cell that freezes your character model in place, even mid-jump.

You can probably attribute it to the surge of players (patch week) playing in those more common areas, like Belkarth, the main cities, and anywhere along the route for the quest to get the free apartment.

I noticed this in Glenumbra last night. Running or riding down the road, hit an "invisible wall" and the textures all blur to a low resolution.

I'm not looking forward to this hitting consoles.....we've had that issue for over a year in mostly dlc zones tho not everywhere however it's becoming more apparent in all major towns after One Tamriel

Yeah I've noticed the slow loading in regards to NPC's popping in, everything else loads as normal but the ground doesn't load at all until I'm standing ontop of it. It's so jarring visually.

This is a console example of what's happening on PC. Mind you this happens in almost all towns now

.ini settings were reset after this patch. You need to change your "SET_MIP_LOAD_SKIP" setting to -3.

Mine weren't reset

Any ideas on how I can fix this?

I have noticed weird texture issues now as well. Have some screenshots I will post when I get home. Have to keep resetting settings to default then customize again.

Ajaxduo

I'm crashing frequently to, all addons disabled etc. Is there a fix for this coming?

I noticed last night when I'm unmounted, I'll get stuck in the ground and have to jump to get above ground. Very annoying

Here are the screenshots as promised...

I've been seeing more flickering of textures like z-fighting where textures are layered too close. This isn't all the time but is pretty distracting when it happens.

Draconerus

Yeah. I have to reset as default then reconfigure often

Cavedog

Big time.....and I disabled grass and blooms in my UI and am still getting the rendering problem big time, especially in cyrodiil.

I've tried resetting my usersettings.txt, my general settings and repairing the game. Nothing seems to fix this rendering issue.
