Rivenspire visual glitch in sky.

I have only seen myself refer to this but I have not had problems in other areas or games.

When I get close enough for the red beam/lightning to show, hundreds of squares show up and move toward the centre of the mountain and it is massively ugly/distracting.

GPU is 7970, settings in game and panel are high.

Just wondering what it could be, looks like the kind of masking error I have seen on low spec graphic cards in the past when loading too many transparent objects but I severely doubt a 7970 would struggle with this.

    I've seen this every now and then (also in Rivenspire) with my old Windows installation that was using DirectX 9, but not anymore using DirectX 11. I assume you have at least Windows 7 which uses DX 11, so you might want to check your usersettings file (Documents/Elder Scrolls Online/live/usersettings.txt) to see if the line "SET GraphicsDriver.7 "D3D11"" is set to 9 instead of 11 ("SET GraphicsDriver.7 "D3D9"). If it is, change the 9 to 11. I hope this helps :)

    It is set to D3D11 already, but that was a good suggestion. I do have Windows 7 and have tried two different 7970 cards, Direct X is definitely up to date as is NET framework etc.
