I've found a temporary fix for this issue, assuming you have a DX11 compatible card.
I had actually set my game to DX9 to test out SMAA (still doesn't work), and was surprised to find forcing it to DX11 in UserSettings seems to fix it.

• Navigate to " C:\Users\YOURUSER\Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live" (or liveeu if you play on EU megaserver)
• open "UserSettings.txt"
• search (Crtl+F) for "SET GraphicsDriver.7"
• change D3D9 to D3D11

If your card is not DX11 compatible you can also try "OpenGL" but, at least on my system, it takes a massive performance hit.

that did the trick for me. I had to turn off compatibility mode but once that was off d3d11 in the usersettings.txt fixed the invisible 'transparant npc/player' and the wierd effects blockout portions of the screen that others have.

I'm running windows 7, dx11, driver updated nvidia 560 ti (dx11 compatible). I had previously put the launcher and eso.exe in compatibility mode for windows xp to fix an issue in the first 2 weeks of the game and hadn't had any issues until this recent craglorn patch (1.1.2?). Turning off compatibility mode and editing the my usersettings.txt fixed this graphical glitch for me.

The only thing I changed per CS is 3D power management to max performance instead of adaptive.

Nope I could run the game file set on DX9 with no crashes at all. Whatever they changed in 1.1.2 that caused DX9 to stop working is the issue.

Still bugged esh. This entire quest line I am doing is nothing but ghosts and projections. So much fun fighting things I cannot see. Well just gonna look at it as added challenge and smile. What else can I do?

This concerns me simply because of the wording. I did not choose to use DX9. This was something forced by patch 1.1.2. I really hope that the fix is for whatever caused the initial change.

DX9 Ghost's issue fixed with patch 1.1.3

Thank you ZOS,
keep up the good work!

That is good news for the many people impacted by this. I have not had a chance to test yet, but did exclusive full screen support slip in for DX9 as well?

This concerns me simply because i play ESO with stereo3D (3Dvision) and that needs DX9 to work good (with the now perfect The Elder Scrolls Online - 3D Vision Fix (UPDATE) by mike_ar69)

ENJOY !

@Ghanth‌, I agree completely. I also use that outstanding 3D Vision fix but had stopped using it during this issue. They really need to have a proper DX9/DX11/OGL toggle in the settings rather than in the INI file because I believe some people think they are using DX11 when they are actually using DX9. I say this because of some people insisting they had the ghost problem with DX11.

Also, when @ZOS_JessicaFolsom‌ encourages everyone to use DX11 unless they are using Windows XP she overlooks those that might be running Windows 7 or 8 but with an older graphics card that does not support DX11. I know they have been out for a while now but I bet there is still a number of people out there in this boat. I have seen the backlash from recent games that require DX11 such as Ghosts and Tropico 5 with people who saw that they had DX11 software installed but did not understand that they card did not support it.

Finally with little visual difference (if any) between DX9 and DX11 in this game, I am not sure why they are pushing us to use DX11.
