Probably gonna try and reinstall all sorts of different drivers..

Did you upgrade your graphics drivers after the wipe?

Yeah I forgot to mention that I installed the new Nvidia driver 347.25 today and I didn't notice any immediate changes to it looking like it did before the wipe.

Hello there, if you have seen anything similar I have posted before you will have noticed I am having horrible luck with my GPU. I recently had to wipe my hard drive, and after I had done that I reinstalled some games. I turned all my settings up, then turned on DSR to 4.00x. The native resolution that I have which is 1680x1020 to fit the format in my games at 3360x2100. I started playing one of my Favorite games Far Cry 3, but the graphics looked terrible towards the way they used to look before I wiped my hard drive. It seems like just wiping my computer caused the problem at least in my knowledge. I hope someone can relate and help me with this issue I am facing.

Hang on, aren't you the one that was complaining about some vague lines or something and no one could see them in the screenshots you posted?  Or was that someone else?

 

If it was you, plz video.

Sorry for the super long reply been super busy. I am not entirely sure how to take a video while in-game but I was wondering if one of you who have the same graphics card as me could make a video on it so I can see. 

Inno 3D Geforce GTX970 , driver version 344.75

no issues in both Jamp and Jasp

Hello, I recently posted a thread talking about how my new Geforce gtx 970 was not compatible with JA's graphics. Just wondering if anyone has the same card as me, or a more recent card made by the same company. I just wanted to know exactly what type of drivers they currently have for their card and if it is working great with JA. 

I don't know what else there is left to do to fix this issue I'm having. Ensiform if you know any other possible way please tell me.

I could always install OLDER drivers somebody said that could help.

Thats a zero not an o btw.

Yeah man I noticed, and I checked it said it is currently on 0 default is 1.

Dang it didn't work  

Nevermind about the run error just reset defaults.

Looks like you have a lot of other issues going on there too.

 

Not sure what you are trying to do with "run" or what it is.

 

cl_run is the auto run cvar. 1 being default to auto run afaik.

 

+speed is the command to do the opposite (walk if auto run, or run if auto run is off)

 

bind shift +speed

Yeah I installed that run and walk script file and thought it was useless. I tried to delete everything but it would still give me that error. About the r_compressed_textures how would I turn that off?

Hmmm, I don't think condump was added to SP by OpenJK... O.o  I'll look.

 

Edit: No it was not added by OpenJK, was in retail JASP exe.  Did you try without using the '/' ?

Yup it was the / that did it. Here you go  http://pastebin.com/WzpQS0hx

/condump console.txt

 

will create a text file called "console.txt" that will give us a text log of technical information ensi is looking for to help you.  Just copy and paste that text to pastebin or something similar.

typed that in and it still said it was an unknown command. Searched for console.txt couldn't be found either. I hope I'm not sounding like a noob here

No I want to see the full text log.

 

Use the condump command.

 

something like condump console.txt

Having trouble with that actually. Could you explain it with more context I tried typing in codump in the cheat console, but it didn't do anything.

Could you provide a console log from after the map loads?

 

Use code tags or something.

Is this what you mean? 

Can you check that you have anisotropic filtering set to max (16)? Should be able to find it in the game menu ("more video" I think?)

 

Can you post a screenshot of where you set the antialiasing settings in your graphics card's control panel?

I got the anisotropic filtering bar all the way up in the game if that's what you're saying. Here is a pic of my global settings on my control panel. 

Yeah that's some of the stuff that looks pretty bad texture wise. The jagged lines however show through a lot of my maps, but this particular map shows the problem the most.

It looks great to me? I still don't understand. 

 

 

 

 

This is backwards. If anything, it would make it look worse, but nope, Dropbox doesn't compress or change anything.

Man I wish you could be alongside me seeing what it actually looks like. All the images and textures blur out in jagged stretch lines, and it makes for a unpleasant gameplay. I may be using OpenJk wrong, since I don't really see much of a difference

I hope you guys feel me, and can relate to a huge graphics downgrade. I may have OCD, but for some purpose of getting paranoid over drastic change.

Here is how a certain map looks with movement while taking a picture(not entirely sure how to take a video of it).

I think dropbox makes the image look more better than it actually is. 

I'm not sure if I should download old drivers, and I also don't know which one would be the right one to download.

Using the older drivers might work, but that's a bit ridiculous since his other games will likely suffer.  Worth a try I suppose since it isn't all that hard to rollback a driver if it doesn't do anything.

 

I believe he said he already tried that...

Are you using OpenJK? It has more sane defaults for modern hardware, which improves visual quality.
If so, try /cvar_restart; vid_restart
If it goes to windowed mode: /r_fullscreen 1; r_mode -2

I never actually used Openjk hope it's not too complicated. I hope what you say is true about how well the visuals look.

I would show a video if I knew how to record in-game, which I have never done before.

Screenshots would help with diagnosing the problem! Make sure you use the /screenshot_tga command or take a print screen and save to a PNG file, so we know the problem isn't lossy artifacts in the image format itself (like JPEG does).

Here's how my graphics used to look

And.. Here is how it looks now..

It actually looks a lot worse in-game then it does in this picture. I hope you can find a solution from what I have given you

Can't seem to get anything to make it work. I never expected it to look amazing, I just wanted it to look similar to the way it did with my old graphics card. I got this new Geforce 970 to run games like Far Cry 4, and actually like you said Crysis 3. I just find it depressing that it looks like it is running on no graphics at all. Is there a possibility it could be certain things I turn on in the control panel that effect it? I turn it all on 16x anti-aliasing and stuff like that, but I put the smoothness on 0% since it says it makes the textures blurrier each time you increase it. I am a graphics freak if I must say so and seeing this takes away the beauty that I see in this game.

I swear nobody ever knows how to solve the problems I post on here  

Hello, I recently upgraded from Radeon to a brand new Asus Geforce 970, and I have had trouble configuring the graphics on JKA. The graphics of the game itself barely changed from when nothing was adjusted, to when everything was turned on at the control panel. All of my drivers are 100% updated, and I have no idea why this is happening. I am completely new to Nvidia and it's features so I may be doing something wrong, it could probably be something more than right clicking and using the Nvidia control panel to change certain aspects. 

Doesn't really count as an upload tbh. it's a port and who hasn't heard of this same exact model too.

It was worth the wait
