New video card - not rendering PR in-game terrain

[Fir3w411]

Okay so yesterday I got a new video card, a GTX 550 Ti. I hooked it up, and ran everything just fine including PR. This morning I started PR and first thing I see it the terrain isn't rendering, I've had this problem before so I just thought it'd be fixed if I restarted. It didn't.

All the terrain is not rendered, most effects aswell. Here is a video I just recorded of this.



I also found that throwing a grenade, once it goes off the game goes completely normal for about a good 5 seconds, then right back to this. Also, as you may have noted in the video, if you zoom in with the weapon it's all rendered again.

I've tried: Restarting PR, clearing shader cache, restarting PC, reseating my video card in the slot. None of this works.

I don't know if this is a PR issue or my video card, the card is brand new, and I played PR just fine with it yesterday.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

It's been ages since I've seen this bug.

Try this:

Change your graphics settings to put Multi sampling to maximum, delete your shader cache and have it recompile. Probably won't do anything but I recall the fix being something to do with the AA settings

Yes that works, thanks so much.

This has happened in Saaremaa before and it's completely random.
