Amnesia TDD Graphics/Texture/FPS Issues! Plox Help!

**kiwiGustav** · 05-26-2013, 04:20 PM

Hello So I've been having issues with Amnesia The Dark Descent Demo on steam. I've looked at the trouble shooting guides and all, I have ATI card, and I installed the latest Catalyst Driver (beta 13.5).

The problem is the graphics. It's as if the walls and floor are moving and trying to eat me,they are ripping apart, tearing (v-synch enabled) and even when I look to an angle of a chair for example, the floor texture comes up and overlaps the chair.. this happens when I move around, move camera, etc. (video of what it looked like : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0teFcQ4n6Ns)

I managed to fix the hungry walls and floor, but now I have like a black shadowy thing that covers my screen now and then, and my fps is really shitty.

Any ideas. I checked my openGL version, and it is above what is needed, I ran a scan on canyourunit and I passed fully for the requirements of the game.

Any ideas?

I'm sorry to tell you this, but ATI Radeon Xpress 1200 Series IS NOT supported.

The game loads up perfectly fine though? the fps is fine, but the graphics are tearing D:

Try the latest stable catalyst, not a beta one.

Hi, I did what you said and installed 13.4 and re-booted, no luck though. It's still the same. (shown in video) I have Catalyst Control Center Installed, if it interferes with anything I don't know. The floor and walls just jump out of position and come towards me, ruining everything. I also noticed a faint pink shadow behind props, any other ideas?

1) Try a clean driver reinstallation as mentioned HERE , Question 3.
2) After the clean reinstallation, go to Documents and delete the Amnesia folder.
3) Do a file integrity check via steam and try the game again.

The X1200 should, in theory, barely be supported but again AMD tends to break backwards compatibility from time to time as newer drivers are released.

I uninstalled them and reinstalled via Device manager, and now it says I have Ati Radeon Xpress 1250, so it's gone up a level?
I'm not sure.

Although, unfortunately it didn't work after doing what you said. Sad

Not via the device manager. Download the latest drivers from AMD.com. Also, make sure all graphical settings are set to the lowest possible.
