See through glitch..

[Ahmed85]

Hello there,

I have a problem with Soma and I hope you can help me. The walls in the game disappears and reappears and I can see through them. I tried reinstalling the game again but the problem is still there.
This is how it looks like http://youtu.be/efsPBLpig-w (on the video the problem appears at minute 1, while it is consistent with me.
I'm using an Alienware, so I presume my laptop can handle it. I really wish you can help me and in full details.

Much appreciated.

Ahmed

1. What GPU do you have?
2. Are your GPU drivers to date?
3. Make sure to take a look here

My GPU is Nvidia Gforce. I played Daying Light recently (which needs a strong laptop to work on) it worked fine.

I saw the link but I didn't find anything that helps

1) PRetty sure your drivers are out of date. Try making a clean install (first uninstalling the old ones)

2) Your resolution is set to 320x200 which is unplayable. Go to My Documents/My Games/SOMA/Main/ and delte [steam_id]_user_settings.cfg

Now try and start the game again

I've done what you said twice. It didn't work. And as for my driver, I don't believe it's out dated, just recently I played Dying light. I did reduce the resolution a little, but still it ran perfectly.

What else can I do?

You have to update the driver by downloading and installing the latest from intel.com. If you have troubles, follow this guide https://www.frictionalgames.com/forum/th...#pid277038

This actually worked. I owe you one. Thanks, mate.
