Pixelated texture on helms (is there an option/setting for this)

[Neptlude]

everytime I came back to orbiter (or relays) the details on the helm looks pixelated. (also happends to equinox) Had to wait a few mins until it becomes sharp again...

Is there something in settings that affects this? Currently running on medium setting.

Have you tried Verifying and Optimizing the game from the launcher any time recently? I'm not certain, but the texture problem might be caused by slow loading of the textures.

Your VRAM is actually the most likely contended to be the issue. Basically what you're seeing is the texture compressed until the GPU is able to render it at a higher resolution.

In other words, you need a more powerful card/computer (in case you use a laptop).

Okay Thanks guys!

No problem.

Just as a note I play on High settings and I also see those usually for a few seconds (or in some cases until I zoom in a bit more). So it's a natural process of the game for everyone -- the more memory you have the better.

Not sure if DE can improve on that without sacrificing texture quality though.

Yeah tried it but still same, guess its my toaster's problem .- .

 

Edit I just noticed it only happens on Tachyon Nova helm.... Other Nova helms load faster... `-`
