Often the Textures load only if you are very near

Description

Hello

It happened already before, but since it happens also on the Experimental, i decided to write it here.

When you are walking on the side of a city, f.e. in the wood near a city, and you look at the city you can't see anything 'cause the textures don't load right...

Sometimes if i zoom in it loads it when the zoom shows me the city near.
I append a picture where you can see the 2 cars in Pavlovo where i miss the military base^^

I managed to upload to pics from the same position, one normal 1st Person, and then normally zoomed in...

Hi mist3r,
is this accompanied by FPS drops (game stuttering, lagging) or the textures of your own character/rest of the environment getting glitched?
I am asking because this could be the same issue as #17013, however it seems slightly different.
Thank you,
Andy

hi Andy Thanks for Answer

Not at all, the Fps are quite normal then. Also my Character is fine, the Environment does glitch. The mountains are always changing there texture when they are far away depending on my view angle.

its a bit like this here on 5:30

The Mountains do the same like the house here in the video.

greets mist3r

It's becoming worse in 0.51 stable.
Now i really have to be very very near that i can see the right textures :-/

what are your object/terrain details are set to?
if it's low, try increasing it

always on maximum everything. i upload a picture i took today. a normal house that just looks like it has no texture.

as always, only you and devs can see your attachments, so maybe upload anywhere else...
i have experienced things like missing textures/objects myself, but don't know if it was the same type you had
for me it looked this way (hope you can access those screenshots)

it looks a bit like the sky, but not exactly the same

i was able to fix it, by increasing the texture quality (was very low)

Here look at the right side the container or even the metal house behind the container, the red house right of the church...

edit

here is even worse...
look at the hospital

thx for the screenshots mister
it seems to be, that your game shows the high distance/low quality buildings, instead of the nice ones
they have also a more simple geometry (if someone was in that "hospital" (it's no hospital) behind some window looking at you you wouldn't be able to see him afiak, as the windows you see are only a texture

i've had this problem when i set my object details to a low setting, but as you said you had it set on very high, it should work

i think the problem might have to do with your graphic memory being to full, and the game just replacing some object with a low quality one (even if it would be better to relace some objects that are far away)
i hope they find the cause, or at least changing to dx11 to fix issues like this

The House on the left, rally hardcore...

If you need more to investigate, you can tell me what it should look like a video or so, and i'll try to make one:)

It looks like under certain circumstances the 3gb vram really are full playing at 150% (100% = 1440p) , but when playing 100% I never go ahead 2700Mb, so it's not really full, but the problem is still here... I feel like it's getting worse in big cities like novo or Svetlo, but I guess it's only because there are more houses so, it looks worse.

I'm sorry to tell you that... I was making a nice Video showing many situations of this Low Textur loading bug, but didn't have much time for it...

Yesterday me and my wife played 0.52, I play on everything very high, my wife in low 'cause of the fps.

Both had the same problem... Sometimes houses, stones barracks models of nearly everything disappear when farer than 20m. Then they plop up and change 3 time their Geometry model and the texture... Its one big flickering... No way to play this way, everything that is farer than 20m is changing with every step...

I didn't change a thing on driver, settings or so... so it has to be the patch imho...

i could confirm it with some houses and cars.
For excample this car in Brown:
http://orcz.com/images/thumb/e/e8/Dayzstandalonewreckedcar.jpg/400px-Dayzstandalonewreckedcar.jpg
It it for example near novo on the street comming from Swetlojask.
Or in Cernaya Polana...
I Play on 1980 x 1080 (100%). The texture will be loaded finaly if you are 20m(?) infront of the car

Did you edit any settings in config.ini like scenecomplexity or visibility? Because this might be the problem. Could you check it and report back please?

Hi BluesAdam
No everything is on standard, also the startparameters are on standard without the tweaking suggestions. Only sometime with -window or -dologs but if with or without it doesn't matter, it happens the same way

mist3r added a comment.Jan 6 2015, 2:36 PM

i tried again several things, like downsampling (150%) or try with lower resolution, what changes the amount of used vram like (80%), the vram is then about 2-2.7gb used so it's not really really full, but still the textures don't load... I thought maybe it's because of SLI (even when disabled for DayZ), so i took out one 780 and played with only one in it...

Same Performance, Same problem.

I am waiting for 2 GTX 980 with 4Gb now, should receive them next week, at last in 2 weeks. I will report if the problem persists.
But i don't thing its related to the Vram.

My wife played always on Low setting (GTX 660 nonTI) and had this issue, but she never told me of it, because she thought it was related to the low settings.
now she has one gtx780 inside, and she was surprised, that with everything on High the problem persists. So I think maybe it's a driver problem with Nvidia and DayZ? i will make a new Video with the new cards asap.

Made a Video with one 780.

The Stats of the cards are on it so you can check the Vram usage as the GPU USage. The first 2 minutes show very well what my experience is since some updates

So I played now a couple of hours with the 980s and the problem is still there.
The Vram is certainly not full, but textures that are about 50m away don't load right :-/

Franzuu added a subscriber: Franzuu.May 8 2016, 8:24 PM

did you do any fps tweaks like set scene complexity down to 150 000 from 500 000. I know that that can cause weird textures and models.

mist3r added a comment.Feb 9 2015, 9:56 AM

Hi thanks for your info. No everything is on Standard.
I did a SLI Profile but without this profile I have the same problem

Just for Info, it gets worse with the stable 0.55version, as the Distance where the crappy textures come is even less far than before...

Every building farer than 10m now gets this creepy texture...

Do you really haven't any idea about this?
I tried several configurations now ingame. I didn't change any ini Files, so there should be everything on standard.

Is there anything I can provide to you that you eventually can sort this out?

edit: appended the dxdiag.txt made today.
