Buildings render incorrectly at night causing crash/freeze
New, WishlistPublic

Description

Once in game night is reached, all buildings fail to render properly and are displayed as a mash of colors that flicker as you move. If you avoid looking at them the game does not crash, however when looking at them for more than a second the game locks up.

This is occurring only when I used my dedicated graphics card (AMD RADEON HD 7970M) regardless of video settings. When I set the game to use my laptops on board Intel HD Graphics 4000 chipset, the buildings render fine.

I have been unable to test with other graphics cards. {F29915}

This is apparently an issue with AMD cards using old drivers. Try updating them using this :)
