White dots...help.

from Sins Forums

There was a thread a while back that someone posted about these annoying white dots appearing on the edges of in game objects. I never experienced it until I upgraded a new graphics card (GeForce 9500) and now I have them. I know that the only other way to get rid of them is turning anti-aliasing completely off, but that was the last thing I heard, and...I really want AA on so my game can look good. But then....the dots, ugh. I don't get it, there has to be a way to fix it...I never had the problem with my other card, anybody figure anything out?!

 

EDIT: Well, Stardock isn't haven't any luck...even NVIDIA tried to help but couldn't find out anything. There has to be a way to get rid of them and have AA turned on.

Have you contacted support@ironcladgames.com ? It might be a problem they can fix with a future patch or something. Or maybe they can tell you exactly what is wrong. Could be a driver issue. That be my guess. Or a resoultion setting.

 

You could always try reinstalling SINS. Uninstall the game then delete all the folders it may leave and then downloading it again. Sometimes people get weird things from bad downloads.

Well I guess I'll try emailing them then, I know it isn't a driver issue because my old graphics card uses the same driver as this one. And resolution I've always had it at my monitor's max resolution (forget what its called...) and never had the problem before...so maybe it is the bad download....well still, if anybody has any other suggestions lemme know.

 

And what the heck, I'll go ahead and hunt down the thread I was talking about and post it here. The thread also has a couple images displaying the problem, but like Doktor Teufel said (wherever he is right now, lol) you would notice it a lot better during actual gameplay.
