I'd hope by now that I illustrated the fact that I'm an idiot! Thanks for the clarification; I was just going by the release of the stable version.Capostrophic wrote: ↑12 May 2019, 23:10 That wouldn't be 44 days. That would be 186 days. 0.45.0 wasn't "finished" the day it was released.
May be related to this bug. Usually happens on Intel videocards, but it is a quite old bug.ValkyrWarrior wrote: ↑13 May 2019, 04:03 I may have found out where the issue stems: VSync. I can't believe I thought about it sooner, but disabling VSync fixed the issue entirely. Might be worth investigating; I'll consider submitting an official bug report in the next few hours.
That's almost exactly what the graphical glitches looked like. Not exactly, but the concept is there; black and white terrain aberrations.akortunov wrote: ↑13 May 2019, 04:47May be related to this bug.

Old AMD drivers are notoriously bad. Hard to say what you are running since Windows did it for you. And even if it's an updated driver, it might be selecting a legacy code path to support an older card.ValkyrWarrior wrote: ↑13 May 2019, 04:55 my graphics card is an AMD card: HD6670, dated around Q2/Q3 2011.
I'm ordering an APU this month; the integrated graphics card in it is leagues better than what I have now and it's super affordable for me. I can't really afford expensive GPUs.raevol wrote: ↑13 May 2019, 06:03Old AMD drivers are notoriously bad. Hard to say what you are running since Windows did it for you.

Sorry, I know this isn't very helpful, but ... yea. You might try a different graphics card if you can. I may be wrong though, so don't throw money away based on my word.
