Horizontal bars during cutscenes in the Witcher

[jbz7890]

During cutscenes in the Witcher, all of the characters' faces have these really annoying horizontal bars across them. Does anyone know how to fix this?

My PC components are:

ATI 4850 (Catalyst 8.12)
Intell E7200 @ 3.5ghz
4 GB of ram

I'm running at 1440x900 with everything maxed, and my frame rates are fine.

Thanks.

Edit: I'm using Catalyst 9.12.

Edit 2: Vsync didn't make a difference

Try updating your video drivers (unless that's a typo and you really meant 9.12, not 8.12).

Lmao I was thinking the same thing...

Thanks for catching that

Try disabling Catalyst AI.

I just tried it, and it didn't work.

Has anyone here played the witcher with an ATI 48xx card? Did you get the same problem?

Using a 4870x2 and it doesn't happen with me.

Have you tried rolling back a driver?

I think I know what you're talking about. I chalked it up to some weirdness with the engine.

According to: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=12891473&postcount=874 they suggest that blockiness or pixellation during cutscenes is fixable by forcing on Anisotropic Filtering from your video control panel. Having seen it in action, I think this is what you're looking for.

i'm on a Nvidia 8800 gts, and forcing antiroscopic filtering seemed to do the trick.... and i THINK it even fixed the blurriness of background stuff during conversations which a lot of people were complaining about.

You guys are ace. Problem fixed.
