Problem with gta V

[ignas550]

Hello, i have kinda big problem with gta v.
if i dont turn msaa to x4 or higher, game looks like crap, textures that are like 20m in front of me are like from little pixels. Is there any way to solve the issue?

No, nothing you can do to fix it except upgrading your pc. (most likely gpu / cpu)

If you put it on msaa x4 or higher your pc lags right? If so, you'll have to upgrade, unfortunately 🙁

You can always try putting other settings to higher, but an upgrade would really help you out

im playing at very high settings and getting avg 50fps with x4 msaa (r9 380x, i5 4460). but game shouldnt look like crap with msaa turned off. or it should?

That's not fault of MSAA, it's just the way the game renders stuff. Pretty annoying, you can observe similar stuff in Witcher 2, even on max settings

 

[ignas550]

so its normal and there is no way of solving it? Because vids in youtube looks better even when msaa is turned off. If its not msaa fault, why everything is ok with msaa x4?

 

[Wierzbak]

I'll look it up for myself and record a quick video for you to see (although I'm not sure if I will handle 4x MSAA 😛)

That looks like something to do with view distance quality, maybe try that?

 

[ignas550]

1680x1050. distance scaling is at max, extended at 0, but if i turn extended to max, no results, still same problem

 

[Wierzbak]

Okay, same with me. Strange, cause that's not what aa does. But there isn't much we can do about it I think :/

 

[ignas550]

but why in youtube everything looks ok?

 

[Wierzbak]

YouTube is compressing those videos a lot, so the quality is too bad for you to see stuff like that. I'll post a video too.

List your system specs plz and os.

I'd try returning GTA5 graphics all to default and reboot the PC before trying again. If using a Geforce card using GE might help.

I'm going to suspect its a driver issue, a combination between driver software configuration and game. I'll look into it more when i have time but shouldn't be having graphic deformations like that.

Id try DDU graphic driver uninstaller and install the latest AMD drivers.

 

[ignas550]

i have latest crimson drivers, tried to reinstall, nothing

I'm not familiar with AMD Radeon settings, is that like Geforce Experience? Could that be causing your issues?

Try changing AMD optimised shader cache and Surface format Optimisation to something else. GE doesn't have any of those settings listed for GTA5.

 

[ignas550]

will try that, when i come back home. Do you have more suggestions? Would be really nice

 

[ignas550]

tried everything you mentioned, no result

 

[boju]

Ok sorry.

Try fullscreen Windowed mode and also go through every resolution your monitor is compatible with starting from the lowest and move up comparing each, see if theres a difference in rendering.

Try forcing in crimson too, Anisotropic Filtering at x16

Not sure if related but this pixelation issue with the sky: https://support.rockstargames.com/hc/communities/public/questions/203472677-GTA-V-PC-Pixelated-Edges

Hud had something to do with it, not sure if this particular bug has been fixed yet but thought i'd mentioned it. Hud can be turned off under screen.

 

[boju]

turning off ambient occlusion might help.
