I am getting this weird line across all my monitors while playing bulletstorm






I dont really have any other games installed to test at the moment, but I tried installing drivers from the ATI site, then also XFX's site, I uninstalled, scrubbed the drivers, then reinstalled and still same problem.

Has anyone seen this before.

I play COD MW2 on a single monitor and its ok

Apparently there's a problem with the rendering of "godrays" in the latest version of UE3 and AMD 6xxx cards. Hopefully this will get patched sooner or later, but in the meantime you can try this:
CONCLUSION: To fix THIS issue (temporarily I hope)
1. download and extract the bulletstormINIeditor: Bulletstorm INI Editor
2. launch it and navigate to your ../documents/my games/bulletstorm/stormgame/config/stormengine.ini
3. copy-paste the text over to notepad and search for 'lightshaft'
4. delete TRUE and replace with FALSE
5. copy paste the whole thing back to bulletstormINIeditor and click File -> Save
6. Launch game and kill with skill ( Albeit without lightshafts )

Its an issue with ATI cards and having the sharder set to high, set it to medium and it'll disappear.

lol I had that and i thought it was some random polygon vertex, then as the sun came into view it would flare 1/2 my image NOT a vertex... good fix thanks.

is it me, or are games becoming more and more GPU specific? I've noticed that AMD supported games play much better on them, then on Nivida supported games. Homefront is a good example of this.

Swings and roundabouts - DiRT2 is an AMD sponsored game, yet runs better on nVidia. I'm sure in the past there were nVidia sponsored games that ran better on ATi... I just can't remember any right now. UT2004?
