Artifacts in game.

★★★ Newbie

Hey friends!
Recently I had a problem with the artifacts, which didn`t exist before.
It's not the video card, I believe, because it wasn`t on windows 7.
A few days ago updated on windows 10 and set new ATI driver.
Have any any ideas how to fix this?
Your prompt reply will be highly appreciated:3

Not sure if it's a windows 10 thing, I'm still on Windows 7.  Check your ATI Driver and make sure per the manufacture website that it's the newest version.

 

If you have checked that and it's still having issues, below are some steps you can try:

 

Delete the DiskCacheArena file under the swtor directory.

 

If that doesn't work, you can also try running a repair:

 

Non-Streaming launcher - Log into the launcher but don't click Play. Check for small letters "ST" in the bottom left corner. If this is NOT present, click the cog icon and then run the repair option.

 

Streaming launcher - If the letters "ST" is present, close the launcher, right mouse click on the game shortcut, select open file location and delete the BitRaider folder. Then start the launcher.

 

Worse case scenario switch to the non streaming launcher:

 

NOTE this is a complete download of the game again

 

right mouse click on game shortcut and select open file location

open the launcher.settings file in notepad and locate the below line and edit to the below

 

, "PatchingMode": "{ \"swtor\": \"SSN\" }"
, "bitraider_disable": true

SAVE the changes.


Delete the BitRaider, Movie and Asset folders then start the launcher.

 

* I do not take credit for the above steps, those are from other forum uses on swtor.
