Problem with textures

[ Edited ]
★★ Novice

After updating my old swtor client I started a game, but has encountered a textures bug - all my chars appeared in the textures UNDER the floor, meaning strange walkpaths, including periodical falls to death. Also some objects are displayed in somewhat ridiculous manner (like lightsabers in preview mode on upper screen). So I've reinstalled the game, but the issue is still not gone. I've also tried changing resolutions and windowed/fullscreen mode, but nothing worked so far. Is there any way to fix that?

Humor me on this, there is a reason

 

@SntKein

 

Press the Windows key and select settings

 

Go into Time and language, select region and language on the left

 

Click additional date, time & regional settings

 

Under region click the link for change date, time and number formats

 

Click additional settings at the bottom

 

Click either reset , or ensure . is decimal symbol and , is digit grouping symbol

A couple things I would try:

 

1. Update your graphics drivers.

 

2. Do a repair from the launcher

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

Video card is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti. Shouldn't repair be fixing file corruption problem? Looks like models/textures files corruption or smth similar. Pretty strange that character model is good in character selection list and character creation menu, but after login on any char everything except for most of floor/walls and objects like terminals is messed up. Thinking of non-streaming install, but dunno if it will help.

Is it possible that you may not have set up the "run as admin" parts of the installation correctly? and your malware scanners and windows security itself have been hampering your efforts to fix the issue?

The person had texture issues and fixed it by lowering the anti-aliasing setting to medium. See if that helps.
