Tile textures loading up after scrolling the map

[mandella]

So, the game is great and all, but I'm having a bit annoying tech issue. The problem is that after scrolling map to some other area the tiles textures are loading up, becoming sharper and as they are supposed to look like. The loading is really quick, about 0.5s, but it's quite annoying. Anyone else experiencing this?

That could be a video memory problem. Reduce the texture setting (and resolution and antialiasing if needed) and see if that helps. What video card do you have?

 

[mandella]

Radeon 4890 Vapor-X, 1GB RAM. Doubt it's video memory issue

I get it in DX9 mode, and it's more like 2 sec
It's almost gone in DX11 mode.

You got Nvidia or ATI card?

Well then, it's not specific card related problem. I got ATI. I'm gonna try updating to newest drivers.

Newest drivers will help a ton. Mine weren't that old (June vs. July) and the update made a very noticible difference. I've seen the textures loading too, but only when a save is first opened, not from scrolling around the map.

Didn't help I'll try defragmenting hd during night. We'll see tomorrow.

I have the same issue... Im going to update my drivers now

I have this "issue" too- doubt it's an "issue" think it's the way firaxis programmed this beast... really sort of sloppy.

latest drivers, defragged, windows 7, 4 gb, 1 gb video ram, etc...
