[SOLVED][0.17.37] Invisible Entities When Zoomed Out

[MisterDoctor]

This affects all of my saves. This is the first time I've ever had even the tiniest bug, and it happened immediately upon trying 0.17.37.

Zooming out past 100% (well I assume it's 100%) immediately makes a lot of things invisible. Particularly belts, but also grass, and some other things. Gun Turrets look really weird, being only half invisible (the "gun" part is still there but the "base" isn't, or something).

Another issue seems to be that as I zoom more out, lights that illuminate at night darken. If I zoom all the way out, the lights look completely off.

No belts


Lights at night ok when zoomed in (also notice turrets)


Dim lights when zoomed out


No lights at all when zoomed out a lot

Thanks.
Hmm, I wouldn't have expected any problems on GTX 1060, I have 3GB one at home and 6GB one in the office. Can you try to update your graphics driver? https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverR ... 6341/en-us

[MisterDoctor]

I don't have time right now, but I can confirm that the problem does go away if I switch to the monitor on the Intel HD Graphics, and then restart the game. If I switch back to an Nvidia monitor, and restart the game, the problem is back.

[MisterDoctor]

ok yeah, updating drivers fixed it, should have known. thanks.
