problem with stripes on large city tiles

[Namesys 3]

I think the message title and the picture will explain it all

Please for any help.

Thanks!

Hi, Namesys!

Do you get the same problem when you try to open a 'striped' city? Could just be a graphics glitch, I wouldn't worry about that.

Hmm... I have this problem too. I believe the cause of it is large game resolutions.

Namesys: What resolution is SC4 running on your computer? Mine is 1920x1200. If you have something close to this this may be why.

Running the same resolution here, and I have the exact same problem so it must be that.

hy guys.

I run on 1600x1200.

The strange part is... it didn't happend before on the same resolution. It started occuring just now. And i'm playing this game more than 2 years now.

[Namesys 3]

oh yes, and reopening the city doesn't help it at all.

The same problem with other resolutions, but still i would mind playing on lower resolutions just because I don't have a bad computer to be forced to play on the lower.

Thanks for any further advice.

I don't remember exactly, but what little I do recall... it has something to do with rendering a region in-game with a high or custom resolution... or something like that. Aside from being ugly, it has no functional effect on the game. You could try to re-render it with the game running at a standard resolution (you'll have to backup and re-import the developed cities). Again I'm not 100% sure if this is what caused your issue, but I do recall seeing it myself before and since, as a rule if I render a new region, I always use a standard resolution e.g. 1024x768.

[Namesys 3]

so this game as to be on 1024x768 when rendering?

[SC4BOY 21]

Yes or smaller.. if you want reliable saves.. when this game was released 600x800 was the norm

[Namesys 3]

ok then.

And why hasn't this problem been fixed with a patch by now?

It's about time !

it's annoying but has no big impact on gameplay. if you want to take screenshots of your region without the stripes, run the game at a lower resolution, open and save each affected region, and you should be fine.

Thanks guys. You saved my region
