Graphic glitches

[Revan]

Well.. so far it's not a huge issue, but once I left Kalm I noticed that the graphics of the game sometimes glitch out. There are some black triangles flickering all over the screen (they are like 30% of the screen each).

I tried to nail down what causes it but once you change the graphic settings they apparently disappear. Switching them to low and then on max again seems to do the trick for a short while.. but having to do that every hour or so once would be kinda annoying I suppose, which is why I'm posting here.

i9 14900KF
Geforce RTX 4090
64 GB RAM
insstalled on an SSD
Windows 11

Do you guys have an idea what might causing these glitches and how I can get rid of them for good? It's in my opinion clearly a shader that's glitching. Years ago I had issues with a defective gpu, the V-Shader ran amok in every game because of this. This right here looks almost the same. The GPU is fine though, I already tested it with a few benchmarks and everything was fine. No glitches, not odd behaviour.. everything like it was the last times I checked.

I think the fact we dont have a game ready driver for the game is probably the culprit, getting the same issue but its covering pretty much my entire screen till I run away from certain areas

Yeah, I had this just a few minutes ago when one of these birds appeared that show you the way to a mako well. I turned around and the entire screen went black.

After that I switched one graphic setting after another to low to see if one of them causes the "black screen" issue. After switching the background details to low this black texture disappeared again. But the textures all around me were not loaded. Like half of the ground around me was without textures.

Now I get the feeling that the game does not load the visuals quickly enough because of the missing textures after the "black screen" there.

And yeah.. I've also noticed that there was no game ready driver for this game. Isn't there usually always one when a big game like this comes out?

I have the exact same problem right after arriving in Nibelheim with Sephiroth. The first few seconds are fine and then the lighting seems to change to black glitching artifacts, sometimes even characters glitch. The only thing that works after that is looking at the ground.

Maybe try to verify files. I did it and it found 8 files that needed to be replaced. Since then i got not more glitching it seems.
