Next gen texture bug
I'm getting strange texture bugs for this game. It effects ground textures mainly as if they're transparent or floating. Looks like the tesselation is broken or something. Anyone know how I can fix this? I've tried completely uninstalling the game and removing any witcher 3 files on pc. Tried changing texture settings and turned ray tracing off. Tried turning dlss off and changed nvidia control panel settings like anisotropic filtering off but nothing fixes it. I'm using a 4090. There's a video below, thanks.

Use an recording software (OBS, geforce experience , xbox live , or tons other options.)

it is hard to see anything in video because it is blurry as @

I dont see that issue in dx 11 , have you tried dx 11 ? to see if there i s same issue , that can at least say if the issue is in entire game or just dx 12.

Yeah just noticed this only uploaded in 480p. I'll try make a new video. No not tried dx11 but only interested in dx12 for the ray tracing anyway.

Here's a better video of someone else having same problem. Exactly what's happening to me.

I'm also getting black squares appearing on ground textures popping in and out. Seems to stop when rt is turned off.

I've tried completely uninstalling game and deleting witcher 3 folder from my documents but problems won't go away. Tried changing nvidia anisotropic filtering from clamp to allow too but thay didn't do anything. Also tried turning dlss off but that didn't help.

I seen some people resolves the transparent texture issues by changing the tesselation options in amd control panel but I'm using an nvidia gpu which doesn't have any tesselation options.

Uhm, are you using any graphic enhancing mod (Tweaks, Ultra4, and so on) enabling better than Ultra+ quality levels? That being the case, keep in mind that Nvidia cards have a problem with settings improving the "Detail Level" voice beyond Ultra+. The other voices can be safely maxed, assuming you GPU can handle them (as it should, being a 4090), but raising the detail level beyond Ultra+ causes devastating glitches, inlcuding under reading the meshes for textures in Novigrad and Beauclair (disappearing buildings and so on).

I did have that but uninstalled it. Also had hd trees and billboards mod but uninstalled that too. Did a fresh install and deleted witcher 3 settings folder in my documents. Started fresh install with no mods and floating textures are still there.

Did you MANUALLY remove any left folder in \Steam\steamapps\common\The Witcher 3, too ?
Be sure to remove everything, every folder, everywhere; you should also check if you changed something in the Nvidia Control Panel; there are guides with optmized settings on CDPR boards, but I discovered that, having been created with old gen in mind, they don't necessarily fit with the next gen version and in some cases actually create problems (setting Texture Memory Budget to higher than 2048, and in particular to 1/2 of your GPU's VRAM on modern cards is one of those)

barring the afrorementioned solutions, I'm out of ideas...

Hi yes I've tried all of that. Texture budget is set to 1200 default. Tried changing to 2048 but didn't help. Also getting these black squares with ray tracing enabled.
