weird triangles appearing
Every time I put the cursor on anything in the map, trees, mens, buildings etc half the screen is filled up with giant blue/white triangles. Any thoughts?

Got the same problem.

When playing warrior kings battles on my pc i get Artifacts (grey triangles) on my screen everytime i hover my mouse over a clickable object.
The problem doesn't show in any other game i have.

My pc has Windows 10 educational 64-bit installed and a Nvidia Geforce 740M GPU.
When i had Windows 8.1 installed on this pc the game worked flawlessly.

I have tried the following things to solve the problem:

I have multiple versions of directx installed, including the newest.
My graphic drivers are up to date.
I have tried reïnstalling the game.
I have tweaked compatibility options.
I have tweaked the ingame graphic options.
Also tried graphic mods.

If someone know how to fix this pleas comment.

Got the same problem ,the clue is, in my old pc it plays fine(downloaded from steam normally).
core2duo e6700
ati radeon hd 4850

This old computer plays smoothly but my new pc has those glitched textures.
I dont know if this clue help, but im also trying to solve this problem.

ok i found it!!!


"WK(B) Graphical issue fix
I talked to someone who had the graphics issue (triangles/sheet on the screen when hovering over an object). I told him a possible solution and it solved the problem.

All you have to do is to download the ENB D3D8 to D3D9 converter (download[enbdev.com]) and extract the contents of the ZIP file to the game's directory (for example: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Empire Interactive\Warrior Kings - Battles")

If you bought the game on Steam, you can get the game dir in the Library -> Games -> right-click WKB -> Properties -> Local Files -> Browse local files.

A possible cause is that Windows 10's implementation of d3d8.dll works differently than previous versions (some Win10 users report that they can't activate anti-aliasing in their Direct3D 8 games for example). There could be other factors. It seems that Intel graphics had this issue a lot, though I am able to run WK and WKB on computers with Windows Vista/7 and Intel GMA 82945G/4500M without any problem!

You can watch this video which shows the issue and the fix."

Ya'll are legends! I had the same issue with these weird blue-ish white blips coming up. Now I can play normally and get back to some nostalgia!

Thanks a ton!
