Water disappeared

[smithwr3]

Did a patch come out between the 4th and 6th of December? If so, all my water disappeared in the game and I'm getting less than 10 fps. I'm running two 980 Nvidias in SLI and performance on the 3rd of December was well in the 40 fps at 1920x1280. Even if I drop the resolution down to the lowest setting there is no fps gain. I'm running Nvidia driver version 417.21 My system is an Intel Core i7-7700K with 32 GB ram on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. All my other games run fine...

What the patch notes on forums say when patch released ? 29/11
Also, this game does not support SLI, and never had.

yes. on the 4th a new patch/ first part of dlc legacy of first blade came out. it was fairly large so maybe it caused your problem. not sure as mine is running fine. contact ubi support so they can look into it.

Pics or it never happened.

On 4th was DLC, not a patch. Those who don't have Season Pass hadn't updated.

Hi there,

Thank you for providing the image showing this glitch you are experiencing in game, I will certainly pass this information along to our game team for further investigation. Can I ask whether this is continual happening of if this was a one off experience.?

While I understand you may have already attempted these steps could I suggest you work through the following PC troubleshooting here.[support.ubi.com]

Hopefully this should resolve your issue but if you continue to experience this, please feel free to let us know.

Even tho one of Ubisoft Developer has responded, i still think you should make an offering for Poseidon to get this fixed

[smithwr3]

Ubi-Litten, The problem is continually happening. I'm working with Ubi Support on this and they've already mentioned those troubleshooting steps and they have had no effect. A video at the following link shows what I'm seeing with one exception: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9irEAPpkOGM The exception is that I don't see the surface of the water before my character jumps in. It seems that if I go under the surface of the water, I see the water like normal, however I still have the same fps drop. I get about 10 fps in game, 40-70 during loading screens and 130-150 in the map/inventory/abilities/cultists/ship screen.

I've tried verifying the game cache and uninstalling the game and reinstalling it. The problem still persists. I wonder if something was changed in the game for the rendering of water for Nvidia users using SLI on a three-monitor setup? I should note that I'm only playing the game with one monitor at 1920x1280 resolution.

[smithwr3]

Disabling SLI fixed the problem. I never had this problem before the DLC came out with over 80 hours of play. I have lots of other games that don't experience extreme slowdows and graphics problems with SLI enabled... Hopefully this can be fixed in an upcoming patch.

Thanks for the information.

Apologies for the confusion, as smithwr3 mentioned, SLI is not supported in the game. As such, unfortunately, it's unlikely that there will be a patch to address this.

If other users are experiencing the issue as well, make sure you disable SLI in-game first.
