Ghosting/smear/blur behind moving vehicles issue
Is anyone getting a Blur, smear, smudge effect behind moving vehicles?

Im getting headaches and it effects my eyes.

Ive browsed this problem universally online, and most everyone states "not" to use TAA as the anti aliasing method, however, all the other methods, make no difference, and makes everything else including building looks tremendously worse. TAA is by far the best Method, in order to play the game, but cannot get rid of the smear/blur behind moving vehicles.

Anyone having this issue, and knows a work around?
thanks x

I have depth of field switched off. Motion blur, switched off.

this needs an urgent fix, because its actually giving me a headache, which no game should.

That sounds like AI, aka upscalling and such.

Usually this is a result of Temporal Anti-Aliasing, or TAA. It relies on previous frames to perform its function. The result is a ghosting effect when large amounts of pixels change in a frame. It's not a bug, it's just how the algorithm works.

If you can't play comfortably with it on, you should disable it.

I'm using TAA and don't see this, and TAA looks much better than any of the other settings.

A higher refresh rate or framerate can hide the effect, but that is fundamentally how TAA works. It uses traces of the past frames to smooth out the current frame.

It might look better, but if it's making OP feel physically ill they should still consider disabling it for their own sake.

TAA is pretty crap if you have any kind of scaling turned on. Bluergh.

You should turn scaling off, it just makes everything worse.

That might be it, I'm hitting 100+ fps most of the time.

Not to be critical or anything but, Any other Anti aliasing makes the game look rubbish. Jagged lines everywhere. Id consider this unplayable if i cant have TAA on.
I also have TAA on in other games, such as Hell let loose, and its fine.

As for upscaling, well... i odnt have a 4090, only a 4070TI. id go from 27 fps, down to 19 fps if i did that. Again, id consider that unplayable.

Did you ever figure out a solution to this issue?

disable global illumination quality:winter2019happyyul:

i stopped playing the game.
Lost interest.

with a ton of frustration, I helped the modding community make surfaces and decals for farmland, in the hopes of getting my head back into the game, but modding was abit stressful all in itself, and got burnt out, and decided to call it quits with the game..

Im more than likely did try global illumination, as i did try just about every combination going.
Its TAA thats was the issue for me, but was the only anti aliasing method, that looked presentable, without jagged lines everywhere.
