Graphics bugs: seeing through the ground; avatar half submerged

Allison M shared this bug 21 days ago
Need More Information

Playing a Classic Survival start and the graphics seem to have taken a step backward since I played the story mode a couple months ago. As I drill down into the ground, I see through the dirt to the landscape around me. Also, my avatar looks like it's half buried in the dirt.

This is making it really hard to drill deposits. I can't see what it is I'm actually drilling a lot of the time!

Turns out this is happening all over the place as I drill. The fact that it resolves after restarting the game isn't much help, either, because I would have to do it half a dozen times for every deposit I try to mine. Combined with the other visual bug I reported, where the graphics clip to the far surface when digging tunnels, it's actually quite challenging to fully mine a resource deposit in SE2 because it's rarely possible to actually see what you're drilling.

Hello Allison M,


I believe that both of your issues are caused by incorrect loading of the terrain LOD (Level of Detail). Could you please provide a screenshot of your Graphical Settings? Are you using any mods in your playthrough? What GPU do you use?


Kind Regards,

Hello,

I couldn't quite fit them all on one screen, so I've attached 2 pictures. Honestly can't remember if I've changed them at some point or if they're default. You can probably tell, I guess.

I am not using any mods at this point.

When I have this bug happen to me, I can sometimes fall through the surface of these disjointed visual/physic voxels. I experienced this fall-through and attached it as a video in the aftermath, though I did not catch the moment of the fall-through itself. I also demonstrated how you can mine your way back to the correct side of the surface.
