Opening Cinematics in KM
« on: September 15, 2020, 04:07:40 PM »
Has anyone ever experienced the opening cinematics not showing in their KM installs when launching the game?

I hear the sound/music but no graphics.

 :hi:

1. Stock BC 1.1 with unmodified KM installation?
2. AMD or GeForce?
3. Graphics Card driver latest?
4. Fullscreen or windowed (what resolution)

Checking into the best driver and I'm running fullscreen. Geforce and yes to question 1

Figured it out. It was a driver setting I had to change.

Sure thing!

With certain Nvidia drivers, there's a setting called Dynamic Super Resolution or "DSR". It's a feature that allows the driver to render the frames at a higher res then compress them down to the native resolution of the display. It makes it so the graphics displayed are sharper and crisper. It works great during gameplay but something about that feature does not allow for the cinematics to display as they seem to be unhappy with any of the compression. I turned off the setting and all was back to normal.
