Witcher 3 Problems with Loading Textures
Witcher 3 Problems with Loading Textures
Hey guys, it feels a bit late for this question but I just bought Witcher 3 during the summer sale and wanted to give it a try. People said the graphics are really good and my computer is strong enough so I turned up the graphics settings to their highest level. Basically, I've been in Novigrad for a while and I'm getting some texture loading problems. It could be a general issue because the game takes way too long to load compared to what it should do with my specs. My main trouble spots are parts of the map that show up black on the minimap, which matches areas where textures are loading super slowly or flickering constantly. I also sometimes have to wait ten seconds for the next line of dialogue, even though it was normal when I first started playing. It takes about two minutes just to load a save file too. I've looked at lots of forums and most of them talk about mods, which I don't have and might affect me. Many of those problems are caused by slower hard drives or SSDs, but I'm using a PCIe Gen 4 SSD that's free. Here is my computer setup: CPU: Intel Core i7-12600K GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3080 Motherboard: Gigabyte Z690I DDR4 RAM: Trident Z 3200 Power Supply: EVGA Supernova 850W SSD: WD Black 850 1TB I haven't been super hot on the temps, CPU around 55 and GPU around 70. The SSD gets a little hotter at 80 if that matters. I also have videos showing what's going wrong. First video shows textures not loading right, second video shows dialogue taking forever to load since it shouldn't take so long. Thanks way ahead of time for any help!
