Artificating issues since 1.5.5

[Legacy (DayZ) 1091]

Thread states it how it is, lately since 1.5.5 me and other individuals on Dallas 1 have been experiencing mass artificating when running around cherno, specifically the Hospital area. Due to this it almost makes it unplayable around specific areas since there is giant black walls or other issues such as white flashes.

This is not a video card issue either since other people experience the same thing, we all over Teamspeak have seen it before.

(And yes I do have my Arma II at 800x600, performance issues.)

I got those in Belota before the update. Changing my resolution fixed it.

Serious? I'll try it.

Got it in Stary Sobor. Had to do a complete restart of client.

What happened: screen tearing, unplayable

Where you were: a factory. just off the coast... (all i know) :/

What you were doing: saw a light in the factory from a distance. once approaching, (50 meters) my whole screen would tear black. i kept going, made it to the factory (found out it was just a burning barrel) in the factory it was tearing.

In the Announcement thread, Legacy is having the same problem, and he says he is not alone.

AA, rendering, and all the extra fancy things my comp can't handle are off.

any feedback would be much appreciated considering i'm mad addicted and jonesing for a fix.

I don't believe it, the resolution change worked. For now... Appreciate it.
