yeah i did this a while back didnt fix anything :/
Edit: sorry i just realized that a new set of drivers is out, gonna install them quick and see if this fixes the problem!
 
okay after installing the drivers ive still got the glitches. ive also noticed another glitch with white lines in all the peoples hair in every cutscene, ill upload a video in a minute. Any help guys?
 
Have you done the postFX disable edit in the gamerprofile.xml file (setting it to "false" in the .xml file)?

With the current drivers etc I get this white colour effect in some of the different character's hair (beards) when I disable the postFX. If I leave the postFX settings as ultrahigh (or whatever you set it too) the white colour goes.

that fixed my issue! i had it set to medium, i set it to ultra and that fixed all the problems! thats why i come to this forum for help lol, thank you so much.
 
Hope you don't mind witchell me hijacking this thread a bit as your problem is fixed.

Since I had Far Cry 3 I've had an issue where the AI characters would flash/jerk/spas out from time to time, same thing happens in Blood Dragon, can't find anything online. This is with a number of different drivers on a GTX 680.

Thanks.
 
hey whitehawk, i have the same issue, where the characters spas and then settle after 5-10 seconds? thats normal and just a bug with far cry 3 i believe.
