Screen Tearing and Artifacts

Post » Wed Dec 18, 2013 3:30 pm

I'm having a problem with vanilla Morrowind where I get lots of screen tearing and artifacts when turning quickly or looking up and down. What is causing this? I have a dual video card set up but I think I got it to run off one card, I figured that was the culprit. I'm also trying to disable AA and AF on my video card as I expected they were also part of the problem.

Also, limiting FPS didn't help. And I don't want to use MGE.

Why don't you want to use MGE? I only use it to get my 1080p resolution and vsync, nothing else. I don't use the eye-candy options or the distant land feature.
