Graphic Issues on a Macbook Pro

[aurora]

Hey,

haven't played TLD for quite a while now and just came back to it after the latest Update. But, TLD is unplayable for me on a Macbook Pro - see the attached screenshots. As soon as the menu loads, the graphics is broken. In-game graphics is not much better. So, i have the latest Update of TLD, macOS Catalina (10.15.7). It also doesn't matter if i am running TLD fullscreen or windowed. I've tried to lower the graphic settings to no avail. It also does not matter if i am attaching an external screen or not.

My machine: Macbook Pro 15", 2018; 2,2GHz 6 core i7; 16GB Ram; Radeon Pro 555X 5GB, Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536MB.

Is this a known issue? Is there anything i can do about it?

Thanks, best ...

I also have this same graphics corruption on macOS Big Sur;

$ sw_vers 
ProductName:    macOS
ProductVersion:    11.1
BuildVersion:    20C69

Hardware is a 2017 27" iMac;

Model Name:    iMac
  Model Identifier:    iMac18,3
  Processor Name:    Quad-Core Intel Core i7
  Processor Speed:    4.2 GHz
  Number of Processors:    1
  Total Number of Cores:    4
  L2 Cache (per Core):    256 KB
  L3 Cache:    8 MB
  Hyper-Threading Technology:    Enabled
  Memory:    64 GB

It has been occurring since at least the Hesitant Prospect update (v.189). 

Workaround of adding 

-force-glcore

to the Set Launch Options of the game in Steam appears to resolve the acute issue. Unclear what the underlying issue is or why it is not being addressed by Hinterlands. Bug reports submitted at the launch of 1.89.

That does it for me, too; thanks a ton!

Same issue here after not playing for a while. I play on a macbook pro, recently updated the OS. 

Any updates from Hinterland on this?

I also have this same graphics corruption on Big Sur. I have imac 2019.

I encountered this graphic error or problem after Escape The Darkwalker update. Yes Force Glcore works, but I had performance (instant contractions and heaviness etc.)problems and there were problems with the sounds. With the last update of 2021, sound problems seem to have improved, but the chart still needs force glore.

I hope you will find a solution to this.

Stay healthy.
