Yeah, got both of the patches and it has fixed a lot of probelms. But
these graphical issues I have are post patch. Been fiddling around a
bit with the LOD setting, and it does seem to have improved the
situation slightly, but not really enough.
I think the 23.11 drivers are a lot better than the 21.8x drivers, but
for the problem I mentioned before - that GPL suddenly has no menus at
all, which makes it unusable. Anyone else had that problem? Even the
credits when you exit GPL have no text! Very weird.
