Emakandi Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 (edited) So one day when i loaded skyrim i realise i now have a huge problem with shadows. All the textures, characters, walls, rocks and buildings have shitfing shadows on them and every 5 seconds the shadows shake and cover everything in the game. It wasn't there for the first 52 hours i logged on the game and now it is and has ruined the game. I can't figure out why this is happening. I have Installed new drivers, re-installed the game even loaded a past restore point and nothing has helped. I tried taking screen shots but they don't capture the shadows.

JPIKE420 Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 My game does this too. I think it may have something to do with the movements of the sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sauron07 Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 JPIKE420 is correct. This is related to the fsunshadowupdate and fsunshadowthreshold settings in the skyrim.ini file. Try adding the following under [Display] in the skyrim.ini file located in the mydocuments/mygames/skyrim folder fSunShadowUpdateTime=0fSunUpdateThreshold=2.0 It doesn't fix the issue completely but it makes the sun transition faster and the sun only updates every 16 minutes or so instead of every 5-8 seconds.
