zzzqzzz Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Hi, When I patch Skyrim with an update newer than update 6, I get graphic issues. These issues seem to be related to shadows or lighting. In-game, when I stand still, everything is okay. But when I start moving, the shadows start flashing, switching between being on and off. Its strange and hard to explain. Its impossible to enjoy the game. Has anyone experienced anything like this before and found a solution to this problem? With update 6 or older, its fine. The reason why I need a newer update to work, is to activate DLC content, such as Dawnguard and Heartfire. Theses seem to require at least update 7. I've tried several times running those DLCs with older updates such as 4, 5, 6, but it has always resulted in a crash of some sort. I've tried to mix up my graphic settings, but nothing has worked so far. I use windows XP, nvidia GT9600, quad core CPU, so running the game shouldn't be a problem. Are there any known issues running Skyrim on XP? Comments are appreciated, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzzqzzz Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 Are you running a pirated version by any chance? :rolleyes: Yes. Are these issues related to that matter? Are there no known issues similar to the once I've described when running Skyrim through steam legally? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
