County Borders Problem

[derbengal]

Since the new patch the county borders aren't staying visible. When the game starts their visible, but once I move the mouse cursor they flash once or twice and then disappear. If the cursor crosses from one county to another the flashing repeats before they disappear again. Problem exists regardless of which map mode is used. The problem isn't game breaking, but it is irritating. Anyone else having/had this problem?

I've not seen any other reports of it. If you have the game via Steam, try verifying the game's local files. If that doesn't help, please post a dxdiag.txt (you can delete everything after the "Sound devices" section for brevity), settings.txt, system.log and error.log files (you'll need to rename the .log files to .txt to upload). Also open setup.log, search for "checksum", and paste that line only in here.

I've had this since release. After a few minutes of play the borders sort themselves out.

Sorry I haven't posted what you asked for yet. It's partially because I've been swamped with exams, and partially because outside of the two txt files, I can't find the other things asked for. I've tried searching for the files on my computer but nothing comes up, and I don't know where to find them. I'm not great with computers but I'll try to find them if anyone can help me know where to look. If it matters I use Vista.

DXDIAG is a program you run from a command prompt or the Windows start menu 'run' dialog box (or 'search programs' in Windows 7). After running it will open a window and start collecting info with a progress bar in the lower-left corner. When it completes click the 'save all information' button and save it to a file then post the first part of that file here.

The other files are in the CK2 or CK2/logs/ directory, in your MyDocuments folder.

Thanks, think I have them all now.
