.::Splitscreen Graphics Issue
When running 4-player splitscreen, with the graphics maxed out, something strange happens, where every frame is duplicated in the form of a translucent trail, creating a strobe-like effect.

The only way to solve it seems to be to significantly reduce the graphics, which, based on the recommended computer specifications, shouldn't be necessary. Worth noting, the issue is non-existent in single-player modes.

My specs, below:

OS: Windows 10
Processor: Intel Core i9-9900K CPU @ 3.60GHz
Memory: 32 GB RAM
Graphics: RTX 2070 Super, 8 GB VRAM
DirectX: Version 12
Storage: 300 GB available space (of 1 TB SSD)
Alienware Tower & Monitor (240Hz G-SYNC)

** * **

Recommended specs, for easy reference:

OS: Windows 10
Processor: Intel Core i5-6600 or better
Memory: 16 GB RAM
Graphics: GTX 1080 or equivalent, 4+ GB VRAM
DirectX: Version 11
Storage: 8 GB available space

Would you mind getting me a video of this bug? I'd greatly appreciate it.

Aplogies for my belated reply; moved house, not long ago, and have heaps to do.

For some reason, I thought Steam had a native video capturing hotkey, but later realized it doesn't.

Just cruious, before I decide on one, if you've a recommendation for which application I should use? Perhaps a screenshot or two might suffice, instead?

Personally I use ShareX. It's great for recording videos, gifs, and for taking really quick screenshots. You can drop videos on streamable or google drive (and set to public).

Right, so.. I were admittedly speaking from memory on the issue, so it were a good idea for me to capture a video.

It would appear, upon closer analysis, that whatever the second player sees is being transposed over into the third and fourth player screens, in the form of a transluscent shadow, of sorts; the first player, as you can see, is unaffected.

Hey there! Sorry it took so long, but just wanted to let you know that I found the cause of this issue (it was the SSR buffer not be cleared when going into splitscreen) and it has been fixed! The fix will appear in the next update, which will be very soon.

You know, we haven't really gotten to dig into this game since purchasing it.. so, I'm really looking forward to that update.

Thanks, again.

Ahh, right on.

Kids have been asking to play it, but I were waiting until this was sorted.

'Preciate the heads-up.
