<p>Hi, i'm afraid this really isn't anything new- this is the second Nvidia card i've had powerful enough to run the game with a decent reflections level active, and both of them have had issues. I've got a Frapsed video on Youtube, which as I post is still processing the HD version. The glitching is visible even without HD at 0:50 onwards.</p><p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSEWbIhJYF4" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSEWbIhJYF4</a></p><p>This glitching is also particularly noticeable on, but by no means limited to, the Venom Flow river in Kunzar Jungle.</p><p>If it helps, i'm using a Geforce GTX 260 896Mb (216 core version) with 185.85 drivers. The beginning part of the video includes a quick cap of my reflections settings, which should be visible in the HD version.</p>

<p>Yep that's the problem I have.  It sucks running the game without reflections because you know how beautiful the water is when it's maxed.</p>

I did update the driver after I posted the test and the problem remains, however I upgraded to a more recent WHQL driver, the 190.62s. Is rolling back to the 190.38s likely to improve this?</p>
