Hi 𒆜FabzŇ :) actually that was one of the first things I tried. It wouldn't be the first time maxxing setting that way could fix things. Unfortunately not this time, I was playing on maxxed settings before the patch. That was the settings I was used to playing with :/ I did post everything I tried previously but if you have any other ideas I'd like to hear. Not a boast but my rig should be capable of much more then running this game.

At this point I feel I have eliminated hardware and OS settings, 2 different NV driver versions including the most recent, 2 different motherboard firmware and steam/windows software. A Complete OS flatten and reinstall is where I think most even dedicated gamers give up but I still want to play Valheim. I don't see what else there is I can change at this point. Every other game plays fine, a couple games like Command and Conquer actually play better after the reinstall but I don't see this as help for Valheim, something really strange is going on with this game.

I'd like to be able to play Valheim eventually so here to hoping the devs figure it out hjh
