Does the PS3 version of Skyrim also have texture streaming issues?

LOT: "Bethesda informed gamers on Friday that the Xbox 360 version of Skyrim was indeed suffering from texture streaming issues when installed on the HDD. Now it seems the same texture streaming issue may be present in the PS3 version."

Yeah its not just an Xbox thing. I've actually heard all three version have some sort of an issue with texture streaming.

The game is freaking incredible regardless.

kramun5293d ago

I've not noticed it on pc.

Kamikaze1355293d ago

Me either. This guy must be trippin'

limewax5293d ago

Well its pretty evident on PC, trees, buildings, distant land and even clouds all seem to have an issue, and it appears to be less likely to stick on PC, normally the texture will repair itself fairly fast. The only time I have seen it stick was in a cave, snow covered stone didn't load all the texture layers in one spot

It's still a great game and runs well on any system(unless you're picky).

PS3 has A LOT of frame rate issues. The game is still great, But it's the last game from Bethesda I am buying for console.

Works great on the 360 lol. Watched my friend play it and it was fine.
Developers are just too lazy now days.
Thank god i got the PC version :)

I've been having texture streaming issues on PS3 as well. It took the game 5-10 seconds to load in a large patch of grass.

DonaldBeck5293d ago

sucks for you, ive never had that problem, and i put 20 hours in so far

eak35292d ago

ive got some 20 hrs in also and havent noticed any problems like that. <knock on wood> I havent had a single game freeze either.

ShoryukenII5293d ago

The only problem that I've noticed is when I'm really high up near Riverwood and have a great view of Whiterun, I can't see the trees closer to Whiterun. There is a hairline where there are no more trees. When I run closer, they start appearing. I know it isn't a glitch but it bothers me.

limewax5293d ago

If your on console, that's kind of because that's as much as the console can do, If you are playing on PC then try editing the line fGrassMinFadeDistance in the .ini and changing the value to around 400.0000, for some reason any tree other than the main type you see everywhere is counted under grass. You could probably push the value higher but that's as far as I have tested it so far

I'm on console. Y-Y

Christopher5292d ago

Only issue I've had is the pause when opening the inventory/skills menu. One time it was about 10 seconds. Only happens when it autosaves when opening the menu, though.

Parasyte5291d ago

Funny, since I made this post, I haven't had any issues. I guess the game knew I was talking bad about it. :)

No.

Just kidding. :(

ASTAROTH5293d ago

A game full of glitches as reported and lots of problems in the graphics dept (yet an amazing game I admit), is getting all these high scores and its considered the stongest contender for GOTY... wow. Portal 2 or Batman for me.

they can't get a 14 year old game to run smoothly?

jjb1981150d ago

That's ridiculous, lol. I'm waiting for the guy that says its too cpu-intensive for the Switch 2. This game is old af and has been released like 17 times.
