Grass distance scaling is bugged as HELL

There is a serious issue with the grass popping up (especially in the city), when you see it, you cannot unsee it.

I have the same performance like in this video, watch it ---->

I think its even worse after the latest patch.

I have grass quality set to Very high, distance scaling slider set to max.

 

This is happening even with grass quality set to normal, high or ultra (didnt find a cure for this). Does anybody notices this as well ?

Hope they will fix this, but someone should report this to Rockstar (submit a ticket) !

Been the same for me since release. It's the same with other textures/shadows too, e.g. driving on beach it's the same. The thread just above yours has more detail I think:

Nevermind, I just wanted to point this out.

Here is already a guy saying that "it doesnt happen to him". Either he is telling the truth or he doesnt see it really...

Yep, noticed this last night and it is annoying and as you stated, it happens on every setting and it isn't hardware based. I'm using a Geforce 980 and have the game basically locked at 60fps with top settings so it isn't a hardware performance issue. I also agree it must be more noticeable now after the latest patch since I never noticed it before and it was obvious right away last night.

 

Reminds me of the PS4 version where the grass and plants in the rural areas renders in like that. Very distracting

I had this the first day of release and was very mad about it.

But for me, the latest AMD beta driver fixed that problem.

yeah the last patch broke alot of stuff...

One thing it broke for me is no more dynamic shadows, car headlights don't even make shadows on anything anymore :(

AND AGAIN, they havent fixed it -.-

They are only caring about GTA Online, and then again, I assume that this grass issue happens in GTA Online as well.

but they don`t care, they only care about modders/hackers and shark cards !

This strange thing with the "square" moving with the player and causing weird behaviour of textures, shadows and grass was happening to me as well, but only 2 or 3 times and then it was gone..IDK if it has something to do with game settings, but it didn't happen for like a week now.

This issue doesn't happen to everyone. Seems to be limited to certain configurations or something like that. Got 5 people including myself when don't get the issue and I'm sure many others are in the same position.

I'm sure they are looking into it so stop with the theories about them not caring about fixing issues like this which effect both sides of the game.

It must be that you dont have this issue because you have an AMD card...

Tell me, do you have this shadow bug as well ----> http://gtaforums.com/topic/786003-shadow-pixels/?do=findComment&comment=1067324691???

No shadow bugs like that, was checking last night when me and some friends went flying, using AMD CHS as my shadow option, seemed fine when I put the NVidia PCSS option on as well which surprised me
