Do you mean that sometimes inside the game you can only see half of the screen (and the other half is black)?

Yes, the other half is not black, i start a new game and i dont see the other half. The other half look like the sky, when i zoom out, i see the complete map, when i zoom into the map, i see only the half of the top.

Could you upload a screenshot?

Can you try adjusting your screen resolution in the user_settings.json file (it is in the folder where you installed Stonehearth). In the “renderer” section, specify your screen resolution (“screen_width” and “screen_height”):

"renderer" : {
	"enable_ssao" : false,
	"enable_shadows" : false,
	"msaa_samples" : 0,
	"shadow_resolution" : 256,
	"enable_vsync" : false,
	"enable_fullscreen" : false,
	"screen_width" : 1175,
	"screen_height" : 661,
	"draw_distance" : 1000,
	"last_window_x" : 89,
	"last_window_y" : 103,
	"use_fast_hilite" : false,
	"last_screen_x" : 105,
	"last_screen_y" : 159,
	"shadow_quality" : 1,
	"max_lights" : 5,
	"run_once" : true,
	"use_high_quality" : false
}

I have experienced something similar, but only when the firepit is lit at night, and it doesn’t last for long.

Also, sometimes you can see a black border in window mode, because the screen has the shape to be adjusted to the resolution. For example here I have a black border at the top and bottom:

Sorry for self-advertising my mod

But I think this is not your problem, since you can only see the top, and borders are generated equally in both sides of the screen…

That’s not exactly black… It looks like phasing into the terrain. Let me check about the ghost trees… we had people with weird render glitches on early alphas, but I doubt there’s useful information on how to fix it, other than updating the graphic drivers and stuff like that…

Edit: Ok. Found one…

Found two…

give it a fix for this bug?

Hmm… First, post your system specs. Second, try updating your graphic drivers from the manufacturer’s website (don’t trust auto-updaters, they sometimes lie).

3rd… @not_owen_wilson, help me :cry:

Hi, I’m still having this problem and I tried everything mentioned. I updated my driver and set my resolution and it still doesnt work. It’s like I have X-Ray vision and I can even see little caves under the map that have chests and whatnot. I’ve messed with the splicing mechanic and reloading the game and nothing works

Welcome, @Icarus :slightly_smiling_face:
Please type “G” while in the game. If I remember correctly that was the shortcut to reset your camera (to center it over the game banner after it’s placed, or just over the center of the terrain), your camera is likely phasing into the terrain, so the problem might not be the resolution of your screen actually.

Also deactivate the x-ray vision option. The slice option might also be showing terrain under the mountains too. But I suspect the main problem could be your camera. Once you get it above the surface, it shouldn’t go inside the terrain so easily. So if these tips don’t work, maybe zooming out a lot will move it above the surface.
