Hey everyone, haven't been around in a while, just tried to pick up the game again recently but I'm having some issues. Whenever I load the game recently, everything looks blurry and horrible, like so. (Cap of it looking normal for comparison) This doesn't fully illustrate the problem, I also get some weird artifacts in game because of it. Makes all the bloom and particle effects look horrible.

I've found that if I then exit the game, go into the Catalyst Control Center and set the overall quality on the standard settings slider to anything other than its current setting (i.e. switch it from Optimal Quality to High Quality), save changes and restart the game, it looks fine. If I alt+tab, it goes back to being blurry. If I close the game, next time I open it its blurry again. I'm running a Radeon X800Pro 256mb, Athlon 64X2 4200+, 2 gigs of RAM. I have all the latest drivers for my hardware, have tried reinstalling etc. Any help is appreciated!

something to do with anti-aliasing, perhaps?

Well, I'm officially stumped. I don't think it was AA, as I had checked that before, and it was set to application preference. But I went into CCC and set Standard Settings to optimal quality (which selects 4x AA) and started the game. It showed up fine. Went back into CCC and put AA and AF back on application preference, and it stayed normal. Switched around pretty much every setting and now I can't recreate the problem I was having before, lol. So something fixed it, but I'm not sure what. =/
