BUG: Graphic bug when using explosives

I am having graphic error always when using explosives. It kind of "resets" all tiles and shows rock tiles as sand tiles as well. It's really annoying and unplayable because I cant see which tiles I've mined and which not.

Here is screenshot to back up what I mean with this graphic error:

In screenshot there is 4 mined tiles below me (you can see footprints) and other tiles are solid rock. It shows them clear and mined but they are not. It becomes unplayable when enemies rush in.

I want to play this game because I was HUUUUUUGE fan of Minebombers back then and I've been waiting for this game.

Any ideas how to get the game working? 8€ is way too much for game what is unplayable.
I DO NOT WISH TO REFUND THIS But If I cant play it, I might just have to....

That does indeed look a bit strange! First I've heard about an issue like that. What are your computer specs? Especially the graphics card you're using.

CPU: Intel Core i5 4670K @ 3.40GHz
RAM: 16,0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 666MHz (9-9-9-24)

Hopefuly this helps. And thanks for very fast response!

Well it's certainly a very capable rig!

At this time I can only advice to try updating your ATI graphics drivers. Try the latest and perhaps a bit older as well and see if that helps.

In the meantime I'll add a new video setting to the game that sets how the vertex buffer is handled. I have no idea if this helps but it's worth a shot. I'm aiming at pushing a new update later today anyway so the timing with your post was spot on.

If the above don't work I have another thing I can try but that includes creating a separate build to test with you. Let me know how things go and we'll see if this is necessary.

I will try it! Thank you!

Seems like it works after driver update! Atleast did not encounter that bug after short game session. I will inform if it happens again. Now I can start streaming this game and recommend this game to my friends! Thanks Antti for fast response and help!

You've done great job with this game!

Antti [developer] 21 Oct, 2016 @ 1:39am

That's great to hear! Did you update to the latest ATI drivers? For future reference can you mention the driver version in case anyone else experiences the same issue and comes across this thread.

I'll still include the new video setting I mentioned about. Who knows, it might help someone else with another issue.

Shoetari 21 Oct, 2016 @ 2:01am

I updated the 16.10.2 version of ATI drivers. It is version that auto update feature of "AMD Radeon settings" -software recommends to install

Antti [developer] 21 Oct, 2016 @ 2:50am

Okay, thanks for that and hope that game runs smooth from now on!
