I have a MacBook Pro 15" Late 2011 I run Windows in Bootcamp my Specs are..


Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 (It came with 4Gb pre-installed but 16Gb is supported)
Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6770M 1024 MB
Network 4MbpsNeverwinter is running at 20Fps Max 26Fps
Is this only with me?
I get a msg about my graphic card not being supported.. Ummm... Could I get support with this?
I feel that if i have to go with lower graphics with this system I might just as well switch to another game otherwise its a waste of my investment...
I also get flickering environment lighting in many levels especially in Helm's Hold and Pirate Skyhold but not so much in others is this because of my system?

This is a video of bugs that i have spotted. I will upload more...

as far as I have seen it doesnt stay in that state but passes over very quickly...

My friend didnt exactly spawn in the same rock as me but was in a similar situation.. here is the post..

    I am bumping this a bit just to say my friend also faced the same problem except on his PC the flash of light stays for sometime and then goes away... His Specs are:

    4Gb RAM
    Nvidia GT 520 2Gb
    500 HD
    i3 Intel
    1Mbps

    Considering its Nvidia I dont think this because of compatibility issues...

    are you using the bootcamp drivers or the amd drivers? b/c bootcamp drivers are almost never updated and are current for ~ 2 months after purchase. also is friend using default video settings or looking for a happy place. are you looking for a happy place? try adjusting shaders and (i think its called) lens flare. it would help if you are in the select few able to play to test this. i am not so unable to try to recreate your experience.

    summary: jiggle the handle and see if it goes away. check drivers.

    What do you mean when you say happy place? All graphics are default.. The driver is up to date... I wish I could check and tell you if the shaders made any difference...

    happy place. sorry, americanism. my bad manners. i meant are either of you looking for setting that work for you or are you going with defaults. youve said defaults then. you didnt say which driver. next time we get to play try adjusting settings till errors are minimal or gone. i rarely use defaults as i like to undertask my card.

    I tried downloading and installing the amd catalyst mobility driver after cleaning the driver with driver sweeper and then removing it with drive manager but it says the graphics adapter is not recognized... I have the latest bootcamp drivers released in 2012 as they are the only ones that recognize the graphics adapter.... I dont mind finding a happy place with the setting but the launcher tells me on first run that the graphics adapter is not recognized... and asks me to play on low.. I have played darksouls and witcher 2 on high on this config without a drop in my frame rate. I dont see why i shouldn't be able to play this on high. If I try to go higher on the settings it starts to lag.
