Good day all.

I'm having a weird issue. I logged in a few ours after the 11/21 maintenance. Whenever I move, the models would sometimes create afterimages of themselves. They would leave a trail of animation stills behind them as the move.

This has happened both in space and on the ground. In space the surroundings look like it has a 'warp speed' effect to it, while on the ground it looks like I'm looking at a panel in a 'Flash' comic.

I've checked with other MMO's I have, and they don't have the same problem. Could someone please advice me on what to do?

First thing I tried. It did not work

Anyway, I restarted the game then turned on 'Postprocessing' as the yellow text above said. It seemed to have done the job.

Fingers crossed! For some it works, for others it only provides temporary relief or makes no apparent difference.
Sounds like the smearing/stuttering effect, which is one of the big post-S8 (actually post 21st Nov patch) graphic issue threads. See if it matches experiences here.
