Hello !
Here is the problem, I'll try to explain it as best as I can, as English is not my mother tongue, I'll use screenshots to help me.
I recently downloaded the July 2013 UDK Beta ( Version : 10907, Changelist : 1715227 ), and installed it without any problems.
I've played the game supplied with it, just to see if everything was OK. Everything went right.
It's with the editor that I have a problem, in particular within the perspective viewport in lit mode.
Before you see the screenshots, I give my system specs :
I know my computer is a little bit old, and my graphic card is (afaik) not a common one, but I already used UDK ( in 2011 ) without problem.
It should be enough for the moment, as I'm more focused on the gameplay than on the graphics, anyway, here are several screenshots to illustrate the problem,
I don't put them on the forums as they are relatively big, and I don't wish to overload the page.
The screenshots are stored on my blog, and there's no ad.
When those screenshots were taken, my graphic card's drivers were up to date, I tested with an older one and it didn't change anything, maybe I should keep trying
with other ones ?
If I already used UDK before without have had this problem, what has changed since that could explain this issue ? Do someone know ?
I could download an earlier version, but then I would certainly miss important features ? And if I had to, which one should I try ?
I can still work in unlit mode but I won't be able to test, is there a possibility to test without lighting ?
That's it ! Thank you for reading !
