So, I started the game on a brand new computer, and the thing is running ultra (sans ubersampling) smoother than the bumpmapping on Triss's ass.

Anyway, everything looks great, until I get to Flotsam. Pretty frequently in cutscenes (and also when I stop to meditate) Everything more than a few meters away from the action is completely black. It also crashed to desktop at one point, but that may have been unrelated. (that's twice it's crashed, I think when it's trying to autosave) I'm GUESSING it has something to do with the blur effect. If anyone has a fix, please let me know. I'd rather that than go through the prologue for, like, the fifth time.

I seem to have fixed it myself. Disabling "Cinematic Depth of Field" seems to have done the trick.
