    twistos1 got a reaction from DaoNayt in Jagged Shadows,Pop in,Low LOD and jagged aa   
    guys I actually fixed the issue yesterday but it didn't last long, it was an expensive solution that only lasted 20 minutes. I bought a new motherboard, new cpu and ram and a new ssd. I installed windows (the only drive installed in my pc was the new ssd) and then I played no man's sky for like 10 minutes, the game looked gorgeous, no jagged edges even at low settings, then I decide to mess around with the graphics settings and I set it to ultra, and right after that it started to look like shit again, jagged edges everywhere, I tried going back to the settings I was using before but didn't work, the problem came back and everything looks like shit again. I don't know if this helpful or no but I thought I should share it /: ( I only have the jagged edges problem though, I've never had pop up problems or anything like that)

    Check this post which very clearly demonstrates that our problem is lack of mipmapping. This did not get much attention but this is PERFECT.
    You can Google mipmap on /off and with mipmap off you will see the exact shimmering that I'm having in all of my games. Now what hardware component is related to this, I do not know but if somebody has any idea about this, please help us. 
     
    I read through Wikipedia article about mipmapping and it says that lack of mipmapping causes aliasing and moiré pattern.
     
    Moiré patterns which are caused by a lack of mipmapping manifest as texture shimmering.
     
    Search for mipmap on/off on YouTube. In Minecraft lack of mipmapping shows moiré patterns that we are referring to as shimmering. 
     
    Here's a video where the guy explains how disabling mipmaps causes shimmering/flickering.
     
    I made a playlist that shows this shimmering problem in various games that is very similar to this guy's tutorial.
