PES 2008 rated as "Excellent", but broken shadows (¿?)
Why is Pro Evolution Soccer 2018 rated as "Excellent" if the shadows and icon over the player are totally wrong and make the game unplayable? Is there anything I am missing about configuration of this game? I am using 30fps in settings to have a very smooth gameplay. I am using Nvidia 387.92 drivers.

Nvidia rating is many times wrong. But where did you find this rating, I don't see it listed anywhere. 30fps??? why? This is the opposite of smooth.

I can't comment on that game in particular, but I do know that sometimes shadows can be broken due to driver issues. I can't explain why, but reinstalling existing drivers or installing newer ones fix the issue. You might try that.

[/quote] The ratting is shown when launch the game in 3D mode the 1st time after installing any driver (the green/yellow ugly text, you know). I don't know why but I have to choose 30 fps (as I said) in the settings to have smooth gameplay. If I choose 60 fps = choppy, even though the usage of hardware is low. I know usually is the opposite, but this game run like that. [quote="SnickerSnack"]I can't comment on that game in particular, but I do know that sometimes shadows can be broken due to driver issues.

PES 2016 version had a good fix in this community, and the same fix was usefull exactly the same way for PES 2017 (it was the same engine). But now the luck has gone and that fix has nothing to do with PES 2018.
