    @DarkStarr , I went into Steam's settings and cut off Shader Pre-caching and now every scene isn't starting off in the black/white blob render. I'm still getting it, but not as often. Before cutting off this setting, every scene was doing it, and every time I reentered the scene it did it. Thought this might help pinpoint what is causing it. Not sure if this issue applies to stand-alone players or just Steam. Also, was wondering has this occured on non-AMD GPU systems.

    i'm a standalone player. i've only had it happen once. even then, it wasn't full-on black-and-white, just posterized.

    I should have said that the landscape is mainly Black/White. The sky seemed fine, but the landscape textures were entirely black/white. I was just thinking that maybe the pre-caching of the shaders might be exacerbating the issue somehow. This is a typical example of what I'm getting...
