ui screen glitches

[runlykhel]

still getting the screen glitches showing multiple NMSS opening and overlapping, just as reported earlier.
just downloaded last update did not correct the problem.
I'm using the java that's recommended on NMSS down load page.

Update: It's September and still having this issue; is there ever going to be a fix? This is the only app effected like this.

I am having same issue, off and on, last few weeks, in the last week it got way worse almost unusable program. As a note using an i9 12900 and 3080ti Windows computer. I have also deleted and reinstalled the program.

Hear ya, i9-13900k, 32gb ram, RTX 3080 w/12gb vram here. NMSSE worked fine until 1.4…updates.

same problem here. ui starts glitching on first action: right click, scrolling and stuff overlaps and gets weird.

Thought it was just me and my laptop being funky attached to 2 other screens...

[Kokopelli-Bob]

an update note, I tried a different Java, type program, jdk the program works, but with the same issues. I do run 3 monitors, I disabled two of them, same issue. Windows 11. I have changed the refresh rates, no effect. also the scale on the 4k monitors from 100% up to 200# and no effect either. I also changed the res. to 1080 and no change. I am posting this as what troubleshooting I have done on my system. thanks

I searched here for my particular issue but could not find it, but maybe it is the same case for yours. I had to reinstall the vm where I had the save editor running and so downloaded the latest version of the editor, I had the folder with the previous one but wanted to get latest version, then installed latest version of java -in linux it was package java-latest-openjdk, this in Fedora Linux- and the save editor started as usual, showing the latest path where the save is, but not letting me selecting nor changing anything, not even the different saves in first tab, nor open new file, no errors all silent.
So tried downgrading java to 1.8, etc etc, but nothing changed.
Until I discovered NMSSaveEditor.conf I believe this files gets created when the program runs, so I deleted it and the save editor opened like clean, as the first time that ask to select file, and all worked again

TLDR: try deleting NMSSaveEditor.conf if you updated the save editor and is acting weird, maybe this works for you too.

well after reading all the comments again I believe that my issue had nothing to do with the ones reported here, I had no glitches in the screens nor tabs, just that could not change anything in the program as described in my comment above this one.

Agreed not related to our problem.

tried 3 different saves, same effect. disabling directx12 in java settings (Dsun.java2d.d3d=false -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true) and adding an exclusion rule to nvidia control panel (RX3070) didnt help. replacing latest java 8 (1.8.0-371b11) with corretto (8.372.07.1) changing resolutions and switching off second monitor didnt help either.

Save file doesn't matter. The glitches happen even without any save loaded when I click on view menu for example.

I'm still trying to figure this one out, as it doesn't happen on my PC at all.
If this is happening without any save loaded, that might be something to do with the account data and might be easier to debug. Can you please send me your log file as well as a copy of your save files (in zip format)?

@pitsch Would you be able to try running with the option -Dsun.java2d.opengl=true and see what that does?

[pitsch]

enabling hardware acceleration did not fix it. UI glitches got reduced quite a bit, but did not fully disappear, after i uninstalled oracle java to replace it with AdpoptOpenJdk https://adoptium.net/de/temurin/releases/?version=11

having the same issue

[jacozilla]

Have this issue on new rig - Win 11 with correct JRE 8 installed. However, on my older Win 10 machine with same JRE 8, and using same save file to edit, have zero issues at all.

I’ve tried deleting conf file as someone suggested but the duplicate screens and overlay glitching always happens on Win 11 machine but never on Win 10

-same JRE 8 and nms save files
-Win 10, 4790k + 2070 Super works fine
-Win 11, 13900k + 4090 has the issue, and I’ve tried several older versions - all same problem

tried nms editor 14.11, several 13.xx, and even reverted back to oldest ver I had on Win10 machine - v11.1.2. They all work fine on Win 10, all have same glitch on Win 11

dumb question - but should I be using newer version of Java on Win 11? I know JRE 8 is what we’re supposed to use, but Win 11 support is telling me to use Java 16?

p.s. for me it is also not just UI issue but corrupts the save file. If I edit my save using Win 11 + screen glitched editor, the save becomes inoperable. E.g. I can’t even open the save using the editor.

[jacozilla]

Tried using command line option as suggested, manually launched jar file with --> java -jar NMSSaveEditor.jar -Dsun.java2d.opengl=true

1. Used brand new singularity expedition save, so no issues of prior save file edits. Started expedition, found ship, jumped in/out to make save and quit.

2. Launched editor with command line option above, opened this fresh save and got these warnings (which I don't get if opening main save file which was last saved ~Oct 2022 w/ whatever was then current editor ver. I think 11.x). Basically, if I open a non-singularity version save file, get these warnings. If open old save file not touched since long before current version (~Oct 2022), then zero error msgs when opening.

3. Same screen duplication glitch as before, may not happen for few seconds or longer, but usually when clicking on something like resize cargo inventory the screen glitch happens. So same result using standard bat file launch or this extra command line option

4. Better explanation of Win 10 vs 11 editor results - fresh save file I edited on Win 10 machine does not have this glitch issue - but once I have edited the save and try using it on Win 11 PC, get two distinctly different behavior -->
   a) after I edited it - but NOT yet entered game using that save file, can not load into editor on Win 11 machine that has this glitch. It just hangs or waits forever trying to load and shows this error in console

   b) However, the save file seemingly works b/c can use it to enter game, see all modifications made such as new cargo sizes, material items added to inventory, multitools I had imported from prior exported files, tech blueprints installed into tech slots all working, etc.

Once I have entered game and then re-saved in-game, I can now open that save using editor on Win 11 - with similar warnings as before with what seems any singularity version save (even one never touched by editor, brand new fresh start)
Reading save file...

Finished.

So from workaround pov, I can just xfer my files to my Win10 machine to edit, then copy back over. But not sure why Win11 (or some aspect of new PC) has this glitch issue.

Attached is fresh save file that went through this evolution -> created singularity expedition, saved in-game -> edited w/ current ver editor on Win10 w/ no glitch or screen issues -> xfer to Win11 PC, played in-game & seems to work fine, saved in-game --> loaded into current ver editor once again to make few more inventory additions -> used in game few seconds to save in-game so it can be reloaded into editor

Not trying to necro-post but yeah this is still a thing. Going fullscreen used to fix it. Is there really still not any fixes/workarounds?

[js-ware]

it seems like it's related to mouse movements over the NMS-SaveFileEditor window. If I start it and just use the keyboard to move around the tabs and text fields I don't see any issues, but as soon as I move the mouse over the window it starts "glitching", like it's trying to place current element of the editor window where the mouse cursor is.

Windows 11 Enterprise 23H2 (22631.3958), AMD 7800X 3D, Nvidia RTX 4080. Java 8 update 421.

edit: I killed some running taskbar stuff, including the iCue software for my Corsair keyboard and mouse, and the issue went away. I'll try again after a reboot to see if that consistently fixes the issue for me.

edit2: I can confirm that quitting the iCue software for the Corsair mouse/keyboard before starting NMS-SaveFileEditor fixes the screen glitches for me.

edit3: I've found that if I quit iCue, use the editor and save it then quit, I can re-start iCue and continue to use the editor without having to quit iCue each time.

For others that experience an issue with the window replicating itself over and over on itself, I had to close MSI Afterburner (and the Riva Statistics Server), once done worked flawlessly.

[Kokopelli-Bob]

Thanks I will give that a try..
