It's probably your graphics card not being up to par. My card got fried a couple of days ago and I'm using my old 250GTS as replacement untill I get a new one and I've been having this pixelation shit happen to me eversince I put my old card back in.

Its a bug I notice that occurs with AMD cards When I had 2x crossfire 6780HD. Now I'm on a 780 GTX NVidia card and don't experience this problem. Mafia game also had this issue with shadows appearing big black pixelated non transparent shapes. It maybe related to the 1GB of memory on your card, as most cards have 2GB+ now.

Does this happen only when you warp in? does alt tabbing or minimizing and maximizing resolve it?

Also adjusting the settings may resolve it, things that relate to memory eg. texture level, those alpha settings *bloom* etc...

Also suggest you update your drivers. Don't hate me if you've already done all this, I dunno your knowledge in the area :wink:

As I recall it only happened to me when I was MCing, and the "shadows" it left were usually easily distinguishable portions of what could be seen on the other client.

No sir, only the one client. I played before on this same setup and it hadn't happened. AMD, as Markoz said earlier. This is the only time it's happened to me. It's becoming more and more common, though.
