I have the same problem. First thing that'll  be asked is if everyone with the problem is using Omega drivers. Two so far, myself included.

When you say "latest" version of the Omega drivers, which version is that?  5.1 is out now.



Sorry, that 5.1 cat release is NOT an Omega.  ATI has released the 5.1.

I've noticed that these show up where trees should be and act like wrongly portrayed shadows.

So it's perhaps ATI specific ?

Do you have your vertical sync set to always on?  If not you should try that.

You still see 'em w/ vsync on.  I have noticed that this shows up in my shift f4 ground view, but I can toggle back to another view like short (sft f3) or full (f1) and it goes away.

I think I usually only see that artifact when in ground view looking for gv's.

Try moving to a diff. viewable distance, and see if like me it goes away.

(edit)  nividia fx5200 here w/ omega
