I've been getting a lot of artifacts while playing in OpenGL so I'm trying Direct3D. I've discovered that the lobby refuses to let me set the resolution higher than 1680x1050 (it'll let me select 1920x1200, but it always reverts back to 1680x1050). As a result, the client window is always smaller than my screen. When I tried fullscreen, buttons and things flicker continuously, so that was no good. In D3D windowed mode the images of the cars and peds are skinless when I go to register but that's acceptable. I just don't understand why it won't let me maximize the client window.

When I set it to OpenGL, I can make the window the size of my screen (1920x1200) and the client works fine, but as I mentioned, I get a lot of artifacts while in an event or other combat.

I have the latest drivers for my video card (Radeon 5870 1GB). I'm running Windows 7 64-bit and I have 4GB of memory.

I tried turning off the auto-follow camera and things seem to be working ok. Zooming in too closely seems to be what triggers the problem.
