Do you have different resolutions on the screen and on the game? I've sometimes experienced that when vieweing youtube videos not in fullscreen.

Try disabling all visual mods just to see, whether this is caused by a third party modification.

i'm not sure how this works but if i take a video or screenshot of unmodded aoe2 and play around with resizing it such as by clicking and dragging the window to various sizes, these patterns come and go and shink and grow..

somehow this pattern is built into the unmodded fog of war as some kind of optical illusion that is only visible at certain (re)sized resolutions..

its obvious in OBS and can be difficult (or impossible, i haven't figured out how) to make it go away in recordings.

That's what I was refering to. Try changing the resolution of your monitor or the in game one. Do you play in fullscreen or in window?

windows compatibility - > disable display scaling on high DPI settings

just figured out that, if i uncheck above the issue goes off. and if i enable that i get the same issue.

but if i keep it uncheck then i can see only a quarter of the game screen rest of the screen goes out of the monitor.

I still believe it's an issue with the resoluciĆ³n of your monitor or game. That setting you mention is related to resoluciĆ³n (Dots Per Inch).

Try first setting the resolution of your OS to the recommended resolution and then adjust the game resolution to the identical resolution e. g. 1920 x 1200 or 1920 x 1080.

Please try updating the graphics drivers... I don't think this is game related.
