Specs:
7900 XTX
Driver: 24.10.37.10

Fur doesn't seem to render properly for me. Instead of being entirely simulated and "fluffy", it's rendered in rigid chunks.
This doesn't change no matter what settings i use in-game. From lowest to "cinema" makes no difference with hair and fur.
Does anyone have an idea what might cause this and what can possibly fix it?

Have you tried 24.8.1?

[SplendidMaChao]

I did not. I switched to 24.10.37.10 because it fixed the completely broken Global Illumination (Causing shadows to be opaque black and highlights to be glaringly white).
So even if 24.8.1 would fix the fur / hair issue, i'd trade one problem for another. So i'm hesitant to roll back the driver just to check if i'm completely honest.

Wukong is playing fine for me on my 7900XT/ 7700X system. Might be worth trying?

Define "fine"
It's a known issue that Global Illumination is broken on that driver and has to be turned off (set to low in the in-game options). The upcoming driver (or the non WHQL 24.10.37.10 ) specifically fixes that.
Like i said, i'd be trading one issue for another.
It may fix fur, but it will break lighting.

by "Fine I mean It's actually playing really well with the latest drivers. No rendering or global illumination issues. My settings are set to very high so I can maintain a steady 110 FPS because on cinematic FPS is about 45 FPS. I also tend to run a very stripped down system on my gaming machine, no start-up apps other than what is necessary, any background processes I don't need are turned off and all bloatware possible is removed. If I have some time today I'll capture a few screenshots if you like?
