Aluminum Donkey Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Gripe as per thread title Anyone else getting this? It always kinda did it, but now it does it a whole lot with the newest update! Top half of screen flashes white. Sim performance is great otherwise.

Aluminum Donkey Posted August 22, 2020 Author Share Posted August 22, 2020 Hi, could you please provide a short video clip? You can use the Windows game bar to record a video (Win + G). could get around to that one day I guess :) I was just wondering if anyone else has it. No clouds seems to be no problem. Happens to me a *lot* in Normandy but happens elsewhere too.

Aluminum Donkey Posted August 25, 2020 Author Share Posted August 25, 2020 It may have been related to Nvidia Gamma Correction. When set to Off it barely does it. I thought it may have been my graphics card memory overclock, but that doesn't seem to be it. Definitely seems related to Gamma Correction.

jspec3 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Have noticed the same issue as well since the update, but I can't say I've ever noticed it before. This is in Normandy, but that's the only map I've had a chance to fly yet. I'll try setting the gamma correction in Nvidia to 'off' and see if it helps, thanks for posting.

I noticed it a lot in Normandy as well, less so in other maps. Gamma Correction "Off" certainly seems to have fixed it!

MarvK Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Have any of you had the yellow/orange flashes? I tried to save a track file, but i always get an error saying “can’t open last track” or something to that effect. I will say though, when I get the yellow/orange flashes, it seems to be above the horizon. So maybe it is cloud related? This is on the Normandy map as well. I think it might be related to the WWII flak effects, or the new damage model effect. I can’t seem to pin it down on one specific thing. I will try turning off the nvidia setting and see if it makes a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarvK Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Turning off “no gamma correction” setting Makes no difference. Still have the orange/yellow flashing. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarvK Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Managed to capture a screenshot of what I'm seeing. I find it hard to believe I'm the only one seeing this. :( This is after today's patch, .54046 and deleting FXO and Metashaders2 files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jspec3 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 (edited) Got that last night along with the white flashes when flying a mission (Epsom campaign in Normandy). Looks alarmingly like a videocard overheating/dying. Glad to hear it's probably not that at least! Naturally I forgot to try turning the off the gamma correction before I started the mission, hopefully I'll remember if I get a chance tonight. Looks like there's an open beta update today, so maybe the issue will be gone anyway. (edit - sorry looks like you posted while I was typing. That looks a little more dramatic than what I was seeing, but since they are 'flashes' it's hard to say. If I have time I'll fly again tonight and see what's what. Thanks for posting) Edited August 26, 2020 by jspec3 added more info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know people like new stuff, and I'm looking forward to the Typhoon myself. But, I think it would be in ED's favor to not bother with new content and improve the simulation engine instead. Fix all the graphics bugs! Flashing clouds, flickering WW2 propellers, the infamous yellow/orange/black flashing, and generally improve performance (Vulkan API!!) and just polish the sim engine overall. There are enough bugs that people are irritated by it, and that's just no good for a video game that people have spent over a thousand bucks on over the years!
