Captcosmos Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I have the same issue. In my case all the screen goes black and it seems like it´s at particular angles when the sun is reflecting directy to the "camera" from the canopies glass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pierrewind Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) I am getting the exact same issue. Mirage 2000 over sea, sunset, screen flickers when looking towards the sun. Happens in external and internal views . That's on MP. Note: When turning the head away from the sun, the box follows the sun. For example, loonking straight at the "sun" I get a full black screen. Looking mostly away from the sun, on the opposite side of the sun, the box doesn't reach. (not too sure about up/down, but similar stuff appear to happen) It was at low level. As soon as I climbed It was ok again. Was heavy flicker at low level, and then above 200ft the flicker reduced at at 300 it was almost gone... maybe related to sun angle?

Ithronwise Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 (edited) I have investigated this bug a little bit and it seems it is related to the wind settings combined with lighting at night (at least in my case). But only the Marianas map is affected. I created test missions with the same settings on Caucasus, Persian Gulf, Syria and Marianas: - LHA-1 Tarawa, 25 knots, course approx. 225 - 1 AV-8B for the Player - 3 AV-8B uncontrolled aboard - Time is 21:00, Date is 12th July 2002 - Cloud setting is High scattered 1 - Wind is 4 knots, 65° With wind settings the black flickering appears, without it is gone. Only on the Marianas map I could reproduce this. Here is a video to demonstrate it.

Denwagg Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Same issue I have a intel i7-11700 32gb ddr4 3600 ram and a RXT 3080 GPU. Started having this problem tonight after new beta install. Black Squares lasting for a half second at the most. Not completely covering the screen. Latest Nvidia Drivers 497.29.Used DDU to wipe video drivers before install .

Bentman Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I also think it is sun angle. Attached are a couple of track files - the 1st starts at 0455, flickering starts a minute or so in, apparently once the sun gets close enough to the horizon. The 2nd starts at 0520, and once the sun is high enough above the horizon, the flickering stops. I noticed this a couple days before the patch to 2.7.9.17830, and see the same thing after it. Emptied the contents of the fx and meta2 folders, no change. av8bNA_black_box_0455-0500.trk av8bNA_black_box_0520-25.trk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hinkey Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Same problem here. After updating to 2.7.9 (23 Dec 2021) started getting random black squares. RTX 2080 Ti Ryzen 5600X 32GB Win 10 Pro Updated to the latest nvidia WHQL drivers (497.29) and did a "Check all files (slow)" DCS repair. The attached track is not great but the boxes do appear right at the end in the landing flair (no idea how to fly the Viggen btw so the track is a total embarrassment). black boxes.trk 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the best weapon we've got against bugs. I see you were flying in a sunrise setting over Tbilissi. I cannot reproduce the flicker on my end. I tried a second time using the latest NVIDIA driver (video below). Can you please tell me at what time you see the flashing occur? 1 Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord.

Flappie Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 (edited) A tester has just discovered the Corsair RGB control software (iCue) can cause screen stuttering when playing DCS. Can you please confirm you're not running iCue? And in case you are, can you check if stuttering persists once iCue is closed?
