PSYKOnz Posted October 20, 2023 Author Share Posted October 20, 2023 (edited) It's happening in the f18 as well, not sure what could be causing it, it's random as, definitely not a helios thing that for sure, could be a problem with one of the new dcs graphics settings maybe It's happening on both screens at the same time, so the flicker happens on the in game screen and the export screen at the same exact time on the same mfds, it's not rolling or alternating or anything Edited October 20, 2023 by PSYKOnz Tomcat, Tomcat über allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had it happening when I first started exporting things and it was because vsync was set on fast. But I know you've been at it long enough, and haven’t mentioned any issues like this before. …. Ummmm I’m at a loss. Even though its a new update, might delete the fxo and metashaders folder I saved games and run a repair, just to cover the basics…. Did you unplug it and plug it back in?.. sorry couldn’t help myself, my work week has been full of that 1 Intel i7 13700k, ASUS rog strix z790A, 64gigs G.Skill Trident DDR5 @6400Mhz, Nvidia RTX 4080FE, 2x 2TB Samsung M.2 NVME, 2x 1TB Samsung SSD, Corsair RM1000x, Corsair h100i 240mm cooler, Lian Li LanCool 3, VKB Gunfighter Ultimate, VKB STECS , MFG Crosswinds, Track IR5, 48” LG UltraGear OLED & HP 24” touchscreen for Helios, Streamdeck XL, DCS-UFC App, Corsair Virtuoso RGB Headphones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSYKOnz Posted October 20, 2023 Author Share Posted October 20, 2023 (edited) OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK, I HAS SOME NEWS! it only happens at dusk and at night (prob dawn too, I didn't check) I deleted the fxo and meta shaders, did a full repair checked everything, and had no luck, I think it has something to do with the lighting changes in the evenings, it does not happen during the day, it only happens in the evenings (and dawn I guess) and it does not happen at any time without exports. I reverted back to my old graphics settings and there was no change, it was not doing this before the 2.9 patch at all regardless of the time of day so far I have tested only with the F16 and F18 but I'm sure it will affect others I threw this together to show you, you can see the flashes in both MFDs, with 2030 being the worst, right at the end I included a snippet of 2030 with no exports for comparison, the only thing that's changing in the video is the time of day, all other things are identical not sure what causing it but I can replicate it easily now here is the mission file too DUSK.miz that way you can test (if you have the Viper or change it to F18) I would never have noticed it if it wasn't for Juice over at AWG showing off the new color tint things, I was trying them out at dusk (because pretty) when this all started, and no it's not those, the flashes are there regardless of the filter being used, even if none are being used, it's still there, I normally only fly during the day cause I'm lazy and a crap pilot haha hopefully, this is somewhat helpful in diagnosing the problem Edited October 20, 2023 by PSYKOnz Tomcat, Tomcat über allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabre05 Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I also am exporting my MFDs and noticed the random flashes on both the exported screens and on my main display in the Viper. I have flown the Apache a lot since the 2.9 update and have not observed either the exports or the main monitor MFDs flashing at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabre05 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Here are 2 tracks I just took just now. 191508 is with DLAA on and 192549 is with MSAA on. Quite a noticeable different with regard to the smearing and ghosting between the two. However the display blinking is the same for both versions.

TBarina Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Same problem at night with the exported Central MFCD in F18. It only occurs at night both in ST and MT. I didn't have this issue in 2.8. It's a new issue caused by 2.9 I've also tried to export the MFD to the same monitor as the sim and the problem appears as well. So it's not due to any multimonitor setting. Very annoying especially when the moving map is shown. Also the usual problem of the huge difference in gamma between cockpit MFD and the exported one is still present in 2.9 At the moment F18 is not yet certified for night mission Ryzen 7 5800X3D, MSI RTX 4090, 64GB DRAM, 2 x 1TB SSD, Triple Monitor 1920x1080p, Win11-Home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted November 30, 2023 ED Team Share Posted November 30, 2023 Hi, please attach a short track replay example, your dcs log and dxdiag we can look for clues. Also ensure you are not using any unofficial mods or shader edits when testing, delete metashader2 and fxo folders in saved games dcs folder and allow DCS to create new ones on a restart. It is probably worth doing a dcs repair or verify if steam and ensure windows and all drivers are up to date. thank you Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

malarcky Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) no mods, deleted metashader2 and fxo already DxDiag.txt dcs.log mfd.trk Update 1: The flickering only occurs when the resolution of the game its bigger than the main monitor resolution (for use with external monitor MFDs), it doesnt matter if the external monitor are on or off, the others planes are ok. Update 2: Seems to be related to the FPS, when limit is 180, flickering is constant, when fps limit at 120, flickering is almost gone.

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted December 4, 2023 ED Team Share Posted December 4, 2023 Thank you for the track, I was unable to reproduce on my system but will ask others to check with exports. Possibly refresh rate related, your monitors are running at non native refresh rates it seems Can you confirm the refresh rate of your monitors? Some are running at non native refresh rates.

Saruman Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) I can confirm, I found this thread while looking if someone had this same problem. I was flying F18 and exporting AMPCD to second monitor. It only happens during night missions and, for me, only since latest update. Flickering is not terrible or continous and not very noticeable in my case, it seems like a quick monitor refresh every 40-50 seconds and only on the second monitor (the one I usually export MFD to).
