DAZnBLAST Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 (edited) Flying along in the 2.9 version, AH64 weapons range miz. I get random flashes, almost as if the pilot I'm flying as is blinking. Tried deleting fxo and metashaders folders, also rolled back to previous nVidia drivers, deleted the same folders.. still weird blinking? NOTE this is with DLSS and SSS disabled.

DAZnBLAST Posted October 20, 2023 Author Share Posted October 20, 2023 (edited) Tested this again today. It starts blinking as soon as I start to tell George CPG where to look and my pilot TADS screen moves <-- then I see screen blinks.

DAZnBLAST Posted October 20, 2023 Author Share Posted October 20, 2023 UPDATE - the above TADS testing is correct, BUT the screen is also blinking even in Combined Arms.

Leg2ion Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 (edited) Running 2 x 27" curved screens, as the mission loads the RH screen displays a cockpit view, then blooms almost white, then darkens and flashes between multiple views. Once in mission all is OK. Updated to the latest nvidia drivers prior to the beta update and all is ok in the stable - just affecting the beta after yesterdays update.

Flappie Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Does it only happen over Sinai? Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trison Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Was wondering if anyone else is having a black flash every couple seconds. Like if you were to blink your eyes. It is only happening in the headset and not on my monitor. Was just about to start fiddling with settings to see if I can fix it but thought I'd ask here as well. I'm using valve index and my friends are using Quest 3 and Rift S. But I'm the only one of us having this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I experienced that today when I switched to 60hz on my HP Reverb, turning off DLSS and reprojection with a 4090. Didn't notice it up until then. I wanted to see what it's like with no DLSS/Super sampling, and no reprojection, just DLAA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwbishUP Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 (edited) I feel like I'm taking some major gamma ray bursts, screen just randomly flashing blinding white!

Tygaris Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I had this issue, too, when the MT version first came out. Random flashes every few seconds. Even more when a menu was open. Happened only when using OpenXR directly. When I set SteamVR as the default for OpenXR the problem went away. (HP Reverb G2, 6800). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moxica Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I also see flashes, as if there were lightning strikes behind me. In a certain mission in Caucasus, it is reproducable. All plane modules. Appearing after passing a certain point.

And it's happening on every map now. That sounds similar to what I am seeing, but it happens while the mission is loading so I cannot take a track. My left hand screen displays the loading splash screen, the RH screen is blinding white then flashes between multiple cockpit views quickly in succession, then all is normal. Happens in any map, any aircraft. In addition the MFD/helios screens start displaying data before the mission is flyable - which I haven't noticed before. Latest Beta, latest Nvidia drivers.

DAZnBLAST Posted October 21, 2023 Author Share Posted October 21, 2023 (edited) I’m seeing white flashes on Cauc and PG maps. The flashes are as quick as a blink of the eye.

Combined with the ghosting and global lighting coming and going. It's unplayable for me right now. Edited October 21, 2023 by rwbishUP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebphoto Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I was wondering if anyone else has seen what I’m going to try to explain. I flew a night mission with a full moon and scattered clouds. While flying I would get these brilliant flashes of light looked like lightning going off. I don’t think it’s lightning and if it is I don’t remember this in the sim before. One thing I did notice is it happens more when the FLIR is up on the HUD. I can’t remember exactly if it happened with the FLIR off the HUD but I don’t believe it did. I’ll have to look again and see. I did see this in the previous release a few times in multiplayer. Has anyone else seen this? Is it a bug or a glitch with the graphics card or something? Thanks I have a RTX4090 with the latest drivers installed, 128G RAM on a Intel 24-Core i9-13900KF Processor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappie Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I tried both track but I cannot reproduce the issue you describe. Maybe it is caused by a DCS option.

DAZnBLAST Posted October 21, 2023 Author Share Posted October 21, 2023 (edited) It’s worth noting, no flashing/blinking pre 2.9 and now I see flashing/blinking in 2.9.

Flappie Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Thank you. I cannot reproduce the issue. Maybe that's because it is DLSS related?
