Trees flickering

Post by Miketeg »

Hello, am I the only one that have issue with trees when moving from summer to autumn and from autumn to winter?

Trees flicker green / orange / green / orange (autumn)

Or orange / no leafs (winter)

That's pretty annoying.

It did that randomly, on base map, even without any mods. Sometimes, just a reload of the map fixed it, sometimes, nothing is working, sometimes, just a "sleep" will have it fix...

Is it something with my graphic settings?

Do they also flicker when you are standing still? Could it be transition between high quality range and lower quality for further away shots?

It's almost like textures aren't cleared from memory, and old ones continue to show periodically as the screen refreshes.
I have seen the same thing happen with field textures in all versions of the game. Might boil down to bad memory management outside the "circle".

I've been having the same issue on Elm Creek. The paved roads flicker when there is snow on them as well.

I had same issue but I dropped the graphical settings from max down to very high and that solved the issue for me.
Since then I've been slowly increasing the settings to see what's breaking it. No conclusion yet...

I had the same issue, but with me my Grass is Flickering to Orange and Green on Silverrun. With Hours of Testing, i found out the Problem. I set the Shader Quality from Very High to High. Now it works

I have found that in "Game Settings," selecting a "Fixed visual month" has greatly reduced the flickering.

Almost all issues with flickering seems to be because the gpu is overloaded.
That is why reducing graphic settings fixes is.

I reduced the settings abit, and just got a new 4k screen that added even more FPS (turned down the resolution scaling from 200% to 100%). Locked 60fps all the time, but still flickering.
