Aircraft Flickering

Postby foxhound_66 » Sun Oct 15, 2017 1:07 am

Hi All,

Loving the update to V4 so far, but am having one seriously irritating issue.

During normal use, no large cities or complex weather systems my aircraft surfaces flicker intermittently. It doesn't seem to be specific to an add on or native aircraft, it happens on all of them.

I've attempted to turn reflections, shadows, AA (FI and P3D) on and off but the problem persists!

Is there anyone out there with the same issue or can lead me in the right direction?

Wanted to add some additional specs to see if anyone thinks this could pose an issue.

CPU: i5 6600k OC to 4.1 GHz
GPU: MSI 1070 GTX
RAM: 16GB GSkill
OS: Windows 10 64 Bit
HMD: Oculus Rift CV1

Will do some additional troubleshooting today.

Sure do. Short flashes of the aircraft model details (windows, gauges, yoke, etc) flash transparent intermittently.

Glad to hear it is known, makes the issue a bit more bearable!

Just wanted to include a recording of the issue.

Something odd I noticed, it only occurs in the right eye of the HMD.
