[CLOSED]Flashing buildings/trees (z fighting?)

When I have black hot or white hot enabled on the TGP, if I look at buildings or trees that are far in the distance, it makes it look like they are shimmering or changing between white and black repeatedly. Perhaps it's z fighting?

My graphics settings are all on max except depth of field is OFF.

I get this too, its like viewing a row of LED lights on TV (they flicker like a 'Mexican wave').

Same thing happens here.

+1 was wondering why this hadn't already been reported but never got round to doing it myself yesterday.

My rig is in sig...

i have the same z-fighting issue

Same problem here. Plus I get some flickering during the pod cool down. Made a short video of it here (whot and pod cool down):

Me three; same problem

The effect seems to be like the objects become semi-transparent, resulting in odd appearance and flickering. I have seen this on bridges, and on Shilkas when viewing them through the TGP in black hot or white hot mode. In normal TV mode they render correctly.

While a thermal image might have some ability to see "into" an object (if there are hot things inside, like an engine), I doubt I should be able to see through a concrete road bridge clearly enough to make out the support pylons and the stream running under it! :-)

I think it may be related to HDR. Try turning HDR off and see if that changes things.

Same here, also using NVidia card. As far as I know, this has nothing to do with HDR, as I have it set to off.

I'm also getting this issue, and I have an AMD Radeon 6950.

I get this same issue with my A10Cthrough TGP using BHOT and WHOT modes.

A-10C TGP Flashing

I know this has probably been reported already but I can't find it. The A-10C TGP still has flashing objects and is nearly unusable in black hot and white hot modes. Hopefully this will be corrected soon.

me too

We got the same problem, in my virtual squadron at least six or seven reported that, we use both nvidia and radeon graphics cards.

Same here.

[REPORTED] Z-fighting with TGP in WHOT and BHOT

Not sure if this is a 1.5 bug or a long standing one but most vehicles flicker and you can see aircraft through hangar walls/ceilings.

Same to me :(

Have this problem in some other games also......so it must be a failure of NVIDIA drivers?

its a long standing issue. I have had it since 1.5 was released but I deal with it for now as it isnt really a show stopper for me.

SiThSpAwN,

A quick check in a quick mission seems to suggest that this has indeed been fixed. I saw some very minor flickering at the base of a bridge, but that might be a separate issue. I'll verify more thoroughly when I have time (although most likely someone else will do that before long).

All in all, looking good, looking good :) Thanks!
