MarvK Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Starting a new thread here as I don't want to be hijacking a couple of other threads on a similar topic. Instead of rehashing everything all over again, here's a couple of links to what I am experiencing with the Yellow/Orange screen flashing, and a quick screenshot; https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=283793 https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=283756 As suggested, I have since updated my 446.14 NVIDIA driver to 452.06. Results are the same, no change. I still have the Yellow/Orange Flashing on the Normandy Map. These are on the previous 2 OB updates. 2.5.6.53756 and 2.5.6.54046 This is what I did to try and resolve it. Updated driver to 452.06. No change Ran a repair. No change Windows is up to date No O'Clocking on my video card. So I decided to roll back 2 versions to the latest OB/Stable. 2.5.6.52437 just to prove to myself that I'm not crazy. :unsure: Guess what? I had no flashing or graphic problems. :huh: So I believe something definitely has changed. What it is, i have no idea. I'm attaching the last log files for each version. I still suspect it's in the WWII asset pack, flak bursts or maybe the new aircraft damage effects. Caucasus, PG, Nevada maps I don't see this. But I don't fly the WWII planes on them either. As an OB user, I'm trying to explain or provide as much info as I can to the Devs. Please let me know what else I can provide.

NeMoGas Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Strange Graphical Glitch So not sure how to reproduce this glitch but it seems to come and go every time I play on the Syria map. Tonight I was seeing it every minute or two. Here is a video The glitch happens at about 27 seconds. Here is a freeze frame of it. This glitch is reminiscent of the glitch we had a few months back caused by tire skid marks on PG. Not sure if that is relevant but maybe it's related somehow? Here is a screenshot from that bug that was squashed. And another Not sure if I'm the only one seeing this but thought I would post it anyway. Here are my system specs. Intel i7 10700k Nvidia GTX1070 32Gb RAM DCS is on an SSD All drivers are up to date. DCS is on the most recent OB version Thanks for your time, hope I can get this sorted out.

MarvK Posted August 31, 2020 Author Share Posted August 31, 2020 You are not the only one seeing this. I am seeing this as well on the Normandy map. It seems not to be map specific. Thanks for the video, might be related to explosion rendered graphics? https://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=245838&d=1598461443 More here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=284685 Marv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normandy map, P-47 Hot start. you can start seeing it as I approach large town with the large fires. Closer I get the more frequent it happens. About 3+ minutes into the mission. In cockpit view.

NeMoGas Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Thanks Bignewy. It seems as if it's not a Syria map issues as I originally thought since I have now seen it on Caucasus as well. I have just been playing mostly Syria since release and never saw it before on other maps. I also disabled all my OC's and the issue is still present as Marvk has said. I seem to notice this when changing altitudes, mostly when climbing. I don't have any tracks because I have write track disabled. However I have turned them back on and will try to save one if possible next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirrah Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Not sure if it helps. But this issue might be hardware (or driver) related I've spent many hours flying in the Syria map on my VR computer (specs in signature) and I never seen this issue. Not once. Lately I have been doing some Syria mission editing (and testing) on my work laptop and I saw exactly what NeMoGas showed in his post. Work laptop specs: i7-6700, Nvidia Quadro M2000M, 32GB ram.

Ithronwise Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Not only on the Syria and the Caucasus map, but also on the Persian Gulf (experienced in a F/A-18C) and NTTR (experienced in a Su-33 and a MiG-29S). The first time I saw this was just after the last major update. It happens every time there is an explosion / fire (on the ground or in the air) in the field of view.

MarvK Posted September 23, 2020 Author Share Posted September 23, 2020 (edited) Unfortunately, this one still exists for me, at least on the Normandy map with WWII assets. :( I can provide another trk file, but the one I provided before, is still relevant. ***Edit** I should say this is latest OB 2.5.6.55363 23/09/2020 Edited September 23, 2020 by MarvK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dorianR666 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 It happens every time there is an explosion / fire (on the ground or in the air) in the field of view. all the people ive seen with Nvidia cards report yellow/orange flashes. meanwhile I, with AMD card, see black flashes. as you say, it happens when aircraft explosion is in FOV. since this happens on both Nvidia and AMD cards, its confirmed to not be caused by some driver issue but bug in ED's code. attached images are two consecutive frames taken from a video recording in latest OB, on AMD RX 580 CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600X GPU: AMD RX 580 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarvK Posted November 9, 2020 Author Share Posted November 9, 2020 Still have the orange/yellow flashes here too. No change in the last 2 updates. Also seems to be related to WWII assets. I can fly all day in a bare bones mission, (no assets) on the Normandy map, and have no flashes. As soon as I start in a mission with WWII assets, it starts again. Latest OB. Nvidia card here also. I can upload a trk file again, but it’s still the same result as the one before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted November 9, 2020 ED Team Share Posted November 9, 2020 if you have a track please upload it, I need as many replays as we can get. I am having trouble reproducing now, and when I do it is after a very long MP session and the track is no good for reproducing. thanks Forum rules - DCS Crashing?
