hd 6950 flickering

Post » Thu Nov 11, 2010 11:45 pm

Code:
I have the slightest problem. I have a AMD Radeon HD 6950 ... I know you don't want to hear that because you're all nVidia guys but I went out and spent 330$cad just to play this game here it is.

The game runs perfect, 60 fps with vysnc on. Everywhere else the game runs hundred percent perfect. I would take a video of the problem but somebody has caught the exact problem on video.

Skip to the 55 second mark, every single time I walk into a building from outside the entire room flashes as if the HDR is re-adjusting. It happens exactly at 1:01, you'll see a black flash as he walks into the room.

It's not like game breaking but I'm constantly running outside and indoors it becomes very distracting. It happens on career mode as well. Also lighthouse, where there is lots of water the same sort of effect happens on the water so often.

I can't find a fix anywhere because whenever I search for flickering issues the only thing comes up is the fix for the "SLI Flickering"... Please help me out, I love you're game but I seriously can't play it. It happened on the demo, I've tried many different drivers, 10.5 - 11.4 same problem, I've tried different settings, different resolutions, uninstalled Catalyst Control Center everything... I bought the game thinking it might be just in the demo but it happens in the game too. And on the main menu some times there will be green lines out of place and the GUI acts very erratic and irregular. Like the lines will slightly jump out of place. If you reply I'll take video of that too but its not really important.

Someone posted this. I got the same problem. Can someone pls help me?

Suggest you read the 70+ page thread regarding this issue. It's linked in one of the Update threads posted by Crytek. Not hard to find.

It's a single 6950, no crossfire!

My 6950 doesn't seem to have this issue, hmmmm. Maybe it's an issue regarding drivers? For example, the 11.4 drivers are in beta so there could be problems if you use them.

That's the twitter account for the dude in charge of fixing issues like that. May be worth messaging him to let them know about the issue if it only occurs in rare cases

It's a single 6950 ;) . It's not flickering all the time, just noticed it when I went into that room shown in the vid.
