switch the quality of your textures and/ or the quality setting of the main issue. i.e. grass, lighting, volumetrics, trees, water etc. Dependant on where your issue lies.

Run the game with the new settings. Then change them back. If this doesnt help, do the same but also change the api.

I don't know if I've seen the exact problem that you're describing, but I've seen a lot more problems like it since the Naturalist update. One place that you can find _tons_ of flickering is the moonshiner bar. The bar itself has epilepsy or something post-update.

for me turning the geometry level of detail all the way down stops the black flickering from happening, but then the game doesnt look as good because 95% of the grass is gone. its disgusting that this is still an issue...
