Screen Flicker

[OriginalGrubby]

Not really sure how to explain this, or how to fix it, but every so often the screen will flicker. It might be the whole screen, might be the sky, might be some trees in the distance, but it's very much annoying.

Anyone know how to fix it? Pretty sure it's down to some GFX setting since it's not happening in any other game that I play.

Сonfirm, I also encountered this. The flickering has nothing to do with what is happening on the screen. Even if you leave the control and do not move the camera, it periodically flickers.

Update your GPU drivers. I was having bad flickering on fields until I got the latest drivers from nvida.

Same. At first it was annoying, and then I guess I got used to it and it's now just innocuous. But hopefully it'll be addressed at some point.

Volumetric fog was creating this problem for me. I turned it down and the flickering went away.

Thanks, I will try this.

I tried everything to fix this. What 100% will work is installing reshade. Flickers are fully gone.

yeah I just tried lowering the fog to medium then low then back to high it was the same results but I can barely notice them only happens when i am in cab. hopefully in next update it will fix.

Ah, darn. Was really hoping that would work for you too. Sorry!

I'm still getting in-cab flickers/glitches but they've stopped when I'm outside.

Reshade solved this problem for me

[BrownStone]

I might try changing Directx12 to 11 in the game xml file see if that helps.

I get it every now and then on a 3090ti, using the most up to date drivers

[BrownStone]

I did change the D3d12 to 11 the flickering is barely there but I had it turned up to very high for the fog on low and medium setting for fog was completely gone. so it helped a bit, i would just wait for dev's to bring out a update.

Don't hold your breath. There are so many PC configurations that it's unlikely they will have a solution that works for all of them. Also, FS22 had a similar issue as well.

I have used the same fix I used in FS22, which does not involve installing a third party application like Reshade. This may possibly help the OP as well since they're using Nvidia, as am I. Not sure what GPU you have though.

For Nvidia users, try going to Nvidia control panel, under 3D settings, manage 3D settings, and under global settings because it appears you cannot change this particular setting for a specific program. So under global settings, scroll down until you see Shader Cache Size. Click the setting it's currently set to and you'll get a down arrow, then select disabled. This was the fix for me in FS22, and preliminary testing in FS25 seems to have helped.

Might work, might not.

Just got this as well last night. Never had it in fs22, everything is up to date as well. Will try some of your suggestions and see what happens.
