Anyone else getting weird screen artifact flickering?

[Hoppled]

I only really notice it in free play (likely because there's not much to look at) and it presents itself as these arbitrary little flickers of light/artifacts that are not too noticeable and only 'flicker'; there is no imprinted image of discolored or affected pixels.

I at first really thought this had to do with screen tearing. I play on a 60 hz monitor without vsync, so naturally I thought it was that. I played with vsync on and the problem still persists (for whatever reason the games tearing/jitters don't seem to be helped with vsync in this game anyway).

To note, these slight flickers are most noticeable on Mannfield/Champion's Field - but can happen on any. Its just the most apparent there for whatever reason.

My video settings are pretty standard: All off except transparent goalposts, performance. I messed with the FPS cap as well, doesn't seem to fix it.

For reference, the flickers sometimes look very similar to the artifacts found in this screenshot (from another user), although they did not have 'flickers' more so a constant artifact.

Anyone else experience this? I'm afraid of having a defective system somehow... it is playable and not very noticeable especially in game. But where the background is completely open in free play -- that is where I notice it (especially with movement of my car, which is initially why I linked it to tears).

Just letting you know, I'm pretty sure I've been experiencing the exact same problem.

Try update or reinstall graphic drivers. Also I highly recommend to submit ticket to support with some files :

Overheating or unstable GPU will cause this. Check your temps with a program like MSI afterburner and down clock your GPU slightly, like 50mhz - 100mhz and see if there is any change.

Keep in mind MSI Afterburner can cause game crash or won't load. At least used to happen before.

My temps seem to be fine, usually stays around 50-60 C in-game. Which is normal for an AMD card. It gets higher in other games with no weird flickers.

If you're seeing EXACTLY what is in the screenshot. That has to do with Rocket League settings. Not a GPU issue. I remember seeing this issue before way back in Alpha and at release. Was from messing with settings that weren't supported in the config files.

Have you messed with the ini files?

Should probably delete your config files and let it generate new ones.

Thanks for the input. The flickers are so 'split second' that it is hard to identify, but it is so that they replicate distorted images of certain particle effects (from boost pads, etc).

I tried replicating the issue on a friend's gaming laptop. It seems to happen there, but not as accentuated and it really are only the sparks from the ball colliding with the car that caused it there.

When you boost up to the ball in free play, sometimes the sparks will look glitched; much larger sparks will pop up very close to your FOV.

So I am unsure yet, but it could just be the game indeed.

Did anyone find a fix for this? Getting the same thing on my game

Update your GPU Drivers.

Also, locking this post as it is very old and looks similar, but isn't the same as the AMD GPU Driver bug.
