Screen Flickering/Splitting into 4
Hi all, my screen is flickering/splitting into 4 whenever I try to play the game.

https://youtu.be/CWEjJdzrX88

Makes the game fairly unplayable. Started happening after I upgraded my monitors to 4k and started overclocking my comp. Tried reinstalling drivers, verifying game files,

Problem sometime randomly stops happening.

Any help would be hugely appreciated. Game really sucks to play with this error.

OK three things

1. Turn DLSS OFF, this should fix the issue temporally

2. Overclocking can cause instability in games generally, and it's a known issue with UE5 (game engine used in The Isle), that high clock speeds can cause of instability and crashes (Having an Intel i9 CPU with naively high clock speeds causes some fatal crashes, down clocking helps in this case)

3. Do a bit of maintenance from your end, it may help, wont hurt

Update your GPU Driver and Windows OS to the latest versions

Verify the game files in Steam

Then Delete the Config folder to reset everything, see below (do this with every major update)

1. If running The Isle, exit the game.
2. Open File Explorer.
3. Click the address bar at the top.
4. Type %localappdata% then press Enter.
5. Find "TheIsle" folder. Open it.
6. Open the "Saved" folder.
7. Delete the "Config" folder. Note: This will reset any of your custom settings to their defaults, may also improve performance
8. Start the game.
