Workaround Flickering
Hello together,

if somebody faces the flickering issue, here a solution which worked for me though.

Go to settings, stay in windowed mode. Turn DX12 on, select "ultra" at graphics. Restart game.
Flickering appears.

Than go to settings again, leave DX12 on but change to low graphic settings. Restart again.
Flickering has gone.

Than switch back again to "ultra" settings on the quality button. Restart again...

And: Tataaa success - no flickering :steamhappy:

I hope this might help many people if they face issues on DX12 and high graphic settings with flickering.

This did not help for me. I am on DX12 and have all on ultra. Still the flashing textures comes on the shore of the queen's Island. No other island's.

Thanks for confirming it, [x] paperwolf.
@Jebbus, sorry to hear it. Please check different graphics card drivers.
Reinstall DirectX from Microsoft website and Visual C++ from games installation folder or MS website as well.

Thats not the case. I think I figured the problem. Its because I got a mod that gives me 4 of thows island's. Think that makes this texture glitch. =)

I have the same problem with this mod. Did you played without this mod? Did you have a problem even without it? In the fourth hour of the game, the large island starts to flicker, but I also think it's the mod's fault.

Hey Jebbus

Thanks for the heads-up.

@Polish Pride,

Try removing the mod then. They can sometimes cause issues and we cannot offer any troubleshooting for modifications not coming from the official developer.
Alternatively, reach out to the mod's dev for assistance.

Sorry long time since I played without the 4 island mod now so do not remember. But I am pritty sure it did not for me. Because if it did I would have contacted support long time ago. =)

Hope the mod dev can have a look at this. I dunno how to contact the mod dev at all.
