Flickering Screen

Post by jjsmcc »

Hi All - I'm really hoping you could please help. I'm currently using P3Dv4. I've got windows 10 version 1909 for some reason I've got a flickering screen. The screen is fine for the first hour or so, however after this - I just get constant flickering more or less unless I go outside the acft and back into the cockpit. Please could you advise on how to fix this. Many thanks! Best Wishes, James McCallum

This may not be your problem, but I had this when I installed P3D on a new Win 10 computer. I had to reduce the frame rates down enough until the flickering stopped. I had read this somewhere on another forum. My flickering has stopped. I have set my rates at 45. That was my problem.
Good luck

James,

How many monitors in your setup?

How old is your PC?

What are your PC specs?

Right click the P3D icon and under compatibility put the check mark for Disable full screen optimisations.
