Anyone Else Getting Severe Screen Flashing When Warping or Zooming?

Issues, Workarounds & Localization General Issues
1

SINCE UPDATE : Is anyone else experiencing intense full-screen flashing lately? For me, the entire screen blinks rapidly specifically when warping or when scrolling/zooming in and out.

It’s bad enough that one of my corp mates had to stop playing immediately due to photosensitivity/epileptic concerns. The flashing is extremely harsh and not just a minor flicker.

Before I file a full bug report, I wanted to check if others are seeing the same issue today.
**Is this happening to anyone else?

warping is like going to a bad Russian Rave.**

I’ve not had flashing while warping, but I do get it from various “cloud” effects at sites. It’s fixed by turning postprocessing down to Medium.

yes i had it too. turning post-processing and shader to low did not resolve the issue i’m experiencing

Yes, also gates, stations (player mainly, and inside and out), some ships and wormholes are not only flashing but their wire-frames are distorted beyond recognition.
Wormholes started being truly horrible yesterday, its literately painful.

I’m not sure if the two are related, but missile explosions are also broken. Missile impacts produce odd white rings around wrecks that are very distracting.

The missile explosion flashing has become worse and making it quite difficult to enjoy the game. constant flashing cant be good for photosensitive people/

I am too getting the very bright flashes with missile impacts. Its like a donut shaped very bright explosion that looks like a strobe light. Tried pretty much all possible graphic options. Turning post processing down makes them a little less bright but the flashing still happens.

I’m having the same issue with kinetic missiles creating weird bright rings.

Same thing happening to me in Abyss, its extremely annoying….

Edit: Nothing works for me DX11 changing shader or post processing.

27.2 Update seem to have fixed this for me.

It started for me after the update, pretty much every area I warp into flashes consistently unless I farm very far out. The color of the flash somehow correlates to the are of space that is zoomed into when I warp, so e.g. a red flare will cause red flashes etc.
