Today (03/02/26) all the wormholes all start flickering and strobing. I not sure if this a glitch or a ‘new style’ but it really hurts eyes, bad for epileptics and sensitive eye people, lots from our corps decide to stop playing log out for today as we in wormholes lots. It also make visual ID of skybox colours and features hard.

If error please fix, if on purpose, please please please rethink and make it stop!!!

The WH are great already, they not need changing. [@CSM](https://forums.eveonline.com/groups/csm)

Other people have the same issue?

Edit: Nope, I went and visited one, that is definitely not normal. No changes to my graphics settings in or out of game made any difference. Full graphics covered part of it, but the center was still flickering.

Bug report it.

Now I have a headache from the flickering.

Headache as well. Filed bug report too. This will impact many users of our Pathfinder services, I’m sure.

Not only wormholes. Hitting rats with rockets has similar effect

Flickering effects still appear on missile impacts. Wormholes seems fixed for me.
