Screen washout/flashing

Post by tjones1777 »

I'm having issues with the screen flashing/washing out as soon as game starts. Intro splash and videos are fine but as soon as the game screen opens, the screen appears to be washed out, badly pixelated and flashing. Is worse and spreads from top left to bottom right. If looking at the station walls, screen is fine but as soon as you look away the symptoms start. I've tried reinstalling the game from scratch even going so far as to deleting all references to X4 on the machine and installing it to 2 different hard drives - one is NVMe the other is HDD. Always the same. I haven't played the game in awhile, was in 5.1 version I think. I have included a link to a Radeon Replay videohttps://1drv.ms/v/s!AsbXW3qdPO0fhfor7Cs ... A?e=xUpvcH and attached DxDiag of my system[url https://1drv.ms/t/s!AsbXW3qdPO0fhfosVCO ... w?e=tbpV26][/url]. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the video, and the DXDIag. It looks like you might be having the same problem as people were describing in this thread, which seems to be caused by the latest AMD driver update. Maybe try rolling back your drivers to the previous version, and see if that solves it.

Thank you for the quick response. Those sound like the same problems. Should've followed my gut and rolled back the drivers. Thanks!
