    When is Ubi planning on fixing the SLI flickering issue?

    So I had this game for a while but never installed it. Got around to it cuz I wanted to play it and it's flickering like crazy.

    What I can gather is it is an issue from 1.9.0 patch which was a month or two ago. What gives? Is there an ETA on a fix? I tried a suggested "fix" and it made the game super blurry, basically unplayable.

    may i ask you what is your system .cfg sir as many users still have this issue

    did you install / use the geforce Experience Software with your drivers ?

    what driver version and or geforce experience version are you running and on what 2 GPU's ?

    and are you running the current version of the game 1.9.0 ?

    do you have only the base game ?

    or do you have the season pass and all of the DLC installed ?

    Unfortunately we do not have an ETA right now. But this is an issue they are currently investigating.

    How I Corrected my flickering bars on my rig in FC4

    In the past I had a lot of screen flickering, to a point it was impossible to play the game. I made a video with my phone and emailed it to my friend in Canada. He replied to me and told me it was a V-sync issue. I do run Nvidia Experience, but this dose not correct the screen flickering. I also set the performance @ 6ticks on the scale Nvivia Experience. The higher you go may produce video stutter.

    My rig: 2- Gforce GTX 580 cards running in SLI
    16GB Ram ( 15.97 GB Usable )
    3- 27 inch monitors
    Running FC4 @ 5910X1080 Resolution
    Video Driver: 347.88

    I opened up the FC4 Control Panel where you save, Quit, Resume the game ETC. Select the video option and make sure the V-Sync is turned on. Then select Advance settings, set that to NORMAL, Tripple Buffering is set to OFF


    I am in hopes this will take care of your issues?
