im getting flashing pixels in one of my tracks. anyone know what causes it and how to stop it? the tracks pretty much finished but i dont want to share it cos of this. its only at the start but i feel like its just as bad as the 2 texture glitch that you see in nooby tracks help?

Most likely you have 2 or more light sources too close to each other. Delete or move.

Will attempt, thank you

Ya, it's probably lights. Could have something to do with fire or explosions also.

This is mostly caused by lights that cast shadows such as bulb spotlight and fluorescent

Wall lights/pointlights are a good way around this

It happens with point lights too though. Oh and fire effects have a little point light surrounding them too kinda. So if you have some other lights near a fire, then you might wanna uncheck the light box from that fire effect maybe.

move around your objects if you can to change the cameras angle, otherwise use custom cam. usually its because the cam is pointed at a certain angle looking at more than 2-3 lights all in a line with each other (even if they are being blocked in between by other stuff, still causes black spot glitch) basically, once the light sources start to overlap infront of a camera, you're screwed.

thanks for the help, there were 2 light sources in the area (not too close together) i removed them and put a light in a different position. the pixel flashes are still visible but not as much and i think its now from the bike headlight ill get there soon.

GODDAMMIT nothing i do stops the pixel issue. i give up, im sharing it as it is. if anyone plays it and has any ideas id be more than grateful

Are the lights too close to the drive line ? This can cause problems too
