Screen flickering like crazy

Post by Hospis262 »

Hi, I just bought installed FoG 1.2.5,and patched it to 1.2.6.

When I launch FoG the screen is flickering like crazy and is unplayable.

Tried rebooting after install, still same. I'm on a Windows 7 pc. Any ideas please?

I know that some older ATI(?) drivers caused horrible issues under OpenGL, which caused the flickering. First thing I would try is updating the the latest drivers from your video card.

Cheers

If it's an ATI graphic card, the flickering was fixed in the 10.3 driver released a few months ago.

In case you can't/don't want to update, try this: http://slitherine.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... 025#132025
