Water flickering since new patch

Go to Remix, Infinite Bazaar in the Vale, and move your mouse to the mailbox… it is flickering AS HELL, even with disabled “Async Ressource Creation" (which resolves water flickering)… I disabled everything in Graphic options… flickering still here… WTF

I’ve had that mailbox flickering in remix since day one.

The other flickering issues though are new and do seem to have some connection to the 3D modelling in game, not just add-ons.

Likely add-on authors can’t fix this as it seems to be a game issue.

I’m using tiny tooltip which has models above tootips and that also makes the water flicker.

Well now tonight, MY MAP is flickering too… (sigh)

Addons don’t touch the graphics. If you’re having issues sending an in game bug report. It capture your hardware data and other info, sending it to those who fix the bugs.

Had hope that the latest patch on 30.07.2024 would fix this issue. It did nothing and the issue still persists so I sent another bug report.

disabling RT reduces the flickering by a lot but does not fully fix it, disabling multi threading by looks of it fully fixes it, issue appears when any 3D model is on screen like portraits or mount window, may be different trigger for anyone.
the dialog window potraits trigger it for me as well.

Same thing here, using SUF and had to lower the water quality. I didn’t try to disable suf yet since I just read here it can be the cause and I’m stil at work. Will update when tried. Also using Gefore 4070 if it can help.

Hey there. SUF makes the issue worse, but it is not the cause of it.

If you want to keep SUF you can simply disable all 3D portraits in the SUF options by switching them to 2D.

That won’t fix the flickering caused by Blizzards own 3D models though, like the ones in the paperdoll, pet journal, mount journal etc.

:expressionless:

I see what you did there.

Small patch today. Didn’t expect much but when logging in my flickering issues seem to be fixed. 3D Portraits in SUF, paperdoll, pet journal don’t cause flickering anymore. Will test around a bit to make sure.

Anyone else had a chance to check?

(Nice cinematic summarizing the events of the last expensions btw.)

Edit: No flickering after flying around for a bit. I did notice worse performance though, slight hitches und lower FPS than before.

This fixed it to me so far. I was farming in Thunder Isle and it was unbearable. Thank you so much!!
