QFG2VGA Screen Flicker Bug

#1 Post by Leshy01 » Fri Apr 10, 2009 7:51 am

I've search the board here and I've tried various solutions but I apparently have a very specific bug.

First of all, my video card apparently doesn't support the 320x200 screen resolution. But oh well. The problem is that I can only play the game in windowed mode. If any screen resolution works for full screen, the screen flickers. There are random lines of white and black that appear constantly and are very distracting.

I've disabled ffdshow for the game and I've tried all variations of filters, resolutions and settings. The only thing that works is windowed mode and that's frustrating. Please help.

EDIT: I posted a screenshot of what happens. This occurs throughout the entire game.

Does the flickering occur all throughout the game or just during the AGDI logo movie at the beginning?

Other than suggesting that you try upgrading your video card drivers to the latest version and also upgrading to the latest version of DirectX, I'm not sure there's anything that can be done about this. But definitely try those two things and see if they work for you.
