Black flickering

O J · Jul 26, 2015

Cities: Skylines used to work fine for me. I've had a rest from playing for a couple of months until recently. I spotted the update to 1.1.1 including the cargo train station truck fix and was tempted to start playing again a couple of weeks ago.

Unfortunately I'm seeing an awful lot of black flickering - see attached video. It always seems to be square (tile?) based, and not quite like anything else I've seen reported.

I've updated GFX drivers to the latest. I've tried forcing DX9/OpenGL modes, Win7 compatibility and adjusting all the sliders in the internal graphics settings. Nothing has helped fix this. I've seen other similarly-titled threads, but nobody seems to have a problem that looks very similar.

GFX card is Gigabyte R9 285

Any clues for how to fix?

Cheers,

O J

That looks very much like a video card or driver problem. Does it get worse as time goes on? Try checking your GPU temperatures as game start, then after say 30 minutes.

You tried each of these switches?
-force-d3d9
-force-glcore30

You might also consider going back to the December 2014 AMD driver, as a test.

O J · Jul 28, 2015

Hi,

I've just tried again with the older drivers from 2014 after removing all the present drivers, and then again with the latest drivers, with both d3d9 and glcore30 switches, and as normal with no switches. Behaviour is consistent throughout.

It is present as soon as the game starts (not in menus), GPU temperature stabilises at ~52°C fairly quickly, which is satisfactory. I've left it running for about an hour, and the problem is still the same.

Looking at my savegames, I last played properly around 23 May. Is there any way to roll back to a previous version of Cities:Skylines in order to show whether the problem was introduced with 1.1.1?

Cheers,

Oliver

Erm, what? Minus 52c? Are you in Siberia or somewhere?
Seriously, that's a bogus reading. Whatever app you are using, try something else.

O J said:

There is not, I'm sorry to say. Are you saying this happened as soon as 1.1.1c came down, or some previous patch like 1.1.1b ?

O J · Jul 29, 2015

NO! Thats a tilde ~ not a minus, temperature stabilises at approximately (+) 52°C.

I didn't play after around 23 May until mid July, but I recall having tunnels briefly so presumable updated to 1.1.0 around May 19 and didn't see any problem then. I don't know all of your patch release dates, but my Steam is set to automatically update, and would have done so when I started trying to play again a couple of weeks ago.

Here's some more video:

http://www.skylineswiki.com/Cities:_Skylines_Wiki will show you those.

What is the V-sync setting set to? If it's not "don't sync" try that

O J · Jul 31, 2015

Sync was set to "Every V Blank". I've changed it to "Don't sync" as you suggest. Also new AMD video drivers v15.7 obtained yesterday.

I've tried 9 combinations of the Dec 2014/15.2/15.7 driver and dx9/opengl/no switches with "Don't Sync", all with the same flickering persisting.

BenVC · Aug 2, 2015

I have exactly the same issue as O J.

Just bought the game today, so it is a fresh install.

any ideas would be great!

AndrewT · Aug 2, 2015

We've had our problems with this video card, but mostly with game crashing, and they've been fixed with the d3d9 switch. Yours seems to be a unique case, I'm sorry to say. Could even be a hardware problem with it ...

May as well try the other V-sync setting 'every second v blank'.

O J · Aug 4, 2015

BenVC do you have a Radeon R9 285 as well?

AndrewT, I've tried the "every second v blank" as well, also no improvement.

I actually rebuilt my system disk over the weekend, alas without any improvement in this situation. I discovered my backup of the C:S install files from March. I'd like to try that version again, but it seems impossible to get Steam to allow the game to play without updating. I'm adamant that the problem has appeared as of 1.1.1b updates, it would be good to verify this by going back to an older version. I understand Cities:Skylines uses Unity3D, were there any unity updates included in 1.1.1b? Are there any other games that would be worth trying to test if the problem is with Unity or CS?

Put Steam in offline mode.

O J · Aug 5, 2015

Just tried that... offline mode doesn't allow games to be restored from backup.

Back in online mode - restoring the game and it says "Any updates have begun downloading in the background".

If I try to interrupt this and switch to offline mode before it has updates then I get "This game is not ready to be played in Offline mode".

I don't think this is going to get us anywhere useful

AndrewT · Aug 5, 2015

O J said:

Sorry, do you mean save games won't load? If they are locally saved, they certainly should.

O J · Aug 5, 2015

No, I mean the game's program files.

AndrewT · Aug 6, 2015

Sorry, you've lost me entirely.

O J · Aug 6, 2015

In Steam, there is an option to backup/restore games. This is referring to the program and resources that are downloaded and installed, and not [necessarily] any saved games. That is what I was referring to above in #10 & #12.

I was trying to find a way to use my backup files to revert to 1.1.0 to show that there is a bug introduced as of 1.1.1b/c.

AndrewT · Aug 7, 2015

Ah, I see, I've never used that facility - never saw the point of it.

We are not seeing this as a general problem, except for the two people in this thread. I wonder if BenVC has the same video card as you do?

I'm really not sure where to go with this, to be honest. If it was just one of you, it'd be likely a local problem like hardware. Everyone with a card, that'd be a bug in the game or the video driver. Just just two ... ?

I don't suppose different resolutions help?

O J · Aug 15, 2015

I used it when I had limited broadband, now on unlimited so I'm less likely to use it going forward.

I've tried different resolutions, and windowed mode vs full screen, but no improvements. Really frustrating not being able to roll-back to the older version to at least prove whether or not that would still work ok. I guess I'll have to wait for the next update and hope that fixes it.
