So recently I’ve noticed some weird behavior with CIU Background 2 “Cold & Dark”. I noticed that the background sometimes randomly flashes when it’s scrolling. The whole background just starts flashing(or glowing) while playing at random waves. It’s not that big but flashing randomly is indeed creepy. However it’s not affected by zoomed waves or environmental filters. The strange thing is that this happens only with that background and other backgrounds are fine. I tried recording multiple videos with multiple screen recorders of it but everything seemed fine in the video because apparently this “flashing” only happens in Borderless or Fullscreen mode but not at Window(which makes game lags) so screen recorders can’t capture it. I also changed screen resolution, it didn’t happen but game had bad quality + it lagged.
So if anyone has experienced smth like this before or know how to solve it please say so.
Edit: I’ve noticed that this only happens with my recommended resolution 1920x1080 and if there’s let’s say 10 wave stage it happens at wave 1 but weak and at wave 5 & 7 strong. Also when zooming out or in this lighting also takes effect but not by flashing but by zooming. And while spacecraft switch direction the flashing also happens. I don’t know if my PC, my graphic card(AMD Radeon RX 580 2048SP) or my monitor(HP ZR22w) could be the cause.
Edit 2: If I also not set my Quality to highest in Borderless mode the flashing doesn’t happen.
Edit 3: Apparently disabling Bilinear Filter also solver the problem.
Long story short: this happens when the game is in best quality performance.
