Hi,

the character images flicker. It seems that the image is composed of the charackter, the foreground and the outside image, and the background image. The background image is removed, reloaded and rescaled every few seconds resulting in a flickering of the composed image.

See attached Video.

Reproduced with 1.0.4.1

I think it's related to old video drivers for amd r9 200 series. Try to update.

I have had updated drivers, but switched to "Amernime Zone Radeon Insight" after reports that the modded drivers would fix some of the CTD I encounter. I will try to revert to the original drivers and report back

Tested with original AMD driver "Adrenalin 21.5.1 Optional, Release Date 2021-05-06"
still flickering in DW2 1.0.4.3
