Hi,
On some Monitors the Fog of war in PS:T is flickering very annoying. There are some solution to this. One is to play the game in window mode. The other one is to play on a lowered resolution.
I know that it's not the fault of you GhostDog that this texture is flickering. But since Ghostdog is providing UI Textures i think he is the most experienced modder who can help me to solve this problem in another way. Thats why im asking this question in this forum. I hope you can help, since both ways to solve this problem have some downsides. The one(lowres) displays the fog of war in a very ugly way. The other one is.... well... not full screen!
The exact reason why it flickers is explained here:

looks like the flickering occurs only at native resolution; i'd suggest it has more to do with lcd properties (http://www.lagom.nl/...t/inversion.php ) and regular pixel pattern used as a shadow to represent fog of war than with anything else, check this out:

make your browser window smaller to be able to horizontal scroll this picture, I e.g. see the bottom bar (which is overlayed by checkerboard-like inversion patter) flickering during scrolling

fog of war on the left, try scrolling again, left edge (where fog of war is) flickering
And yes, this is the reason. Since there are many users with this problem, i think it would be a idea to think about replacing the fog of war texture with another one. For example with not one space between every pixel, but two spaces. Or probably it would be a nice idea to remove this fog completly, and let the enemies just pop out of nowhere if you come closer.
Is this somehow possible?
Thanks in Advance,
Kulin
