I just updated my AMD drivers to Crimson. This causes my mech lab to flicker with frame pacing.
This is bad. However the new driver does improve game play. But the lab is about to give me the urge to grab some glow sticks or convulse. Just so you know only the mech model flashes.
I have a 4790x
3 290x in trifire
32 g ram
win 8.1
ssds galore.

Please start work on this as the new driver will be adopted very soon by all.

This also happens in the voting screen but only on the % circles and also in conquest on the controlled point bar. But the game itself does not have issues.

Found it was the shadows bar. This made the flashing in mech lab but did not solve the flashing in voting.

Sorry the issue was shadow detaial high and tri fire did not play nice in mech lab. However this did not change the flashing on the vote screen or the capture bars.

Just the flashing on the vote screen and the capture bars in-game are doing it for me. The game runs just fine otherwise.

Not surprising since those drivers weren't touched in years.

7950 - similar bug. Need to check shader caching option, I think it might be the problem.

I'm using win 10. In conquest, the capture bars are flashing. You would defenitely notice if you have it or not.
Do you have shader caching enabled?
Did you make a clean install or updated directly via CCC?

Did you remove the uninstall the previous drivers first? 7950 and no issues w/Win10 On the drivers itself, in case it is reading previous settings, have you reset everything to default, then in game run the repair tool?

And frak, moved into Tier 2.. that fraking sucks... grr....and I am leveling tier 4/5 mechs..just fraking sad.

Same issue. Running a 7970 Ghz on Win7.

Another (very subtle but evident) issue i found was blurry text throughout the UI and in-game. Seems like setting both Morphological & OpenGL Triple Buffering within Global Options and the game profile causes it. A little testing indicated that it's the fault of the Global Options page since it can be disabled there yet with the profile enabled and it will work as intended.

Not sure if this is a game fault or the new Radeon Settings/drivers playing up.

Same here, i have a 7950 and the voting screen % circlets and the in game conquest/assault bars flash constantly during the game only since I've updated to the crimson drivers.
