Graphical glitch in Crysis 2

[ambam]

I have the full Crysis 2 game (not the demo,) and there is a very severe graphical glitch where bright lights like the sun constantly flicker. Maps where there is a lot of light are practically unplayable. Everything is rapidly flickering, it is extremely annoying and I don't know what to do. I want to play Crysis 2 multiplayer but it is extremely difficult to do so because of this horrible problem.

Could this have something to do with my graphics cards? I have Two HD 5870's in CF (I'm not sure what drivers I'm using.) It gets MUCH worse when I turn vsync off.

What do you think could be causing this problem? I want to fix this so I can actually ENJOY this game I've been anxiously waiting more than a year for. If I do fix this issue, I'll give the game another play-through so I can actually enjoy it this time.

I'd just wait til 11.3 drivers come out. They should be out within the next 3-4 days.

I kind of noticed something like that with my 5830 but I fixed it somehow i'm not sure if it was by updating chipset drivers or video card drivers, i'm guessing video card drivers.

Good luck, I am enjoying the game a lot. It's worth fixing 😀

As long as you have the 11.2 drivers (which you should be using) you can just install the Application Profiles. At worst nothing will happen.

You can just keep reinstalling the CAPs, or you can uninstall them through the windows 'uninstall a program'.

Uninstall the Catalyst Control Center from your CPU and problem is solved.

i just installed Homefront and it was crashing every few minutes. installed the CCC 11.4 Preview and that fixed the crash problem. probably will fix your xfire problem as well.
