Flickering Problem
Hello All! I looked around on the forums and found some other users with this same problem, and the problem seemed to be fixed for them, but I tried those things and it didn't work.

When I start penumbra or amnesia, the game flickers. Nothing else seems wrong, it just flickers.

CPU:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
Intel Core2 CPU T7200 @ 2.00GHz (intel centrino duo)
3072MB RAM
ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 - 1405MB

Any idea why this is happening? I've tried turning on/off Vsync and other settings nothing seems to work...help!!!
thanks!

RE: Flickering Problem
Make sure both games are fully updated to the latest version. Amnesia update v1.2 fixes issues with ATI X-Series cards

RE: Flickering Problem
I got the game off of steam so I'd assume that it would be completely updated...I'll check really quick and see if it fixes it.
Yeah It seems that the games are up to date...any other possible idea?

Attach us here the file HPL.log found under Documents\Amnesia\Main folder

RE: Flickering Problem
From the log I can see that Amnesia is not updated to v1.2 which is important to run the game with such a graphics card. Do the same for Penumbra. Both games fixes issues with such cards at their latest updates.

RE: Flickering Problem
I don't have steam so I cannot really help you with that. Try to manually update the game from its options or something. Moderator Tanshaydar should be able to help you...
