Yes the trigger is enable by render.lighttilecspathenable at 1 value which is basic setting of game. After setting value in config file or in game to 0 the problem of flashing lights doesnt happen because all lights are off anyway.

JeanetteC_Intel — Tue, 21 Oct 2025 00:38:42 GMT

Hello Wincek,

Thanks for confirming the workaround with render.lighttilecspathenable. While setting it to 0 does eliminate the flashing by disabling lights, I still need to know which game mode you're experiencing this issue in originally (with the setting at 1). This will help determine if it's mode-specific or affects all gameplay areas.

I'm looking forward to your reply.
