Screen is flickering in fullscreen mode

[Mercator]

When I run my game in fullscreen mode my screen flickers a little bit.
What could be the reason?
I created my device in this way:

Code: Select all

Device = createDevice(EDT_OPENGL, core::dimension2d<s32>(1024, 768),32, true, false, false, &receiver);

when this happens to me, its a vsync issue, I usually set the last false to true to limit fps to the vsync rate

YMMV.

When you go to fullscreen the monitors refresh rate get's set to 60Hz that causes the flicker. If your video drivers have the option to set the refresh rate by force to a certain value, I would set it to a value of 75Hz or above to the limit that your monitor can handle.
