Explanation

Shadow Boxes Flicker Across Screen On Ultrawide On Darker Maps

This is especially prevalent on darker maps, but I notice it seems to be an issue on every map.

As a similar post that has seemed to be abandoned since, noted the same issue a while ago.
This is extremely critical, as it is so disorienting and honestly headache inducing, the game is not playable.
