Re: Apex Legends Flickering Pink Lights Glitch

@Mrdotcomunist 

Thanks for checking! 80 degrees might be a bit high, but that should still be within the acceptable temperature range for most video cards. 

What happens if you try starting up your PC in a Clean Boot before you launch Origin? If there's something else running on the PC that could be causing this, a Clean Boot might help to get around it. For more info on how to set one up check out the EA Help website

Let me know how that goes when you have a chance. Thanks again.

    Im sorry, but that doesn't seem to be the problem either. I tried sevral times but the glitch is still there. I think the game localization can cause some issues. It's on a diffrent hard drive than it was before the glitch started ocuring. Im gonna re-install the game on the original hard drive and see if it helps. If you can think of any other problems, please tell me.

    Nope, even after re-installing it in the original hard drive the problem is still there ☹️. Again if you think something else is causing the problem please tell me.

    Thank you for following up!

    I wonder if this could actually be a driver issue of some kind. When you have a chance can you try rolling back to an earlier driver to see if that makes any difference at all? 

    /Kent

  • @EA_Kent 

    Yes, that seems to be it! I un-installed the driver completely and lauchend the game, the glitch wasn't there and i could see. Thank you very mutch for helping me!

    @Olle_Granny 

    That's right, the graphics driver. If you're having the same issue can you try rolling back to an earlier graphics driver to see if that helps?

  • Hello, I followed the same troubleshooting steps as the previous user in this thread but have not yet found a solution to this issue.

    I have the same problem and nothing previously said in this thread has helped me. My GPU temperatures are normal too so I don't think that's the problem.

    My graphic card is a GTX1080 with last drivers (466.27 version).

  • hey can you help me, i have the pink flickering lights and idk what to do

    Hi all,

    I saw a few reports from people running AMD Radeon video cards who said that disabling Radeon Boost in the AMD Radeon Software has helped with this. If you're on an AMD GPU please give that a shot and let me know if it helps. 

    If you're using an NVIDIA card, what happens if you try starting up your PC in a Clean Boot before launching Apex Legends? Do you still see the same artifacting in-game? For more details on how to set up a Clean Boot check out the EA Help website

    Let me know how that goes once you're able to give it a shot. 

    Thank you!

  • Thanks for the response Kent, looks to be an issue with AMD Radeon Boost. Once I disabled this feature the texture flashing stopped. Thanks for the help!

    Hi! 

    So I had the same problem and tried a bunch of things like rolling back to an older version of the driver or disabling the boost feature (because I use AMD).. 

    (Of course I tried those things like repairing, reinstalling etc..)

    Still, there is no solution for me and the texture is still flashing pink.. help would be appreciated so much! 

    Thank you

    Hey @xStrLrdx

    Are you running Apex Legends through Origin, or do you use Steam? 

    /Kent

  • Hi Kent! I actually could solve it for me by checking the "Radeon Boost" specifically for Apex Legends. First I checked the general settings and disabled the boost.. as I said, it didn't fix my problem. After rolling back my driver (didn't work aswell) I accidentally clicked on Apex Legends as a Game in the AMD Radeon Software and saw that the Boost feature was enabled for Apex Legends individually!! Conclusion: Always check the game settings for each game aswell (besides the general settings) 

    I'm sorry for causing troubles, but I'm so happy I can finally play the new season! 

    Kind Regards and much love for the support here <3

    No need for an apology! Thanks for following up here and letting me know. I'm glad to hear you were able to get it figured out. 🙌

  • Problem solved by disabling the Radeon Boost.

    i disabled radeon boost and it literally got rid of all my artifacts and other glitches. i was worried that i would have to upgrade the gpu during this shortage.
