Flickering Hair Issue
So I decided to play Mass Effect with female Shepard and noticed one annoying issue in mission on Eden Prime. Her short hair are flickering! Any ideas how to solve this? Funny thing is that this does...
With that hairstyle issue isn't so noticeable so you might've missed it or you are lucky that you don't have it, this issue in my case happens so far only on Eden Prime. I noticed that in Citadel flickering stops. But when I noticed this issue first time my femshep had shorter hair than your femshep. Her hair was as short as usually male hair are. GPU has latest drivers. I always try to find a solution myself through google and I always do everything I can think of, which might help in cases like this, before I go to forum to ask about how to solve issues I have with some games.
No, I don't use mods.
"Flickering" is a very general term, can you upload a video to YouTube that shows the issue?
Unfortunately I don't have a program with which I could record gameplay. Imagine how parts of short hair are disappearing and reappearing very fast. That kind of a flickering happens on Eden Prime with my femshep's hair.
Well, this kind of error can have any number of reasons.
You can try this:
Make sure Origin is completely closed
Rename the "Config" folder under "Documents\BioWare\Mass Effect" to "Old_Config"
Start Origin > start the game.
The game will create new config files. This will help if a existing file is corrupted.
If that don't helps you can test if different in game or driver graphic settings will make a difference.
