The game is flickering black every once in awhile and it's messing with my eyes. Anyone have any idea what's causing it and how to get rid of it?

I'm going to be a lamer and suggest updating your video drivers.

Post your OS, video card model, video card driver, whether or not you play in true color, your social security number, shoe size, etc. (Only the first three, I was joking about the shoe size one.)

Using Vista and NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT.

I tried updating the driver from the NVIDIA website, but that ducked my computer up and had to go back to the version I was using previously. I read somewhere that since my computer is HP I have to use the update from the HP website pertaining to my computer model, but that update is from 2008 and doesn't help XD

Using Vista

Wait for a Windows user to answer, I got Linux and I don't believe the problem is the game itself.

And why didn't you put your social security number up?

That made me lol. Honestly though, I have no idea. Seems to be the case most of the time
