Water flickers/shimmers momentarily

[peppergomez]

Extended STEP install and the game is running great, but the water shimmers/flickers momentarily when it loads in a scene. I notice this mostly when it's distant.

 

How might I fix this?

 

thanks.

I had this happen a couple of times a while back and I think it was related to an ENB. Do you have an ENB installed?

If you mean what I think you mean, then it is a engine rendering issue which cannot really be fixed... would need screenshots to verify though. 

Distant water flickering is there ENB or no ENB... as I have understood it then it is just a consequence of the way water have been implemented in the game.

Hey Aiyen!  I posted a question or problem in the ENB forum. Check it out and get back to me. I's concerning Skylighting v5.0

@peppergomez,  Does the water flash in and out on the surface or is it a distant view problem?

bitd: I have not noticed any threads or posts on the ENB forums... perhaps I am just too tired. Just pm me any questions instead.. easier for me to handle.

USually distant view but in a recent game the water near the eldergleam tree in Whiterun was flashing like crazy for about ten seconds. I haven't encountered that since, however.
