Summary
I’m using UE version 5.3.2 and I’m seeing a problem with flickering when shading small objects such as grass and also object junctions where Ambient Occlusion usually works
In the video I have demonstrated how this flicker is severe in the “Photo Studio” template as well as in my own project on grass and other objects. This flicker is amplified at a certain angle and at a certain distance.
It is not only in this scene, this scene demonstrates this flaw clearly, I also observe this effect in static grid view.
But this flaw disappears when I activate global illumination mode to Lumen or disable the Distance Field Ambient Occlusion display (Show > Lighting Features > Distance Field Ambient Occlusion)
I looked into this further and noticed that if I turn off Generate Mesh Distance Fields in the project settings, the problem goes away, but I also lose all Ambient Occlusion. Which is not a solution to the problem, because in UE4 I didn’t have a problem with this setting
I ran Unreal Engine 4 and created a new scene there, I didn’t have this problem there. I also downloaded Unreal Engine 5.2.1 and created a new “Photo Studio” scene there. In this version of the engine, the problem was less noticeable compared to UE 5.3.2 (shown in the video)
And it is really annoying when working in Unreal Engine 5, if you have any ideas to solve this problem I will be insanely grateful, as I faced it from the first launch of UE 5.
I am using a Palit GeForce GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Dual GDDR6X graphics card
I have used different dravers for the video card, updated them and for a long time checked if the problem disappeared, but it did not disappear
