Thanks for letting us know Dutch - I’ll pass this on to the team.
NVIDIA Smooth Motion is a driver-based AI model that delivers smoother gameplay by inferring an additional frame between two rendered frames, for titles without DLSS Frame Generation support.
Same here. 4080. Screen flashes and flickers when it’s on. Disabling it solves the issue.
Please don’t waste the Devs time on this.
Smooth Motion is designed to be used in games that don’t support DLSS. There’s no good reason to enable Smooth Motion in DT.
tried smooth motion with my 4090. same result: the image flickers, i had to disable it.
i read the rest of the comments now. yes, i’m using dlss.
I’ve tried Smooth Motion in various games, but it still seems to be in an experimental stage.
Its behavior and stability can vary significantly depending on the game’s API (Vulkan or DirectX). Additionally, using Adaptive Sync, Frame Generation, or Reshade can sometimes cause screen flickering.
In particular, the combination of Vulkan and Reshade appears to be problematic, causing flickering in many games.
ok. i’m using reshade for a sharper, more vivid image.
Yep, 4090 as well & with Smooth Motion off, it’s just fine without the crazy strobe light flickering show. Smooth Motion has worked decent in other games without the DLSS option. It’s just a handful of games like Darktide where it’s sht. That’s a great point… Smooth Motion isn’t even needed in Darktide anyway.
Smooth Motion works very well in Hell Divers 2, where there is no DLSS support, there is no point in enabling it for Darktide
