Question - MQ2 and UI flashing problem (1 Viewer)

[PurpleKitty]

When running MQ2 and EQ in windowed mode and the EQ window does not have focus the UI components that have their transparency altered from their default pulse visually. My unskilled opinion is that they appear to be very quickly cycling between their transparent and non transparent form.

Any idea why or more importantly, is there any way I can stop this beside forcing my transparency preferences in the UI templates? Its driving me nuts on my non primary windows.

Are you running mq2fps? I have this issue when I set the background fps really low.

Thank you thank you thank you. Didn't realize that loaded by default. Unloaded it and the problem is gone.

I didn't find it was needed for when I run 3-5 on one machine (rather beefy one) but once you start going above that it really makes a difference limiting the background fps.

The flashing drives me crazy when I use it, but sometimes it's not a bad trade off to squeeze in that extra instance of eq.
