Screen 'rippling' when playing DayZ

Recommended Posts

Recently I have been getting a kind of rippling effect on my monitor while playing, I think due to refresh rate perhaps. My monitor is a 42" LED 120hz. I dont get this rippling effect any other time, just during DayZ and only when moving and usually only on the bottom half of the monitor.


Since the video options dont include refresh rate does anyone have any ideas?

I get something like this as well, usually after running for awhile, everything looks wavy. Like to hear what people have come up with as well.

Come to think of it this started happening when I hooked up my second monitor. Main monitor is hdmi but 2nd monitor is using regular adapter. Vid card is a GTX580

Don't search any further, it's not a technical problem, nor a problem (imo) it's simply an in-game effect to simulate being winded or tired from running a certain distance. The feature was already implemented in Arma 2 (In "real" game, not only in dayz) and also in Arma 3.

 

When this begins to happen just stop running for a certain time, and i'm sure by the time your character don't breathe heavily anymore the waving effect will be gone !

I never had this issue before but it only just started recently. This has nothing to do with an in-game effect.

 

 

Enabling VSync helped a little bit but I'm still getting it.

Your 42" LED isn't "real" 120hz so if you are trying to run it at that you will have problems, also running two different refresh rates is known to cause issues.
