NPCs, Vehicles and Players Flickering/Disappearing on All FiveM Servers

What is the issue you’re having?

Hi,

I’ve been having a very annoying issue on FiveM for quite a while now.

NPCs, vehicles and sometimes other players constantly flicker, disappear and reappear on my screen. It can happen repeatedly while I am playing and it has now reached the point where the game is becoming almost unplayable.

The problem happens on every FiveM server I play on, not just one specific server.

I have included several Medal recordings below because the issue is much easier to understand by watching the videos:

What have you tried already to fix the issue?

I have already tried many different things, including:

Completely uninstalling and reinstalling FiveM

Completely uninstalling and reinstalling GTA V

Completely resetting/reinstalling Windows

Clearing the FiveM cache

Trying different FiveM settings

Trying different GTA V graphics settings

Changing V-Sync settings

Testing with V-Sync enabled and disabled

Changing NVIDIA G-Sync settings

Testing with G-Sync enabled and disabled

Disabling overlays

Changing some NVIDIA Control Panel / NVIDIA App settings

Trying different network settings

Changing DNS settings

Restarting my router / internet connection

Restarting the computer multiple times

I have also tried lowering/changing graphics settings to see if the problem was related to performance or rendering, but the issue is still present.

Even after completely resetting my PC and reinstalling GTA V and FiveM from scratch, the exact same problem continues.

What server did you get this issue on?

Nothing specific that I know of. The issue started happening some time ago and has continued ever since. I cannot identify any particular update, modification or setting that caused it.

Windows version

Windows 11

Additional comments

This issue only seems to happen on FiveM.

I have already spent a lot of time trying different settings and solutions, including a complete Windows reset, but nothing has fixed it.

If anyone has experienced the same problem or knows what could cause entities such as NPCs, vehicles and players to flicker/disappear and reappear, I would really appreciate any help.

I can provide additional recordings, screenshots, logs, DxDiag information or any other files needed for troubleshooting.

Thank you.
