Have you tried verifying your game files on steam?
Have you tried disabling your antivirus?
Have you tried updating D3D (Direct 3D I can only assume)? https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=17431

Yea… The “what have you tried” section could be useful here…

Have you tried disabling shadow play?

4

Is there away that you can fix this without disabling shadowplay

5

No, there isn’t a way.

6

same thing happens when i stream using shadowplay in full screen. But if i use windowed borderless then ill get these annoying black flashes in my streams every time someone talks in the chat or if the server lags. I give up at this point tbh…

7

Yea, I also record with shadowplay and wish their was a fix so I can use it.

8

Just use something else? Plays.tv, OBS, between others. A recording software doesn’t need to have an overlay to be good.

not to mention shadowplay’s lack of audio channel splitting is kind of a deal breaker

Hi,
I installed FiveM today but unfortunately I’m experiencing the same problem.
I tried updating drivers nvidia and DirectX and I have not installed the GeForce Experience, so I can’t disable shadowplay (because its not installed).
I have a legit copy of the game and the vanilla version works as intended.

Try not using RivaTuner, Afterburner or ANYTHING that can overlay your screen. Probably even Overwolf.

It worked. I played for about 5 minutes, then crashed for a “potato ack” error :smiley:
Thanks
