Ok, found some mob spaners and pointing/destroying them did not trigger the flickering. As far as I understand the flickering starts with checking items in NEI.

I'v tried without NEI, bur since I have no mob spawner to point at (so far) its hard to say if it a MC or a NEI problem. I'v tried with NEI but not putting mouse over a mob spawer => no flickering but after a few hours the game gets more and more laggy until I have to restart it I'v will try to find a mob spawner in my current world and see what happens.

Oops Tyken123 have also reported this flickering. I'v added a video to his thread

This is the same problem that I reported and that I couldn't recreate. But today I did. Video link below. Since the flickering is very fast like 30 Hz or something its hard to capture on video but you can see it in the last few seconds. The flickering starts after I open NEI and scroll through the items. My guess is that its when I mouse over on a spawner that triggers the flickering. I can see in the background that world is lit up same way it is while destroying it with a pickax. And after that glass and trees (and other thin items from add-on) flicker at a distans. The video is from a run with only NEI installed, no optifine and no texture pack and default settings in MC. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/58751759/Video_2015-06-26_071647.wmv

I have failed to re-create the problem so far. Close/remove this topic for now.

Yes I will do that. I will also slowly add the other add-ons I have one by one to see when the flickering starts and report back. --- edit 1 --- Both Backpacks and Random Things are missing some model information that gives error messages in the Forge log. Both have been informed. The hunt goes on

ok, so now I have captured one of the problems. Waila is one of the problems (still in Beta I know) - I will report this to Waila also. logs: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/58751759/Flicker%20with%20Waila%20-%20logs.rar video: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/58751759/Flicker%20with%20waila.wmv there are some other "stuff" in the logs that might be of interest - one is a crash trying to access a mojang thingy. I'v repeated the test with only waila installed - same result

ah, ok, my bad So the flickering is with MC 1.8 + Forge for 1.8 - hm...

ok, I will postpone my comments until someone asks for help testing Forge for 1.8.7 (regardless of the fact that Forge for 1.8 works very nicely on 1.8.7 already).

Yes, I know forge is not ready for 1.8.7. Still the alfa/beta/whatever works very nicely so far. Some of the addons is also alfa/beta so I know what to expect. Yes, I will try to run 1.8.7 with forge 1480 but without any other add-ons to see if the problem occurs and if so grab some logs and videos.

MC 1.8, Forge 1453 and 1479, Win 7 I get a lot of flickering in the texture, sometimes from start but mostly after playing a while. - the item name in the small Waila HUD window sometimes flicker when I point at stuff. - the whole world flickers in the Nether if I have Waila installed - Distent items, e.g. trees, in the normal world start to flicker after playing a while. I'v also seen textures, e.g. glass panes flicker when camera is not looking on it straight on. This also happens when Waila is not installed. - Elians material detector has some text around its radar that flickers all the time. Types of flicker: - Swithing fast between correct color and some base color, often white. Stroboscope thingy - Texture on/off sort of thing - Looks like distant itemd are moving right and left a pixel or two very fast, (makes me sort sea sick) I'v tried to add/remove add-ons and play around with settings - nothing helped so far except the flickering in the neather. I cannot see anything in the logs.
