Screen goes black when loading somthing
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

When attempting to load something, either a mission or a new menu (happened when I clicked on editor from main menu) the screen will go black, this can be very easily fixed by alt+tabing out of the game then back in.

Can you try it please in fullscreen window? Thank you.

I gave it a quick try for about 10 minutes, not saying its fixed, but I did notice my steam advanced launch options:
(I'm not sure if you already have them)

"-maxmem=8192" "-maxvram=4042" "-cpucount=4" "-exthreads=7" -nosplash -skipintro

Judging on the the type of problem and it seeming to be only me, this is probably the reason. These options do however greatly increase my fps, so I would prefer to keep them in place...
