When I find a river in the beginning of the game, I noticed that it constantly flashes, as if reappearing and disappearing really quickly. Any way to fix this?

I have Windows 7.

I'm using the textures patch by the way.

It's caused by the texture patch. I have tried to look a fix for it but never found any solutions I'm afraid.

It worked for me but it might also hurt your FPS, especially in populated areas like the new camp.
