Flickering Pixelation Issue

Adding a few screenshots so you guys can see. The issue is always at the top portion of the screen whenever I load into a game. It's not a big issue since the game is still playable, but it does get quite annoying after a time.

For the record, I've toggled every video setting individually on and off, lowest and highest, then restarted. My graphics drivers are also completely up to date.

Here is my build...
Windows 10 Home
i7-6770HQ 2.6 GHz
Intel Iris Pro 580 Graphics
16 GB DDR4 2666
etc.

    What happens with you have your bios flip to stop using your integrated gfx card and use your 1080gtx ti?

    This computer is a Skull Canyon NUC. The Iris Pro 580 is the only GPU in it.

    Issue fixed. Toggled everything again and mixed with a variety of lower resolutions.

    The issue appears to be when any of these three settings are checked:

    "Enable Ambient Occlusion"
    "Enable High Contrast"
    "Enable Vibrance"

    Hope this helps anyone else encountering it.

    Hi,

    we're tracking this internally now (#33387), thanks for the report.

    @Zal so you disabled those three effects, do you have Depth of Field enabled?

    I'm curious whether it requires at least two out of four, or if one is enough. I'd guess it needs two, but would be nice to confirm, if you get a chance. Thanks!

    Depth of field is enabled and works just fine compared to the others mentioned.

    Thanks. The issue will almost certainly happen if any two (or more) of the four are selected. So, if you disable Depth of Field, but enable e.g. Ambient Occlusion, it will still look normal. But both together cause flickering.

    @Zal Can you please try updating to build 8166, and setting glFinishBeforeFBO=1 under [Display Options] in nwn.ini? Refer the patch notes here: http://blog.beamdog.com/2018/03/neverwinter-nights-enhanced-edition_23.html for more info.

    Updated to build 8166 and set glFinishBeforeFBO=1. I made sure to test with the nwn.ini "Read only" box both checked and unchecked. Still the same pixel issue with any enabled variation of the 3 video settings mentioned in my previous post.
