Hi everyone,
Black blank background screen issue when opening Unity(game engine), with a black line appearing at the top of the screen. It glitches whenever I hover over it or whenever pixels change on the screen. Tried Ctrl + Shift + Win + B, but it only makes the screen go fully black for a minute without fixing the issue.
Anyone else experiencing this blank background problem, or have any suggestions for a fix?
You mean the Unity Editor? Just making sure because the game engine is typically referring to just the build output.
In any case, make sure you have the latest stable graphics driver installed. Prefer the Nvidia “Studio” or AMD “Pro” drivers aimed for “creative work”.
If you work with an integrated GPU (eg Intel HD Graphics) you may generally have graphics glitches on older hardware since they aren’t game-engine-capable. For instance, the CPU/GPU should be at least of Gen9 (CPUs built in 2016 onwards) in my experience.
If you’re on a Mac search for Mac specific graphics issues. Particularly the modern Mx Macs had/have some issues.
I’m having this problem specifically when I have an older / default graphics driver (nvidia default installed , without the nvidia app, and studio drivers) and I have Unity opened.
And when I connect using Anydesk to that computer (remote control). Then a random part of the screen turns black and I can see it through anydesk.
And the flickering happens, just like the original post.
I’m installing the newest Game Ready drivers to see what happens.
Well seems like it doesn’t happen again (for now). So updating drivers and installing the nvidia app fixed it.
