Screen Flickering and Focus Issue in Don't Starve Together

Hello everyone,

 

 

 

 

I am experiencing the following issue while playing Don't Starve Together:

Whenever I enter the game and click the left mouse button, the screen flickers for a fraction of a second. During this moment, the game appears to lose focus as an active application, and then immediately regains focus, causing a noticeable flickering effect.

I have already tried several troubleshooting steps, including:

  • Enabling and disabling VSync
  • Switching between fullscreen and windowed/borderless modes
  • Toggling fullscreen optimization compatibility settings
  • Adjusting display-related settings in the Windows Registry

Unfortunately, none of these solutions have resolved the issue.

My system specifications are:

  • GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT
  • CPU: Ryzen 7 7700
  • RAM: 32 GB
  • OS: Windows 11
  • Monitors: Two AOC displays (one at 180Hz and one at 100Hz)

I have also tested running the game with only the 100Hz monitor connected, but the issue still persists.

This problem only occurs in Don't Starve Together and does not happen in any other games.

Steps to Reproduce

I just entered the game and this issue hapenned to me. Look that don't play DST a very long time and i've downloaded the game today to play.

Hi! I just made an account here specifically to answer this because it was driving me crazy LOL

 

So it seems the game has issues with windows 11 for some reason (I have a windows 10 computer that it runs fine there). What I ended up doing was changing the settings for the executable of DontStarveTogether to be windows 8 compatible. After that, the game was running smooth again. 

I havn't run into issues so far so hopefully that helps you too!
