Yes I do get the bug. However, I think it may be dependent on antialiasing/texture filtering settings. At least, that should be investigated.

I'm getting the bug with the following configuration:
EVGA 8800gts OC - 640 MB Ram
XP 32 SP + Vista Ultimate 32
Nvidia Driver Version: 169.28
FYI: I've tried rolling back to the very first driver that has 8000 series support and the bug was still there.

 The flicker is still there. It's just not as prominent.

VI - where are those settings hidden for AA and stuff and can you set them for just AC?
Does anyone who has this problem play any other game and get a similar result or is is just AC?
Better question are you playing form the CD install of TOD or the Web install of TOD?
The Web install did not include the high res textures and I wonder if the problem only exists if the high res textures are available, as the high res textures were abandoned by Turbine.
so much to ponder.

Not in AC, but using the NVidia control panel you can override per-game antialias settings and enable it.

AC is the only game where I have this problem. Also, although it's possible, I don't think settings have any affect on the problem. I tried doing a lot of tweaking with rivatuner and nothing seemed to fix the problem. I also tried all the settings in AC. Maybe there's a magical setting permutation out there, but individual settings do not seem to fix it from what I can tell.
I am running the downloaded version of ToD. I had no idea that the physical cd had higher rez textures than the web download. I had been told on the official forums that there was no advantage to having the store bought version vs. the digital download.

FyrieWindwalker - thats because they no longer support the high res texture replacement they had started...
I wish I had an 8 series so I coudl see this bug first hand and work on it...
so far the best we had was maybe it had to do with memory management on the card...
