Vehicle textures blink in and out of view.

    Ever since the patch that came before the OMFG patch, including the time this was on PTS, Vehicle textures for the main frame (not including armor or attachments) have been blinking. It doesn't always happen and seems to be somewhat connected to where i'm looking because turning causes the textures to blink in when standing still they stay invisible. Seeing as I haven't seen a single other complaint about this sometimes game-breaking glitch, I assume it's probably a problem to due with my computer, specifically my graphics card. My card is a Radeon HD 6490m and i'm barely able to run planetside 2 on it. Seeing as this isn't a widespread problem, i was wondering if you had any suggestions about settings I could change to fix this. Unfortunately I am unable to upgrade my graphics card on my laptop.

    I got a rage /tell accusing me of a noob invisibility hack the other night. Im assuming that guy was having this problem.

    Not quite. Blinking textures even without myself moving and only happening to the bodies of vehicles.
    Things like armor and treads still render. I'd say that this happens to me for between half and a quarter of my play time.

    Push?
    Same for me, on a Radeon HD as well.
    Anyone found a solution?

    Although I haven't played that much, it seems to have gotten better with the new patch. I've noticed that really only the turrets have done this. though maybe I haven't played enough to encounter this again.
