Symptoms
- When you hit someone or if you are being hit, you see some graphical corruption, mainly during and after some kind of particles are shown.
- Sometimes, like during preemptive strike, game freezes and some seemingly unrelated sound effects play before eventually the game speeds-up to catch up.
Cause
Most likely this happens due to 3rd-party video filters.
In my case the culprit is LAVFilters (most recent ones, vanilla) and I will be
explaining how to deal with them. In case you use anything else (which you
shouldn’t), you will have to figure out the solution yourself. I recommend
uninstalling whatever codec craps packs you may have and clean-up whatever
they could leave behind as a first step.
Solution
Add the following to your windows registry:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\LAV\Audio\Blacklist]
"AGE.EXE"=dword:00000001
"Kamidori English.exe"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\LAV\Splitter\Blacklist]
"AGE.EXE"=dword:00000001
"Kamidori English.exe"=dword:00000001
Alternatively, you can disable MPEG-PS, MPEG-TS and MP2 formats in LAV settings.
