    What steps will reproduce the problem?
    1. Login to WOW. Guaranteed
    2.
    3.

    What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
    I expect the arrow and text indicating the next waypoint to remain steadily on the screen. Instead I see the arrow (or the blue/white checkered placeholder described in another ticket) and the text both flickering. It seems to flicker in sync with my fps.

    What version of the product are you using?
    This issue appeared after updating to today's release as announced by the curse client updater. I did not have it with older releases (e.g. yesterday)

    Do you have an error log of what happened?

    Please provide any additional information below.

    Hi I noticed that once the waypoints.lua is looking for WaypointArrow.m2 in Cartographer3_Waypoints when it's in Cartagrapher3\Waypoints

    once i fixed it. it stopped flickering. hope this helps.

    Thanks for the comment on the bugfix. I can verify that patching my cartographer3_waypoints/waypoints.lua as described in the no-arrow ticket has resolved the flickering. Looks like that can be logged as a fix for both issues.

    after i came out of an instance the way point arrow became a box again. and it started flickering again.

    I have had this problem since installation. Also the icons on the map flicker and move.

    Just a note, though, for me I'm playing on WinXP, macook pro 17" nvidia 8600.
