I'm encountering a strange issue where GZDoom's graphics 'freeze' - the game continues as normal, but the display is stuck on one particular frame.
As far as I can tell it's not crashing the renderer - console output via the 'logfile' function shows nothing unusual whatsoever, and the mouse cursor does show up and render correctly.
I currently cannot seem to roll back drivers, unfortunately (the option is unavailable), so that does not appear to be a solution I can enact.
EDIT: I have found a previous driver version, installed it, and I am in the process of testing if this resolves the issue - I'll make a full post if it resolves the problem, with some instructions on what to look for version-wise.
Graphical 'freeze' with Intel HD Graphics?

If you want help you're going to have to provide lots of info. Like what is your hardware, what is your operating system, what version of GZDoom/LZDoom/whatever you're using, what mods you're loading, how you're loading it, what you've already tried for fixing the problem, and anything else that is even remotely relevant to the problem.
We can't magically figure out what it is if you're going to be vague, and if we feel like you're just wasting our time with guessing games we will act like that's what you're really doing and won't help you.

This is a known problem, and unfortunately I don't think there's any fix. The only thing you can do is try your system manufacturer's drivers.

Okay, I've been playing a lot of Doom with the older driver, and it appears the rollback worked.
For reference, the driver version for my Intel Core i5 is 24.20.100.6286, released August 23rd 2018. The exact version/release date may vary depending on your processor.
Hopefully this helps anyone else who's having this issue.
