Graphical Glitch in the Myth Tower (Classic Mode)

There is a really strange graphical glitch going on in the Myth Tower in Ravenwood on my system. The walls keep flickering between the Myth Tower assets and the Life Tower assets inside the tower. This only seems to occur in the Myth Tower and in Classic Mode. None of the other towers, nor does the updated graphics have this issue. In other games and in the 3D art world, we call this z-fighting. Where two planes of geometry are occupying the same coordinates in the game world, causing the planes to flicker because the game doesn't know which one to display. It look rather odd. Would someone take a look to confirm or deny if this is an issue with the game as a whole, or if it's just on my end? Thanks.

This sometimes will occur with exactly overlapping textures. We'll take a look!
