I wanted to ask if anyone has found a graphics setting that improves indoor lighting.
I’ve noticed that rooms without any direct light source look unnaturally bright, almost as if they’re glowing on their own. I already changed my graphics settings from High to Ultra, but it didn’t make any difference.
I also have the impression that Ultra now looks more like what High used to look like, only with worse overall image quality.
Has anyone else noticed this, or found a setting that improves it?
I remember people saying lighting spilling through walls and even floors in some case.
Try to remove all lights everywhere and use other style of lights until you find one that does not spill through.
The issue has gotten much worse with the recent changes. Originally, it was about the light leaking through the walls and the rooms self-illuminating. Nothing was done about that bug; instead, they changed the lighting system, making the self-illumination even worse.
Now, on top of the worse self-illumination, this extreme orange is added to it. I can’t even stay in Bliss Bay anymore and already had to move over to Cahaya. I am currently trying to furnish an old mansion with my own custom textures, but I cannot judge them properly at all because the lighting ruins everything. For example, a lighter brown leather glows completely orange indoors.
That is exactly why I opened this thread in the first place, to ask if any player knows a setting to improve this or at least mitigate it a little bit.
I noticed that during the daytime, even when I remove all lamps inside of my home and without any windows, my house is lit up by the sun as if I don’t have a roof. Everything inside is literally lit up from above and is just as bright without lamps. How can I fix this? Any existing settings or reshaders?
For me the problem goes both ways - the lights are too bright but when they are not on - everything looks super dark. The outside even during the day when looked through a window looks like a middle of a night. There is almost no sunlight coming through the windows, so those bright lights have to stay on even during the day.
And lighting during night is also incredibly dark.
I had no issues regarding lighting before this update.
For the first time I’m super disappointed with what they have done and if it won’t be fixed (along with multiple other issues) the game will remain unplayable for me.
