Lighting in distance bugged

Game mode: [Enter game mode here: Online private
Type of issue: [Enter one of the following: Bug | Performance | Misc
Server type: [Enter one of the following: PvE
Region: North America


In the distant the lighting is extremely bright on the cliffs at night compared to near and surrounding landscape, like a giant spot light is shining on it.


Please provide a step-by-step process of how the bug can be reproduced. The more details you provide us with the easier it will be for us to find and fix the bug:

  1. Day or night, this happens. No shadows / bright like light bulb,
  2. Look into distance that has a cliff in the desert
  3. Its lit up like a spot light is on it
  4. If you get close enough it will go back to normal

Hey there,

Thanks for the feedback. Are mods enabled in that server?

Iam not sure if its lighting from light source Wich have too high value, There is also contrast cus sandstorm coming/ending, for me it looks like in distance is used ambient light Wich u have in engine, i have this issue ie in sinkhole, coming from aréna entrance near to me is dark, but more far away is that ambient light,/even while in that cave/ Wich cause similar contrast, ill post screenshot when i get on pc, probably in options some filters are set at lower distance cus performance

Yes this is a modded server. not everyone on the server has this issue, so far only a handful of us, and its not everywhere on the map that this happens

Update
I found what was causing it, it was a modded placable.

It looks like this all the time, sand storm just happend to be passing when i took screen-shot
I could try taking some lights down around and see if its a torch doing it, but wasnt like that untill recently
Also its only like this in this area, i can go else where and its just fine.

Thanks for letting us know. You can keep in touch with the mod author and hopefully they’ll find a way around that issue :slight_smile:
