Considering you need a mod to disable the fog on SP, i don't think you can disable the storm with simple graphics settings (emphasis on think).

It was disabled before for me. But the patch changed my settings. The other ppl saw the snow storm while i dont saw it.

Maybe that was a bug to begin with then ?
I can not find anything related to making the snow storm go away with settings, it would also make little sense if you could (as annoying as having it might be).

If you go to another Biome that will turn off the storm......I mean it is part of the game why turn it off? Dump down graphic settings and restart from desktop to see if it helps honestly. Also if you happen to find it is a graphic setting there should be a config file of sorts that you can save to your desktop so in the future you have a backup. Only issue is you would have is if the update overwrites it then something changed and you would likely need that change.

Perhaps then you should not be playing games like this? Anyhow perhaps my advice will help you solve it. Sorry but seems weird people buy things then want to remove have of the game they buy. Can say at least you are not being trollish about it. Ark has enough of that around.

Yeah i'm not entirely sure what to advice for the headache (i believe SE storm had the same effect on some people, and AB earthquakes caused motion sickness), the storm could be considered a survival aspect. So unless you manage to find a setting by tinkering around to disable it, your likely going to have to wait for a mod that does a bit more agrresivly.

This argument is so retarded. "Oh you don't like 10% visibility for no reason? Cool, then the 99% of the game that isn't retarded is not for you". Stfu.

Just open this up and yours at the same time, it should be easy enough to figure out what is what that way.
