Black Sky Bug (PLEASE SOMEONE ?)
Hello Guys, does anybody else has problems with Black Skys ?
The Sky is always Black for me but not for other Server Member, is there an option to fix this ?

I verified gamecache, I updated my graphic card, I changed sky quality to the recommend settings but nothing seems to work.
My specs are:
gtx 970 / i5 6600k / 16 gig ram

right now I am re-installing the game... I just wonder if anyone else has the same bug as me ?

even re-installing the game didn't work. I still have a pitchblack sky. I don't know what to do anymore - everything works fine but the sky. I tried several servers to be sure its not a server problem but everywhere its the same problem. (-nomansky is also off in the launch options and I already verified gamecache and updated my graphic card)

I did everything possible but my sky stays always black. everything else is fine but the sky.
If I put the sky quality to zero I have this bright light bug like a lot of people have. But if I set to 60 or higher the sky is black - always black, like its night.

Try messing with the sky slider in the options. I hear this fixes it. Only thing I know to try, otherwise a fresh install

Seems like you're using launch options, like -sm4 and -d3d10 or something like that, i tried running the game with the typical ARK launch options and my game looked like in your pic.

I deleted all launch options and that fixed it for me, I also heard that the sky quality slider should never be below 70% to prevent sky glitches.

yeah dont use launch options yet except maybe -useallavaiablecores . these haven't been tested by anyone or confirmed working.

Thank you but I did a reinstall and I am not using launch options
Also tried the sky quality slider in various positions. I'll keep looking.

Has anyone found a fix for this issue yet?
I removed all launch commands and it fixed the problem.
