Straightforward fixes for broken visuals and lighting for several of the Campaign missions, no need to dig into .cfg files.

Federation Day and End of the Line


Hell of a view ain't it?

If you're getting this beautifully bright sight, press Escape > click Options > Video Options > Advanced Video and scroll down to the Screen Space Ambient Occlusion option



Check your current setting;

  • If you're already on HBAO+, scroll down to Specular Map Resolution and lower it from Extra to High
  • If you're on High or Low for Screen Space AO turn it up to HBAO+, then lower Specular Map Resolution from Extra to High

Settle in, the game will now reload and, if you're lucky, you'll only hear "We searched for his body for weeks" just once.

If the issue persists, keep toggling between the Ambient Occlusion options until you find one that works, it's usually a combo of HBAO+ and SMR: Extra that causes the bug to appear.
Clockwork
Well hey look at that, everything is bright and see-through, lovely.

Clockwork's issue is a little more unique, hit escape > click Options > Video Options > Advanced Video and scroll down until you see this option:



Change Specular Map Resolution from Extra to High, the map will now reload and that should fix the issue. If it doesn't, try turning the option down further.
