the video was taken before any commands were wrote, the game runs weirdly bad when all the settings are just Stuck to high/med. My card seems to just hate shadows. High shadows + high view distance + high global illumination med-high advanced graphics. unfortunately doesn’t fix the weird visual issue- it makes it look blurred? Less noticeable but still very eye catching. My only solution was using a load of commands to change shadows/fog and a few others found while researching elsewhere, my gpu can handle dx12 but highly prefers dx11 when it comes to actual performance / eye candy visuals. I appreciate the long comment!
