glitch/scale r_lod_switch_scale [hurts eyes]

Hello, I'm having problems(youtubers/streamers too) with textures/objects. When moving away from them or approaching them, the textures are replaced. When playing against other players, this is very distracting. I have 20% of the picture on the monitor are constantly replaced by other textures. It hurts my eyes to look at this!
I think it is because Respawn took away the ability to change this config - r_lod_switch_scale. Please do something. Chech Screenshots...

  • @FFFSXFFFI think it's fairly common to only render textures within a certain distance, or at least lower the texture quality when the distance it great. I agree that this is annoying at times.
    There have been many occasions when I thought I glanced an enemy moving in the distance, only to realize that it was just a texture changing due to me moving back and forth.
    However, I think it's a vital part of the game. Without this it would be alot more demanding. Giving the players ability to configure the render distance is nice, but kind of unfair.
    If you have a beast of a PC you'll really have an advantage.

    Bad or good PC - It doesn't matter, because players are all seen at the same distance, regardless of this setting.
    I also want to say, it's fair that my eyes start to hurt after an hour of playing :D :D ? I wear corrective glasses. This rendering issue causes eyes fatigue and difficulty focusing while playing.
    All have to do is give the ability to adjust r_lod_switch_scale min 0.6 to max 1.0, i think.
