Extremely bright lighting inside caves/buildings

@silentspeedz

What character were you playing at the time?

Can you post your Dxdiag report so we can take a look?

I've attached the DxDiag.txt.

Here are some screen shots:

Notice how something feels a bit strange and off. The walls are black and shiny (?). Also notice all the light reflections as if it's reflecting the sun.

OUTSIDE:

For the most part, outside looks okay.

Some more information:

1. All settings are low.

2. I have tried Repair Game many times.

3. I have searched for similar problems on the internet and there seems to be a common problem of AMD cards getting some black textures.

See this reddit post on it : 

https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWarsBattlefront/comments/3t8pu2/amd_graphic_issue_on_ice_caves/

They found a temporary fix by setting shader to medium or low. Mine is already on low so this problem is not the same.

4. I have yet tried to reinstall the game or downgrade my drivers to an older version as of yet. I will try it soon and report the results.

I have the r9 280 3 gig sapphire

I've seen a lot of posts about black textures in ice caves, which I also have and fixed with Med lighting, but few about the brightness that seems to plague a lot of the levels but you're right they are less noticeable in outside areas but still there.

I have the same exact issue right after I updated my drivers to Crimson and I am hoping that we can find a fix or at least get told that they are aware of it and plan to patch it; either EA or AMD. I would hate to revert to an older driver and what not but if that is what it takes.... sometimes it almost feels blinding and can actually make it hard to see the storm troopers in the snow levels. I had to search a bit to find my exact same problem but good to see at least that I'm not the only one with this exact problem and I am letting you know I'm right here with ya lol.

Thought I would note I have done a full uninstall of drivers, deleted profile settings in my documents, and just now installed directx software just incase but nothing has worked still.

@silentspeedz

You may have an R7 260x video card, can you confirm please?

If so, that video card is somewhat below the requirements and a full clean reinstall of the video drivers is suggested.

Can you post your Dxdiag so we can look into your case please?
