Re: Starwars Battlefront Glare bug

Lots and lots of google searching later I located the fix that worked for me (again).  The problem:  Some reflective surfaces (some areas of snow, shiny metallic or icy planes)  would fill or partially fill the screen with blinding white when I looked at them from certain angles - particularly bad on Hoth and Tatooine in single player battles (haven't played multiplayer yet so can't comment on that aspect).

Anyway, the fix that worked for me is:

If you’re experiencing crashes of any kind on the PC version (especially if you’re running an older graphics card), you could try adding some launch options to the game:

  • Right-click on the game in Origin.
  • Choose Game Properties.
  • Type “-novid -noborder -windowed” in the box (without the quotation marks).
  • Check “Disable Origin in Game for this game”

I think it's specifically dot point 3 as disabling Origin in game prior to adding the suggested launch options made no difference.  The added launch options haven't made any other changes to appearance or game play that I can see, but they've solved the Battlefront Glare issue that at least 2 of us are having.

Good luck!
