Problems with the shaders (?)

Hi there,

After the Season 3 update, me and my friend have noticed a bug with the graphics (shaders maybe?) and we figured out a workaround to fixing it. First we noticed some textures were not loading in the proper quality, for example the ground textures on some parts of the Rolling Waves park would look very low quality (see the "Before" picture linked). Then I noticed the lighting would look weird in dark shadowy areas, like if the shadows were turned off or something.

Well... then I decided to change my graphics settings by selecting one of the Global Graphics Quality presets and customizing it to my liking. And when I continued playing, all of the low quality textures were fixed, the weird lighting was fixed, all the new "grime -textures" appeared on surfaces and more graffiti appeared too. I went back to look what graphic setting was it that changed the whole look of the game... It wasn't any of the settings, it was just a bug. And workaround to that is to just "refresh" the graphics by switching to one of the Global Graphics Quality presets so the game has to load in the new graphics settings again and then you can go back to your custom settings again.

So, The fastest FIX: Switch graphics preset Custom -> Ultra -> Custom.

Now, refreshing the graphics wouldn't be a huge problem doing it once but we noticed the bug appears every time we'd load into a new server. At least some part of the graphics will break. Some goes unnoticed and some are very noticeable. One time I fix it and the game runs smoothly and then maybe I join another server and fix the graphics there again and the game starts to run very poorly, low fps and stuttering even with the same graphics settings.

Another thing that's an annoyance with the fixing process is that as soon as I switch to the Ultra preset, the game automatically turns that to a Custom preset without me customizing any of the settings there. So now I have to go and redo all the settings manually to the ones I prefer.

Anyways, I've added some screenshots; Before the fix and After the fix for comparison reasons and the other 4 screenshots are my custom graphics settings I used in both of those Before and After -screenshots (pretty much all settings are on Medium).

My PC's specs:
CPU: Intel i5-9600K
GPU: Nvidia RTX 2060 (6 GB VRAM)
RAM: 16GB
OS: Windows 11
Platforms: EA app & Steam

I have Skate. twice on my PC. One from EA app and another from Steam. And I have this same graphics bug happening in both versions of the game. My friend plays from Steam and also has this same issue. So this is not only EA app-, or Steam-, or my PC exclusive bug, so to say.
