    Hello after playing for a longtime and never really understood why it looked like crap and did not really care.

    But with the update and the better looking map it start to be ugly..

    I tried changing the setting and it seem to be a lighting bug.

    I have a 7950 and 3 1080p ips panel and windows 8.1 on a ssd ( eyefinity )


    0/4 the problem disappear at 1/4 it ugly as crap and after that it just bad enough to be annoying...


    So here is the video

    Ugly doesn't really tell me anything..

    I think I see your problem, those weird grainy lines that gets there are soon you put on 1/4 that option.

    (0/4 doesn't exist, I will call the lowest option 1/4)

    Explanation:
    1/4 makes the game use a very basic shadow mode, low quality and etc. (What you call ugly)
    2/4 makes the game use the proper shadow mode, at the lowest resolution
    3/4 (default option for the game) is the normal shadows. Uses the proper shadow mode, at normal resolution
    4/4 is the proper shadow mode at higher resolution.

    So, if your complain is about 2/4 giving you bad shadows, it's normal. It's like putting a game on low gfx settings and say it looks bad <.<

    I can't really tell, looking at that video from a single 1920x1080 monitor isn't the best thing..

    (imported from here)

    A screenshot would be better..

    (Scaling the video on the y-axis would help)

    From what I can see (wich is barely anything), I think that you mean a slight grainyness.(?)

    Try deleting the BeamNG.Drive folder in MyDocuments to make the settings go back to default. Check in both single screen and triple screen, and please post some screenshot so we '1 monitor peasant' can have a better look at your problem..
