#252 Blooming effect is extreme with low and fair shadow setting.

Status: Awaiting review · Area: Graphics & Art · Lighting & Shadows

With Shadow Quality on low or fair, bloom glare becomes extreme in some areas and hurts visibility so much the game is hard to play.

Current behavior

If you run the game with low or fair "Shadow Quality" setting the blooming effects are extreme in some areas of the game. Here are two screenshots I took from the same point of view in Ashenvale: First screenshot was taken with "Shadow Quality": low (but looks same with fair), and the second with "good". In some area the game is almost unplayable with low shadow quality because of this issue.

Expected behavior

Shadow settings should not impact the visability of the world, you should still be able to see as far as with good or higher settings.

How to reproduce

Switch to low or fair "Shadow Quality".
