Steamrunner graphic issue?

Does anyone else have a problem with their Steamrunner? It seems blacked out in sector space, and dark and shadowed in orbital space. Is it just me?

    is your dynamic lighting effects on? or high quality lighting? I had to turn my quality off due to a graphics bug on multiple ships.

    I made sure my graphics were maxed out, with Dynamic lighting on. Same hull material, same position, same light source, etc.

    I have issues with the impulse engines vents in STO. I'm not sure, but this video shows much more logical placement of them.

    That is how my Steamrunner looks too.
    I even tried the different hull variants, to no avail,
    still looked like my ship absorbed all the light
    that normally would have reflected off.

    All other ships look fine, so it's not my settings

    Guess I'll be running in stealth mode
    for a while until they fix it.

    Maybe I should temporarily rename
    my ship to: USS Black Hole.

    Hmm. I've been using the tier 1 version on my low-end alt (haven't opened up the t5), and it looks just fine using the Veteran material.

    Maybe some pictorial evidences will help eliminate some confusion/doubt.

    These screens were taken in the same spot and under the same lighting conditions and with the same game settings.

    Both ships are wearing the default costumes

    Note the darkness and all the detail missing in this screen. It's even hard to see the windows and outline of the ship in places, even though the ship right next to mine appears normally.

    :confused:
