Character texture quality issue when adjusting Video Options
Short summary/description:
When adjusting the "Character texture quality" to the minimum setting (50%) spots appear on the character's face.
CATEGORY :
Graphics
How to reproduce:
1 - open the Options dialog and select Video
2 - click on the "Advanced Settings" check box to display the advanced setting
3 - adjust the Character texture quality to 50%
4 - in about 5 seconds spots appear on the face
5 - adjust the Character texture quality to a higher setting, wait about 5 seconds and the spots disappear
Since I am having this issue as well, I figured I'd offer some screenshots to help visualize the graphical bug. As you can see, any setting below 75% alters how the character's face is displayed and makes these odd spots visible. When making an alien, these spots (for me) are yellow, rather than black.
*EDIT*
This bug also occurs while in-game when looking at your character through the status window. Changing the settings has no impact at all on removing this glitch. The glitch also occurs on the portraits for your bridge officers while in your ship.
