Trees and roof different in map of Starfleet Academy

frtoaster

The trees in the map of Starfleet Academy have fewer leaves than before. Furthermore, the building where Lieutenant Ferra resides is now partially covered by a roof that was not there before. These changes were introduced by "Agents of Yesterday: Artifacts". Compare the "Before" and "After" images below.

Graphics settings

My graphics settings are exactly the same on Holodeck and Tribble. Note that a bug on Holodeck causes the "Advanced" tab to always display "Bloom intensity" as set to 57%. The actual value of GfxSettings.BloomIntensity in my gameprefs.pref file is 0.2. Also, note that I have "Lighting 2.0" turned off on Tribble.

I just noticed that someone actually altered the trees at Starfleet Academy.

I guess the new trees are intended. I'm not sure about the roof though. Why cover most of it, but leave the top half in the middle uncovered?

I noticed the changes to the foliage on all the plants on SFA...not just the huge tree, but the large shrubs, and hedges. They look very nice and more dimensional the way it is done on Tribble. (Please fix the red flowers on the rose bushes....they look like dark blobs, now.)

Unfortunately...other issues with the bad lighting is taking the spotlight. It is a damnshame because you can see what they are working toward within a few of the elements...but it is just not there, yet.

I am staying off Tribble until another patch....if there is one.

I am totally expecting this to go to Holodeck in a partial state....being corrected over time.
I "get" they do what they can, when they can. They got a lot on their plate.
But that doesn't mean it doesn't disappoint me.
It was the all the visuals that attracted me to this game.
