Yah it's pretty bad, I filled out a bug report for it myself....
Lens Flare, which I didn't notice before this latest patch, looks absolutely aweful. Now I'm not anti-lense flare, I actually like it and think it makes sense when done right, however the way it's done currently in STO looks terrible and detracts from the game. It's a simple ring and hexagon, please either improve it drastically so it's much higher quality (And only shows where it's supposed to and not through solid objects) or remove it.
Same here. Was inside Sol station and kept seeing an opaque shape and starburst. Finally realized it was supposed to be lens flare from the Sun... through several layers of station walls.
Tried turning lens flares off in options, among many other tweaks, but not go. Changed nothing.
How did they break the graphic engine. Cryptic... just sad.
Anyone figure out a fix or at least a way to turn it off?
Not to mention the "Suns" look like weird simi-glowy gas balls instead of suns. dont know how that got passed as ok maybe its mission something and its just low on the totem pole but it really looks like poopie behind.
