Reduce the lens flare/glare in Ark

[[JiF]Mike]

Enter these two commands in the console to reduce the glare. It doesn't make it go away completely, but it's a lot better.

r.bloomquality 0 (has a range of 1 to 5, 0 is believed to be off)
r.lightshafts 0 (is either on 1, or off 0)

I have not found a way to make this stick after the game is closed. It has even come on again while I played. Annoying, yes, but not as much as that silly glare.

Hope this helps.

The water, the torches up at the gate and the moonlight. It sure can be a pretty game at times.

The game remembers console commands even between sessions. Up arrow recall.
I wonder if they could be added in Steam in the "Set Launch Options" for the game.
