Explanation

Visual bug in main menu and ingame. Very dark fog on darker maps or shining highlights on brighter maps/around fires in the form of rectangles shown on the pictures and in the video. Especially bad on dark maps because you nearly can't see anything in those areas of the screen. The rectangles move with turning the screen and are dragged along. Not as bad as it is distracting on brighter maps but very disturbing on dark maps. The fog is very dark and dense in the rectangles and is only on the left side of the screen. My resolution and other imprtant settings can be seen in the video.
