Explanation

Bright light flashing in games.

While playing a game of either killer or survivor, sometimes a bright coloured light randomly flashes on the screen. This happens on different maps and modifications.

Flashes of light appear from the moment the game switched to Unreal Engine 5.
But I play a lot of other games on UE5, and I don't see this bug there. From this fact, I conclude that there is some way to fix it in DbD.

My PC if it can help:
AMD Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics 3.90 GHz
Colorful GeForce RTX 3060 12 ГБ (Ultra W OC)
Gigabyte B450M

There are additional video and logs, if needed.
