I just noticed that the Normal Maps of the terrain materials are inverted, producing weird shadows and highlights.
Although this is not a bug and doesn't affect gameplay, It clearly affects the visual quality of Dust 514.
Here's an UDK thread illustrating what is happening in Dust:

Sending this to the Art Director for them to determine if appropriate. Thanks for posting. |

I think i've noticed this and it's something i definitely don't like the look of and had been writing it off as a poor texture that was attempting to portray, for example, a rocky, gravelly sunlit surface but wasn't aligned with the direction of incoming light.
I think it's why peeps sometime call the look of DUST 'cartoonish'.
It wasn't high on my priority list so i was saving it for later.
Here's hoping you've identified the problem, Trowar. |

If they do fix it, it will look a lot better, that's for sure. |

Two updates and CCP keeps ignoring this, not to mention some pixelated textures... |
