Mine does that aswell, not as bad but it makes the 12x scope useless.

Adjust the contrast, brightness for sure.

Looks like the Bloom turned back on. that happens any time you change video settings. open (in wordpad) the settings file and make sure Bloom=false.

That SHOULD work - but it doesn't.

works fine for me.

here are my settings...
[WindowSettings]
Width=1920
Height=1200
Fullscreen=true
RefreshRate=59.950001
VSync=false
[Sound]
Quality=low
VoipEnable=false
SpeakerCount=0
[Graphics]
Effects=high
Soldiers=medium
Vehicles=medium
Overgrowth=medium
Undergrowth=medium
StaticObjects=medium
Terrain=medium
Shadows=medium
Bloom=false
HSAO=false
MSAA=0
Water=high
MainQuality=custom
Texture=medium
DxVersion=auto
Aniso=0
Detail=medium
RenderAheadLimit=2
Fov=85

So maybe the HSAO=false is needed too but that setting doesn't default back to true like bloom does.

HSAO is just ambient occlusion, at most it would actually darken the screen... so how are you connecting it with bloom? Besides, its probably the HDR which causes the whiteouts.
