-nosplotchfix

location: command-line    version: 2.01  
no values default: disabled (fix on)

ArghRad reduces the splotchy lighting and black-banding seen near light-emitting surfaces. The fix can really improve sky/warping surface light, but may cause minor problems with normal surfaces. This option disables the fix for normal surface lights.

Note: This does NOT disable the fix for sky/warping surface light.
