**Issue Description:**  
With certain lighting (fairly common) lighting appears to cause textures to appear in distinct blocks rather than as a smooth surface.

**Steps to Reproduce:**  
For me this happens most often in the Torrent and some places of Enclavum Baross on the walls, but I can consistently reproduce this using character skin tones and standing by the lighting at Brunt’s Armory. See attached screenshot.

Graphics card: AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT.  
CPU: Intel(R) Core™ i7-4790K CPI @ 4.00 GHz

**Mission Name (If Applicable):**  
Torrent/Enclavum Baross

**Platform:**  
Steam

**Reproduction Rate:**  
Constant (100%)
