Since DayZ Update 1.30, I have noticed an excessive artificial light illuminating the ground approximately 1–3 meters around my character at night.

This happens even when no flashlight or light source is equipped, including while driving a vehicle.

I have played on the same official European Livonia server, using the same PS5, TV and brightness settings, before and after the update. This excessive illumination was not present before version 1.30.

The effect is uncomfortable, interferes with nighttime visibility and significantly reduces immersion.

Could you please investigate whether Personal Light or the server lighting configuration has changed unintentionally in Update 1.30?

1. Launch DayZ on PlayStation 5, version 1.30.164078.38.

2. Join an official European Livonia server.

3. Wait until nighttime.

4. Make sure no flashlight, glow stick, headlamp or other light source is active.

5. Walk through a dark forest or an area without artificial lighting.

6. Observe the excessive artificial illumination on the ground approximately 1–3 meters around the character.

7. Enter a vehicle at night and observe that the same illumination is still visible.

Expected result: Nighttime lighting should behave as it did before Update 1.30, without excessive artificial illumination around the character.

Actual result: A strong, flashlight-like glow illuminates the ground around the character, making nighttime visibility uncomfortable and reducing immersion.

Additional information: This issue appeared immediately after Update 1.30. The same PS5, TV, brightness settings and official Livonia server were used before the update without this problem.
