Terribile smearing effect after setting distance to 512, even after restarting the game

Hi, I cmae back testing this mod after the new alpha released, and altough I noticed very interesting improvements and a much easier modding and integration with other mods, after I changed the distance from 256 to 512 to try to load some LODs that were not loading, I have been experiencing an atrocious smearing effect, that persists even after restarting the world and the game. Any fixes?
