I have a character I haven't played since late April because she's lost her scars.  After the updates in May, I fired up her last save from late April and *poof* no scars appeared.  I've fidded and fiddled with the settings to no avail regardless of what I do.  I even kicked everything up to ultra (my poor poor video card screamed) and they're still not there.

 

I am still using that April save to check, so it isn't like she's been overwritten with some new data in the save file.  I do note that The Black Emporium was in one of the patches that was applied since I last played her.  Don't know if that is relevant or not, but fearing perhaps introducing that removes any scarring on the character?  I don't want to even try going there to use the mirror to recreate the scar because I know I won't get it just like it was.

 

So anyway, after you suffered through that rambling, I really just want to know precisely which settings I need to be messing with for the facial features (and hair, since shine inexplicably came back as well.)  Though as I've ramped everything to ultra once, not sure what good it will do knowing at this point...   I don't care if I have to bottom everything else out to low.  I want my Inky detailed.

One of previous patches added addictional graphic setting. It's called shader and it should be at the very bottom of graphic settings. For scars and other facial details to appear it should be set at high or ultra.

Edit: Please ignore me, I totally jumped in to answer, not reading your post carefully enough  :blush:

Regarding the disappearance of your scars, you can put them back with the Black Emporium, so it's definitely worth it for you.  You put them there for a reason and can have them back.

 

With the patches being released, I've found several settings reset to default when you fire the game up or shortly thereafter.  I don't know why it sometimes doesn't happen right away, but the point is that if you return them to what you want, they'll stick, until the next patch.  

 

Hair shine seems to be tied to resolution, so setting a higher level in options should correct the problem.  I do find that the game seems to crash more frequently with it set higher, especially during visually intense cutscenes or combat, but it doesn't really happen all that often and I think for me, enjoying fantastic visuals is worth the occasional crash.  Just don't forget to save frequently if you go this route, because if the game autosaves during or right before a crash, the file's probably corrupted.  Quicksaves seem unaffected by this.

Well... it worked!  I don't know why setting the general graphics setting to ultra previously didn't do the trick.  What I just tried was setting the general overall graphics setting to medium and then I cranked up mesh and shaders to ultra.  Viola, scars!

Interesting on the resolution, thanks!   Rascoth's tip brought my scars back, so good there :)

 

Thanks, both of you!
