I have been playing the new Dark Souls 2 DLC and there is a lighting glitch in a room that I want to fix, it seems to be because of ambient occlusion, but it is off in game so It must be being forced on by a program or something. I disabled SweeFX, GeDoSaTo, and no other programs are active (eg. RadeonPro)

So is there a way I could force ambient occlusion off? Much like how you can force vsync off or on with your video cards control panel.

I use an AMD card.
