I have exactly the same problems
Streaming us worse I go back to my cusom ini
same problem!!!
Well, why not say that to me before I pre ordered my game? Could of saved my money and more important my time.
Bugger:
Has anyone figured out which settings affect them?
(Already mentioned vegitation quality and draw distance is linked)…
Same problem after Patch 1.3.1 via Steam for PC.
In Ultra settings with various options sleected, previously:
Object distance
LOD distance
Vegetation draw distance
settings were set to max.
Now I can set them to Max and Confirm but opening the Advanced Settings again they are reverted back to their default lower settings.
It makes a noticeable distance in-game.
Same here. Was tinkering with LOD and these 3 settings (Object distance, LOD distance, Vegetation draw distance) only get saved if you choose a higher preset. So much for deep tweaking.
As others have pointed out, apparently for good or bad the sliders are now directly linked to the corresponding visual settings above them.
But to what extent are they linked?
I have everything set to Ultra, yet still these sliders revert to lower levels.

did you set everything to ultra and hit apply, and then you couldn’t turn those settings up still?
same here 
i turned evrything to ultra, put the slider to max. after saving the ultra settings are still set but the slider is back to a medium setting.
put the slider to max again, saved, sliders back to medium.
Sounds like we will need to poll users here to figure out which hardware is applying these limits;
is it four core or less CPUs? Is it less than 16Gb of RAM?is it certain video cards?..
Ithink Iwill wait before applying the patch if its going to force me to lower settings. Ienjoy the game at ULTRA+ and framerate is MYchoice.
Obviously they have done this to curtail whingers who feel that all games should run on Ultra settings on their PCs. To be fair this games med/high settings are last years ultra high/high…
It is stunning… Iunderstand why they need to force users hands on this (it isn’t worth the negative press from muppets complaining about framerates on ultra high plus)

i7 8700K - 16gig ram - gtx1080 cant change the silders…well back to bloodborne until they fix it
One user on Steam has advised the following Console commands for LOD:
e_ViewDistRatio X – This changes the distance at which objects start to render (Low being 50, Ultra being 125).
e_ViewDistRatioVegetation X – Use this to change the distance at which trees start to render (Low being 50, Ultra being 65).
e_MergedMeshesInstanceDist X – And this changes the distance at which grass is animated (default is 20).

then it is fair to expect everyone should be gimped by this new feature…
handy post above… offering all the console settings.
I use g_showHUD 0 (and g_showHUD1) to turn the heads up display off and on (respectively).
tilde key (below ESC) to bring up the console.
might be a hassle to apply each time, but might convince me to apply the patch if Ido regain control…

thanks i will try it out 
You can still change the draw distance variables inside attributes.xml
(c:\users\yourname\saved games\kingdomcome\profiles\default)
These were the max. values before 1.3:
“LodRatio” value="70"
“MergedMeshesRatio” value="100"
“ViewDistRatio” value=“250”

e_LodRatio = X – This defines how close to you better textures are loaded. (default value for High preset was 25, you can check your current value by entering e_LodRatio in the console).
