Pink lights in Phi? - humanoid - 09-26-2015

So I'm not sure if this is a general problem with the engine or just level specific but I don't recall noticing it at an earlier point in the game, only in Phi (perhaps because the lights weren't placed like that anywhere else?).

As you can see in the attached pictures, looking at the lights that are placed behind grids in an angular way, they will appear pink through the grid rather than white.
However they are rendered correctly when looking at them from a more perpendicular point of view.

System info:
OS: Win 7 x64
CPU: Intel i5-3570k
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 670 (latest driver installed)
RAM: 8GB

Not really, its just slightly immersion breaking but at that point in the game it doesn't really matter anyway I guess Tongue

I also looked around a bit more and saw the same effect mostly where that grid was placed, only a lot less apparent (I guess the white backsurface of the light greatly enhanced this effect).

Attached the log of an instance where I loaded a Phi save and ran around a bit, doubt that it contains any useful info though.

However afterwards I also played around a bit with the graphic options/effects and it seems that the (enabled) Color Separation option is responsible for this graphic anomaly.
But I guess I'll leave it on since its really just a minor problem for me, but of course I would be happy if this could get resolved at some point.

This is most likely due to ChromAbb, so just heal and it should go away Smile
