San Paro absorbs light

surrender to the void

Based on leaked screenshots it seems to have been fixed in the engine upgrade. But it would be nice to have the light absorbing black fog heavily reduced if not entirely removed in the meantime until we get the new engine.

It's the difference between this from now.

And this from RTW

Also the old bloom used to be really nice. Get the current circle shaped disgusting shit out of here. Bring back that nice cross shaped anamorphic bloom.
Also the colors on the engine upgrade aren't as good as RTW, but still blessed. I'm looking forward to the upgrade.

Maybe that's just a bad picture then.

Wrong. 

It's the storm, guys move to the safe circle before it gets closer. Don't forget your shield potions.

Are you sure it's not radioactive clouds?

I wish we could see the old graphics APB used to have
Or maybe something better?

Doesn't this happen with the white void as well? E.g. daytime?

You could "fix" it by upping or removing the fog render distance.
AFAIK 3.5 has a higher render distance as @IAmDisappointSon stated.

Not nighttime but you get the general idea:

This is 3.5:

It would be awesome if they would just recolor it and reduce the density to what it used to be so it can serve as light pollution again.

Thanks, I'll give that a try when I get home.  In that 3.5 screenshot I think I'm still seeing the bug where at night bloom is only visible when it's against the sky.  That spooks me a bit, but I remember seeing this screenshot a long time ago so they might have already fixed it.  I do really like the 3.5 lighting schemes though, how night scenes have a mild greenish tint from the fluorescent lights.  Asylum looks really cool like that in the screenshots G1 shared a while ago.  And how daytime actually looks warm again.  It goes a little crazy with the contrast though, especially in the editor.  When you're making a car, if you decide that you want it to be a somewhat bright yellow, it'll just appear white with a huge @ss blob of bloom over it.

One thing I'll say looks pretty great though is Asylum at night with fog.  It's a weird light blueish colored fog that gives a kinda neat atmosphere.  It looks really stupid when you can see it inside the building, but it looks cool when you're outside.

I also noticed that the reason sunset still looks so good in this game is because the blue filter just seems to shut off when the sunset part of the cycle begins.  Then you have perfect clarity and everything looks warm and nice.  So if that filter wasn't there, daytime would probably look a lot warmer too.

Is removing the fog like in that screenshot bannable? If not then I'd love to know how to do it as a temporary fix until the engine upgrade.

According to Matt they don't ban for it, and it'll be fixed in 3.5.
So, it really depends on how you look at it.

It is a shader modification after all.

It's the bloom effect. Turn it off and it's perfect, like with Dreams's modified RTW shaders.
