Orange Lighting Bug: Lighting Issue During Early Morning Hours (2024)

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Hello!

The game is currently experiencing a lighting issue that makes everything appear orange. I’m not sure if the problem stems from how aerosols are being processed or if it’s an issue with the clouds. I’ve been testing, and this bug seems to occur during the morning.

In this first example, I positioned myself at ESSA during a snowstorm at 11:33 local time. As you can see, it looks more like a sandstorm than a snowstorm, giving the impression of being on Mars:

However, it should look more like this other image, where I tinkered a bit with Nvidia filters:

Here’s another screenshot taken an hour later:

A different capture but without live weather, without any type of snow or precipitation and with a single cloud layer 5000 feet thick:

Interestingly, the effect seems to disappear once a certain time frame is surpassed, as we can see here:

But overall, the game looks too orange. This is only the tip of the iceberg. I hope you guys consider to eliminate this ugly orange/sepia tone from the game and give us a clear natural look instead.
