I’m getting insanely bad graphics issues with AMD RX 6900XT. Its not that the GPU is lagging or anything, its permanently at 120FPS… its that the lighting glare is actually ridiculous - to the point I genuinely can’t see anything.
I can’t upload an image because “new users cannot upload images” (been a Halo player since Halo: CE and registered on forums since before 343i was a thing).
But I’m talking that when stepping outside, the lighting flare is so bad that 60-90% of the screen goes almost pure white.
In multiplayer, that map with the two forerunner structures facing each other for CTF, with the man-cannons either side - you know the one - yeah I can’t see anything on that unless I stand in the shade - it’s ridiculous.
There has to be some kind of setting issue here. I’ve tried both the Xbox install, and the Steam install - both exactly the same issues - and yes, I’ve updated my GPU to the latest drivers - it was the first thing I did.
I’m sorry, I don’t know what you mean “fake HDR modes” - what modes should be disabled, and if they should be disabled - why aren’t they disabled by default?
I could’ve been clearer. Some TVs and monitors include features like “game HDR” as a selling point, when in reality it’s a post-processing feature instead of a display capability. They’re used to improve the white parts of an image but can cause outdoor scenes to be blindingly bright.
I don’t know what kind of monitor/TV you’re using so it’s hard to be certain, though.
Samsung Super-Ultrawide 120Hz 5120x1440
I’ve actually found that turning HDR ON in Windows Settings has alleviated a lot of the issues.
The graphics are still a bit “grainy” where the sharpness is way off, but the light-flare effect is massively reduced.
Ooh, good monitor. I would just calibrate the display at this point to ensure that colors, contrast and brightness are on point, but you probably already knew that.
(Also, I think there is film grain setting? I don’t remember…)
