ghoul_drool Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 ...and I hate it. I have a specific theme in mind for my Tatooine stronghold (which, incidently, is totally worth unlocking) but because the light ambience of the stronghold is permanently set to 'dusk', it makes any crystals I put down glow. Not just glow. They glow very, very bright as if they're powered lamps. With every single other placable suffering from muted colours with the 'dusk' light, they stand out. Way too much for my tastes. I'd rather see the glow effect tuned down, because they certainly don't do it in Dromund Kaas, nor in Nar Shaddaa, not the most brightest places either.

Kulyok Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Interesting. My crystal room in Dromund Kaas doesn't sparkle at all. Maybe I should try Tatooine? Got three strongholds already, though - no space for the fourth(hoping for Manaan or Voss later). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeJarC Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 (edited) .... because the light ambience of the stronghold is permanently set to 'dusk', it makes any crystals I put down glow. Not just glow. They glow very, very bright as if they're powered lamps. .... Which crystals are you referring to? I got the Rubat, Upari, Perfect Upari and Firkran crystal decorations and they are just as bright on Tatooine as on Nar Shaddaa, Coruscant or Dromund Kaas. (Yes I unlocked all 4 strongholds). Also wouldn't call the lighting 'dusk'. True, the suns appear to be setting and it looks late afternoon in the distance, but the amount of outside light is not what I'd call 'dusk' Hmmm... no idea if this affects the crystal nodes too, but do you have Bloom turned on? If so turn it off. It gets applied to just about anything that remotely looks like a light source and even to things which should never be able to show a bloom effect. In short, it makes everything look way over-bright. And it totally destroys the look of planets in travel cut-scenes.

Turning off bloom fixed my issues, thanks =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPilot Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Personally, I LOVE it. It completely transformed my plans for my Guild stronghold (which I am now wishing I just made my own because now my guild isn't playing so I'm just spending twice as much for Tatooine for just me...) I was surprised though, and it's good to know we could work around it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
