Re: [OPEN] Unusually dark/bright lighting on certain shrubs

@fischdeo I can confirm the behavior you're describing with the Wild Grass, Lovely Lavender Bush, Lovely Lavender Hedge, Granite Falls Blossom, and also the Not-Grass Grass shrubs.  They are virtually black inside a well lit room and light up at night in San Myshuno as if they were lights instead of plants.  Will add to our list.  Could you also amend your original post to add the Not-Grass Grass to your list, so that the devs don't miss it?

    I am currently on version 1.61.15.1020 (all packs installed and active, still no mods or CC) and the lighting issues are still there. The attached screenshots are from today, the 16th of March 2020.

    Popping in to bump the thread as the shading issue is still present.

    I am currently on version 1.77.146.1030 with all packs and kits except for Journey to Batuu and Throwback Fit installed and active, (still no mods or CC).
    Attached are some new screenshots from today, the 14th of August 2021, of some of the affected non-interactive plant items.

    I've noticed that a few wall-mounted plant items from Eco Living that, while not being pitch black, are still shaded much darker than other wall-mounted plants and items when placed indoors.

    Ugh I hate this. It's so limiting in terms of what plants we can use in our builds because their lighting is so messed up! Some examples I can instantly think of are the Island living leafy indoor plant and the otherwise absolutely gorgeous palm tree we got with Courtyard oasis kit but they look too dark when placed indoors! I see youtube builders complain about this constantly yet I guess we're not making enough noise for the sims team to fix this. I wish some gamechanger simmers were to start advocating for finally fixing these build issues..
