Re: HDR is still broken

 I have an HDR supported monitor, when i enable HDR in NFS Unbound the game becomes washed out, when i swap between fullscreen/windowed/borderlass there is a split second where the game enables HDR colors but it doesn't stay. 

An unreliable workaround that is not practical is to have the game go into window mode, open youtube video with HDR, then alt tab back into the game and go to BORDERLESS (not even fullscreen) - this is unreliable and doesn't work everytime. 

This game has been out for over a year, there is no way there is not a fix or even acknowledgement that the HDR doesn't enable reliably in the game.

Please any help is appreciated, the goal is to enable HDR reliably with fullscreen so you don't have to compromise framerate.

    I'm on RTX 3080TI - HDR is simply not turned on in-game,  its clearly turned on in windows but when I go into the game the HDR isn't truly on despite being on "Auto". I have to open and reopen the game many times to play with HDR on while a youtube video plays in the background plus with it being in Borderless it causes my game to run at about 50fps in intense situations. This gaming expierence is actually terrible but NFS Heat is wayyy too easy even on the hardest difficulty.

    IMPORTANT NOTE: For those that are using the workaround for HDR via Youtube Video HDR, YOU MUST HAVE HARDWARE ACCELERATION ENABLED for it to work, just found this out after disabling it and trying forever. But still this workaround is not very practical.
