Re: Colored Glow Sticks Brightness

@ATFGunrYeah nice shot for sure. Im S100, and I can barely see them in game. If mine looked like that, I would only die from HE bombs.

So you think the video is manipulated and just blooms the glow sticks?

@ATFGunrLOL no those are enemy, you do know you can change the colors? Watch his kill messages, they are the same as the new colored enemies.

@ATFGunrI'm gonna test in solo now.

Not helpful, bots don't have them.

Those green glowstick are definitely the enemy. There are other full videos on his Twitch page clearly showing enemy players with bright yellow/green glowsticks. His friendlies have muted blue glowsticks. Also notice in that short clip on twitter that the close friendlies glow blue. And there there is one enemy that runs right through them.

Edited to remove my comments about reporting this. Apologies to the streamer, if they are reading. This isn't reshade. This is built in. ☹️

Some earlier in the thread stated that you can't change the glow stick color, only the icon/nameplates. That is incorrect. The custom color changes the glowsticks as well (both friendly and enemy). I replicated the exact same thing the stream has and it looks bright like his twitch video when using that same color. I think the brightness is increased due to overall higher RGB total values values for some colors, as well as the contrast and some built-in effect with the engine.

@ATFGunr @Adamonic 

It's accessibility settings. I just replicated the same thing as the streamer with the in-game settings. I edited my prior post to retract it being reportable. It's not reshade. The increased brightness appears to be an artifact of the game engine with certain custom colors.

@Trokey66nope, I use those normally as I am color blind like crazy.

I have tried to change the colors manually, but I cannot get the enemy glow sticks to bloom like that.

For those curious too, please Me Too the first post so it gets CM visibility.

@EA_Atic is this a bug or working as intended for enemy glow sticks to bloom like that?

@Adamonic 

ACCESSIBILITY & OPTIONS -> ACCESSIBILITY :

 DISPLAY: Colorblind = Custom

 DISPLAY: Custom Enemy Color

The equivalent config settings are:

GstRender.ColorBlindCustomColorEnemy 190/55/50/255/2.0/0.583/0.470/1.0

GstRender.ColorBlindMode 4

@DigitalHypeThat’s where I had been looking, didn’t see one that changed colors for body markers. Is it simply changing the Doritos colour and that also changes the glow stick?

Correct. Changing those settings for UI overlays also correspond to the glow sticks, as well as other things (like scoreboard and even the network graph).
