Mass Effect 3 Graphics issue
I recently went back to playing mass effect 3 after a six month break and I noticed a strange issue occurong regarding graphics.
It begins with the start screen, and can be seen everywhere from the menu screen to game play. The issue is this: I see a pixelated red aura effect around things like:
- Reapers falling from the sky in the start screen
- Computer screens in the menu screen
- deployed smoke grenade clouds
- red auras around squad mates in multi-player
- many other things
This red "pixilated" "digital" red aura effect is everywhere, and very odd.
I have attempted the following to remedy this issue, and so far, nothing has worked:
- Updated the game through origin
- repaired the game through origin
- uninstalled the game
- reinstalled the game
- Updated computer drivers
- lowered the graphics settings, both in game and also through the masseffec3config utility
I have been playing ME3 for a few years on this computer, without any issue until now. Here is the info for the machine I am running it on:
COMPUTER: Acer Aspire V5-571P
OS: Windows 8.1, 64 bit
RAM: 6 GB
PROCESSOR: Intel i5-337U 1.8GHz
GPU: Intel HD Graphics 4000
I don't know what else to do, so I submit my puzzle to you, in hopes of fixing this.
