NFS Most Wanted "washed out"
I've got a random question here I wonder if anyone can help me out with. I have Most Wanted (2012) on PC and while the game looks gorgeous, I have noticed a strange thing. While driving, the image looks slightly washed out, almost like a white filter over the camera. However whenever I make contact with objects/cars or hit the ground hard, it temporarily disappears, showing off an even better picture quality. I have tried playing around with the graphics settings in-game and have no idea what might be causing this. Is this just some weird part of the game that I will just have to live with? I have experienced no other problems with performance and it runs fantastic otherwise. For reference this is the machine I am running it on: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Zook024/saved/2z4scf
I have tried repairing and updating the game with no luck. to get an idea of what I am talking about, this is with the haze and this is without.
Of course, right after posting my question, I've found a solution. I suspected a problem with the brightness / contrast / gamma adjustments I had made earlier.
I reset those as follows:
- Open the Documents > Criterion Games > Need For Speed(TM) Most Wanted > config.NFS13Save file using a text editor (e.g. Notepad)
- Change the following lines:
- Brightness=0
- Contrast=0
- GammaRamp=0.990
- Save the file and run NFS Most Wanted
I haven't touched the brightness / contrast / gamma controls in-game after that, and it now looks absolutely stunning!
