Please! let us turn this off in replay editor!

I spent two hours trying to get a clip of this one particular sequence and when I finally landed it too my horror I realized I didn't notice the block party happening just next to me and the resulting green boundary line and smoke being in the replay.  As someone who strives for realism I refuse to have these types of visuals in my clips and I'm not the only one.  

I made a post a little while back regarding similar visuals being in the replay and I really hope we can get this solved.

    The only time I'd want any of these in my clip is if they release a Star Wars map... then all the holograms will make sense! lol. Hopefully they make this one a reality

    so just to let anyone know who gets in a situation like this where let's you got a really cool clip but the block party boundary lines are in the background. 

    if you just leave the replay editor open you can wait it out until the block party leaves and you will actually see in real time the block party visuals will disappear because world events happen in real time through the editor despite when you opened it. 

    I found this out because it happened to me again on Isle of Morg but this time with my replay editor still open I left my PC and came back 10 minutes later to find the visuals were gone and I was able to finish editing my clip with no ugly green boundaries in the background.

    I’d still like a definitive fix. While it’s good to know there’s a workaround, it may not always work: if a block party goes on longer than three minutes, you’ll lose your footage.

    On a related note, it’s soul destroying to be working on a clip and have a block party roll in and effectively disable your replay editor…

    Hey SameWayOfSaying​, 

    While I can't promise a specific timeline for when this will be resolved, I can assure you that this has been raised directly with the team and is actively under investigation. The workarounds shared are intended as quick, temporary solutions to help in the meantime, but reaching a permanent, definitive fix is always what we strive for.
