@CGrant56 Thank you very much for testing my issue. Did you test on short walls?
Yes, the picture were taking with CC, but I had used non CC before and when I saw the issue I tested with the above curtain and candle cc and the problem was the same. I do not have any lighting files or overlay in my game. Just some cc and a few mods. The issue also happens whis cabinets on short walls. The top of the cabinet will look pinkish. Not on medium walls though. Actually everything that is close to a floor has this issue with short walls. I do not have all the packs. The candle in the picture is a cc clone from a christmas candle. Not sure why this would shine true the floors. I will start a new save file now and test without cc and will let you know.

So here is a new test without cc. Issue is the same.
I have to correct myself. It happens on all wall heights
medium wall
tall wall - not as bad as short and medium wall heights
Sorry to post again, but as I went through the rest of the lights I found that the lava lamp is even worse even with the ceiling light on.
Most stuff downstairs picks up the color of the lava lamp upstairs.
Here the lamp is on a side table in the corner
and in this picture the whole side wall picks up the color from the lava lamp in the corner
Thanks for going back and doing such exhaustive testing! I'll go back and test again. The effect in your pics shows clearly. I tested on both medium and short walls and did use the lava lamp, among others when I was testing. And I used those curtains that you show in the latest pics as well among others. I had the lamps on a side table too. I also tested it at night in a new build that hadn't been furnished yet but the house was completely enclosed. I just didn't get what you are showing in your pics.
One more question though. Does this happen in both build mode and live mode for you or does it happen in one but not the other? I tested in build mode only so if it is happening for you only in live mode, that might be the difference. This time I will test in live mode too.
So, where does that leave us? Hardware is one candidate I can think of. I play on a desktop PC with a relatively high-end graphics card. I see you play on a PC but is it a desktop or laptop? If this issue is hardware related, tbh, there's not much you'll be able to do about it and will have to live with it.
Other than that, I can't think of anything else that might be causing the issue atm. So, let me do some more testing to see if I can replicate the issue and I'll get back to you.
Hope this helps.
