Re: [FIXED] Lot information icon shining all the time as if something there was new

I'm on PC, recently had to reinstall the game and started having this issue.
I think I found a way to fix it:

  1. Open the UserSetting.ini file (same location as the Mods folder)
  2. Scroll down to the [uiaccountsettings] section
  3. Add this missing entry:
    <prefix>#viewedflairextension_bblotinfopanel#boolean = true
    where <prefix> is the same number that all other entries in this [uiaccountsettings] section have.

If anyone else is willing to try, let me know if it works but make sure to back up the file before editing just in case.

It solved the issue for me at least!

    I can confirm this has worked for me!

    I have two different ID numbers in this section, so I doubled the entry with each number just in case.

    Thank you so much!

    The Venue Info icon in the top left of your screen contains a lot of useful information but it doesn’t mean it should always display as new. Now the icon flair will only show when something is actually new.

    Fixed in Patch 1.95.207/1.69
