[QUOTE="smbhax, post: 298094, member: 396"] Thanks for tracking all this, PW! I'm pretty late to this reboot PFX party and was kind of shocked when I finally tried this latest Pinball FX out last night and loaded up Monster Bash on PS4--the lighting is all blown out! It's like the bad old days of Pinball Arcade! = o Looking at videos on YouTube, it looks like "1 year ago" the lighting was about the same as in Pinball FX3, ie quite smooth and pretty much what you would want--maybe just a hair less vibrant than 3's? Still nice though: (PC version shown) [ATTACH type="full" alt="old.jpg"]907[/ATTACH] [MEDIA=youtube]yzjeuJbehVs[/MEDIA] And then at some point between then and this video from "6 months ago" it got blown out and gross, like, I don't know, maybe they tried to increase the contrast or something, but yikes: (PC version shown) [ATTACH type="full" alt="new.jpg"]908[/ATTACH] [MEDIA=youtube]IkKMoX_AdpY[/MEDIA] Was this the "update 0.1.1.47645 (Williams graphics/lights, May 5, 2022)" ( [URL]https://digitalpinballfans.com/threads/master-list-of-issues-pinball-fx.14353/post-297044[/URL] )? Have they said anything about further plans for the lighting? Man, it looks gross. I may be mistaken but my impression was that the LCD was slightly blurrier now, too. The other thing I struggled with was that there doesn't seem to be a way to turn off their silly added-on animating 3D action figures and pop-up things. In FX3, you could turn those off. Sheez. The new physics stuff feels really nice though, especially with the steeper table incline in Pro mode, so dang I guess I'm stuck with this graphical downgrade. It's like they're pulling a FarSight or something. = o They were so solid on the graphical front up to this point. Oh but the colored flippers are totally sweet. Whoa except the person who made that second video turned them off, what a nutter. [/QUOTE]
