mkborgelt13 Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 (edited) Fallout: New Vegas: Purple Rain Edition -- SOS -- Please Help Hi all, I am using ENB for Fallout New Vegas. I use this to sharpen and "dry out" the textures with a subtle increase in contrast. I do not use most of the graphical bells and whistles (DOF, lens, etc). I have noticed that whenever I enter a cell near the Colorado River, a strong purple hue affects the lighting and scenery. I think this is related to the weather type for the Colorado River. I changed this weather type using the GECK to exactly match the normal clear weather, but the problem persists. My working theory is the ENB is magnifying the ambient or fog color associated with the weather. I've spent a while fiddling with the controls in-game and cannot figure out how to resolve this apart from decreasing the blue channel, which screws up other areas. Any advice or tips would be appreciated. Edit: Using a preset based on "Enhanced Shaders." Edited October 12, 2016 by mkborgelt13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkborgelt13 Posted October 12, 2016 Author Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) *bump* Fallout: New Vegas: Purple Rain Edition -- SOS -- Please Help Cottonwood Cove, Fortification Hill, Forlorn Hope, Camp Guardian, etc all have this bizarre purple lighting effect. Seems like it is present in vanilla too as a sepia tone. How do I get rid of it? Desert should not have purple sunlight! I've changed all the weather types (Hoover dam weather, Colorado river weather, legate camp weather, etc) to have the same ambient lighting color as default NV wasteland, and use same imagespace modifier. Spent hours fiddling with the ENB control panel, I can fine tune every aspect of visuals except the hideous purple! I can't get rid of the purple and it's killing my immersion!

dubiousintent Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 No idea. Try a different preset? Check out this entry on managing multiple presets in the wiki article "Fallout NV Mod Conflict Troubleshooting" guide. Otherwise, work through the checklist at the top to see if it might be something other than the preset itself. A thought that occurs is it might be due to a color saturation setting on your video card driver? You don't mention your version of Windows, but Win10 users have been having problems with updated video drivers pushed through Windows Updates. None have so far reported this issue though (usually they can't even start FNV). -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkborgelt13 Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 Thanks for the feedback. I am using Windows 7. I've managed to reduce the Purple Rain Effect by editing the following weathers: NVHooverDamWeatherNVWastelandClearEast There is still a faint purple gleam affecting the landscape, but it is a lot better than it was before. It is definitely having to do with the ENB amplifying a color. Fog color is the most obvious culprit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkborgelt13 Posted October 14, 2016 Author Share Posted October 14, 2016 Update -- I managed to completely fix this issue by editing the two weather types mentioned above to exactly mention the regular wasteland weather. Including ambient light, fog, sky, etc, for all times of day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubiousintent Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Congratulations, and thanks for the report. I've add a note to that effect to the "Fallout NV Mod Conflict Troubleshooting" guide. -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
