Yellow Halo on screen in all perspectives.

Hey all, I have an odd yellow halo that appears no matter where I am on the ship (even exterior view). Here are a few screenshots:

This look like color filter for periscope or binocular, placed in [G3F] group. Are you edit menu_1024_768.ini file?

No I didn't edit anything. The problem goes away when I restart the game though and then comes back from time to time.

If you do not plan to in the future to use a filter, the menu_1024_768.ini block [G3F I321] before the line Mat 0 = data / menu / Gui / filter.tga put ;. Should look like this:

[G3F I321]
Name = Optic Filter
Type = 1030
ItemID = 0x3F039903
ParentID = 0x3F1C0000
Pos = -1388,920,850,850
Display = 0
Materials = 1
; Mat 0 = data / menu / Gui / filter.tga
MatFlags = 0x29
TexFmt = 0x9

Good luck

Thanks a million.. almost drowe my insane to have it up everytime I choose the rudder :up:

Wonderful work btw.. love to be able to play this goodie again, now in in 1920x1080.

But it gives out 10 error messages everytime I start it, due to the d3d9 files
(Win7 64 bit, GTX770 oc 2 gb) But just holding down the eac button for 10 secons is a lot better then using binoculars to see you standard resolution on my screen :salute:
