In SH3, with the GWX3 mod, i do get a little banding on the night sky sometimes, but nothing like SH4. SH5 runs fine too (well, as "fine" as sh5 can run! lol).

I think its something in the SH4 engine not "getting along" with nvidia card drivers.
It doesnt make the game unplayable, but its bad enough that i have trouble seeing the target sometimes. When looking thru the periscope, The banding happens not only on the tones of the night sky, but also arround the "lens effect" of the periscope itself.
Ill take a screenshot and post it here.
I agree as well. I think its something in the engine, maybe light rendering related. I have other games with space or water and its usually a consistent, transitioned color. But like you say it may be something a driver would fix I just don't know. If I find a photo upload site I like(haven't used one in years)I'll post a screen capture too.
