Btw, it makes a WORLD of difference. The image was pure CRAP before. |
Discard that.
It's not the bloom. It's instead a bug with the letterbox option messing with the screen and applying that fake AA/blur.
And the worst part is that you cannot disable it through the UI. Moving the letterbox slider to zero doesn't work, you have to open the .ini and delete the "cl_letter_box_amount" voice or reset to "default" options so that it is deleted automatically. But as you move the slider the blur gets back.
I guess I'll have to do without the letterbox if SOE doesn't notice the problem and fixes it.
