please don't dismiss the people who have this issue TT as the game is at times unplayable for us
It's all part of the big illusion that we perpetuate on ourselves and in turn is perpetuated upon us. When we believe, we engage the illusion. When we stop believing we shatter the illusion and shatter ourselves in the process. Because we are, part of it.

I know it sounds stupid, but have you tried turning the gamma down in rene? Also try messing around with your resolution. I use 1280x1024. While I could use 1440x900 I prefer the 1280x1024. Also, I know that you said that you've turned shaders all the way down but have you actually disabled it within your client? Try that.
Failing that, I guess start posting (more)screenshots of your game.

I have already shown you three comparison screenshots, two of which are lowest settings, one of which is before and one of which is after.
I lowered the settings to the ones from the left screenshot for this one, the same happens:
and this last one is on medium-ish settings
Multiple people have told me already that it is NOT fixed by turning off shaders either, and two here have already told you.

I should say that 4.0 (at least the default install) does NOT have any "shaders" except for the fxaa shader support.
It does not have bloom (and as far as I know does not even have the code needed to support it)
As for the talk about "removing shaders.dll", that will never be possible, shaders.dll is not just for shaders, its got a lot of important code (the name shaders.dll is a historical artifact from when it did contain mostly shader code)

I should also add that the only way you could have any "shaders" running other than the fxaa shader is if you have a "shaders.ini" file or any .shd files loose in your data folder (or in mix files)
If all you have is the official TT always3.dat file (and its included default.shd file) you will not have ANY custom shaders running except the FXAA support.

I've checked with stock and 4.0 on all settings and the smoke is exactly the same on all settings, except for the white being a lot brighter
Setting 'Geometry Detail' to the lowest setting helps a lot, but it's still a bit brighter then.

i have no problem whatsoever with players using that skin on my server
i'd rather everyone saw things that way
same goes for arty screen shake; either have it 10% of what it is now or just remove it, and let visual/game effects play less of a role in determining game outcomes

If that's stock behavior, then we're not changing it. If it isn't then we should fix it. I still don't know which one is true.
It's a server.ini key. I don't know which one, but it was in the release logs for beta 5/4/3. This is still offtopic, so create a new one if you want to say more on this.

ok, guys, we really need to know (with proof in the form of videos) if there really IS a difference between 4.0 and stock renegade (not 4.0 and 3.4.4, 4.0 and STOCK)
If that information isn't provided, we will be unable to do anything to make this better.
