is there anything wrong with tail lights of the car
i had the ultimate version on xbox and since they released a new expansion wanted to try it again, downloaded the game, started benchmark (i replaced my monitor since i last played) and noticed one thing; tail lights seem to be weird. what do you guys think?

especially if you check the blue car and corners/edges of the lights on main car they seem to be extremely bright, blurry and spilling colors over, are they? am i looking into it too much or is this the thing?

i first tried with fsr ultra quality, then thought smaa is the reason, disabled it, still same, disabled fsr, still same. any suggestions?

idk i don't see anything wrong
Acura's model might not be that detailed to begin with hence its brake lights being too bright (the game also lowers car model quality with distance so it might be a reason as well)

one note: the devs fudged side reflectors on nearly every car and gave them illum textures, aka for some reason once the lights turn on, side reflectors "turn on" too, as if they have light bulbs in them which is not how reflectors work.

Also do you have any other AA enabled in-game?

Game looks great on my end, not only it was awarded for iots graphics by users on Steam but everyone is pretty much saying this game is a looker.

I can throw a ton of crap at this game but with a decent rig it looks amazing.

ye idk how it even won that award.
but i guess it's a subjective matter.

i'm actually annoyed by graphics
FH4 for me looked amazing while playing, yet i never could capture a shot that i liked.
FH5 doesn't excite me in looks department like FH4 does... but it gives me better opportunities at capturing a shot that i like.

What i find funny is that HW expansion looks amazing with FH5 lighting, unlike main map that looks good in 2 seasons, and just meh the rest.

ou can argue that the jump from Fh3 to FH4 was bigger in terms of graphical fidelity than the leap from FH4 to FH5.

Still the game does look amazing and if you ever lived in a tropical / sub-tropical country you would realize that the lighting and seasons are actually on point, which is quite an achievement in my book.

That said, save for the cars themselves and the Lego expansion that looked great for what it is I never was excited by FH4 decorum, FH5 on the other hand is way more varied and represents a place I woudl go to way more than boring UK if I had the choice between the two.
