HOW-TO: Remove blue fog

[luvstospewge]

Hey Guys,
After spending a few hours tinkering with the game files, I found a place to disable the annoying blue fog.

Hope this helps some people!

UPDATE:
Seems to have increased performance for me. The stuttering that I would get when running around seems to have gone.
Also confirmed to last through level transitions.

For me blue becomes kind of green...

It's apparently an intended effect by the developers since they wrote that on their own forum. So I'm hesitant to try this since it might break something else.

I agree it's an intended effect by the developers, and most probably intended to fit in with a specific 'look and feel' they were heading for with AMFP; however looking over the files in TDD most levels had fog disabled.

So if you're looking for the same 'look and feel' as TDD then disabling the fog is a good way to start.

I think this "intentional blue" ruins the " I'm alone in the dark" feeling, Alone in the blue.. :(

I have to agree, the blue with added blue is really off putting.
I know they said it is intentional & varies in different areas, but have they actually said why it is in at all?

I haven't finished the game yet but I'm about an hour in and I've gotten used to it. It only seems to be present in areas that are 'safe', where memories of past events are unfolding. I wouldn't describe it as a colour palette though so I can't really see why TCR felt the need to overlay it over the sreen. (edit - what I mean to say is it really is apparently just an overlay, the rest of the enviroments don't exactly follow a theme of cool colours when it is active)

It really bothered me initially, and for about an hour once it was installed I was faffing around with gamma and brightness etc, assuming I had a hardware bug. But I found that if you really want to get rid of it, open your monitor display settings and adjust the colour sliders so the blue is around 40% lower than red and green. It removes the tint but once the game decides the tint is no longer necessary you will be left with a rather yellow-y looking game :D
