Metal renderer pink trees (MacOS)

[Bwide]

i'm playing on macOS with the m1 max chip, i get perfect performance with quality settings on max, but trees are solid pink, reflections on things like glass jars are weird and zombies are super dark, is there any specific setting maybe that i can turn off? is this a known bug? i can play using openGL but i don't get the same level of performance with it

Before messing with anything else validate your game files first. Pink textures usually mean a texture is missing and validating might fix that issue, it could also fix the other graphics issues if other files are corrupt or missing. If that doesn't work then updating your drivers is also a good idea, make sure your drivers installed properly and perhaps perform a clean re-install of your graphics drivers if you can. Usually you can just search clean reinstall and your card manufacturer on google to find out how to do a clean re-install for your system/software.

If those two things don't work it's time to start adjusting your graphics settings. You may have to change one thing at a time by one increment at a time and then see what that does. You may also have to exit and re-start the game for some changes to properly take effect. I'd start with anything to do with textures, shadows, and anything affecting reflections since those are the things that aren't displaying properly.

Some of the other posts I've read about this issue say it could be older installs causing issues so you might need to fully wipe the game from your system (back up your saves/worlds/characters if you can) and do a clean re-install of the game - search online if you don't know how, there are several posts about it. There's even a clean option in the 7 Days to Die launcher that might help.

If I remember correctly, they are different options when on Mac. I think Vulkan might be one of them though.

Re: Original topic.....
Have you been using the 7d2d launcher.exe--tools--clean option whenever you change to a different version or update to whichever version you are running now? Need to be doing that so you do not end up with corrupt data.

So, graphic anomalies sometimes are the gpu driver being corrupted. Have you done a clean install of the latest driver for you graphics? Clean install meaning you downloaded latest one, uninstalled one being used and install newest one. Do NOT simply run the install of the newest one while the old one is still installed....that leads to corrupted driver files.
