Visual Glitch - Objects Near Edges separate in 3 entities in Red, Blue, Green
Objects while playing the game near top / side edges seems to split in (3) shifted single colors of the same object (blue, green, red). See below:

When I choose photo mode, the glitch (or effect) is gone:

I tried for 1 - 2 hrs for if there is a game filter or something I can click off, undo, etc. No luck. No luck checking with oracles (Google, Bing)...

Only happens in NMS. Games like BDO in Remastered mode are flawless.

Any ideas / thoughts will be greatly appreciated.

That's chromatic aberration, one of several lens effects that developers love to put in video games for no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ reason. If you disable the vignette and scanlines, it'll go away.
However, right now there's a bug that won't display those options in the settings. There's a fix for it in the experimental build, so it should be pushed to live soon.

THANK YOU. I tried for way too long to figure out what was wrong with my video card or drivers...

Thanks, Orion. I thought it was a design thing, but it also looks like a graphics card glitch. Ugly, though.

All these lens effects were originally designed to give you a feeling as if you were looking at the world through a virtual glass visor and/or a virtual display from inside your Exosuit.

There use to be a permanent coloration effect to the world as-well, a sort of slightly yellowish-orange tint. This was meant to simulate as if you were looking through a visor shielding component, as with the 24 carrot cold laminate layer they put inside an astronauts sun visor glass.

Pretty cool concepts but, i too have never like any of these "lens effect" in any vid game because usually the devs adjust the effects to be FAR less than subtle, causing me to constantly be distracted by them... a little bit goes a long way when adding certain spices to videe games.

The ability to turn off these effect use to be only available In MODS... am thankful they have been adding more and more controls to options on how the game looks and feels that can be adjusted by us.

However, i am not sure of the technical aspects (possible stability issues ?) in adding many more user controlled gfx options, but as many as possible would be cool. A couple come to mind like bloom and lens flare.

I didn't just mean these devs, I meant devs in general. Even for games where you're supposed to be looking at things with "your" eyes, they just love adding lens effects, like you're looking through a camera. They always degrade visual quality, IMO.

FYI... As Orion reco, I switched to the experimental build and disabled Vinagrette option and it is gone. And TYVM for all suggestions / comments
