Whenever I use the 1.2 preview or v1.2 game which is now running my graphics are colored odd and there are strange lights and glows on everything. I refuse to turn on bumpmapping or anything like that because I don't want to lag all the time.

Take a look at what everything looks like now:



It's horrible! The Kirby is discolored and my belt is GREEN and every other object has an orange tint to it.

What did you do to SL?!?!

I get a weird glow on lots of attached objects now myself.

Hmm, I'm still not seeing it, all I'm seeing is a relatively normal "highlight" where it's more yellowish near the top.

1.2 also opened up a great massive can of worms for me..

I used to run relitively smoothly post 1.2 on a Catalyst 3.1 driver, no texture banding, no corruption (even when running in 64 mb mode), just < 20 fps and crashing with many avatars around. Running on an ATI suxxors, utterly.

Now, with the 3.1's, I experiance texture corruption, changing settings doesnt fix it. I tryed the Catalyst 3.10 Omega drivers (http://www.driverheaven.net) and got slightly better fps, very little texture corruption, but less newview.exe stabibility.

:sigh:

Has anyone else noticed.... for want of a better term... clouds? Odd fuzzy areas in random areas of the game?
