Am I completely crazy, or did the texture used for some Linden grasses just change? I have a large field full of all types of grass, and suddenly I'm seeing one I've never seen before. It looks like hi-res clumpy overgrown lawn grass in a brighter yellowish green that really stands out. I tried different sun positions to see if it was just the lighting, but it didn't make a difference. So I went to check my underwater home where I also use Linden grasses. They have always blended in very nicely with the dark beige wet sand terrain, but now they very bright green and don't look right. I was just there on Friday doing some work on my home and never noticed the grass at all, but now it is VERY conspicuous. So I'm just wondering if I'm the only one seeing this. It's not really a bad grass texture, it just doesn't fit into some landscaping (and underwater-scaping) the way it did before.

You could try and clear your cache. Sometimes people see sand instead of grass etc., when the client cache gets mixed up.

Not sure if the grass looks different but when I edit terrain now I don't get the green texture anymore.

From: Ava Glasgow Am I completely crazy, or did the texture used for some Linden grasses just change? Answer to this question: I am completely crazy! I just remembered that I had pictures of my meadow from six weeks ago, and what do you know, there are the grasses that I could have sworn I'd never seen before. So this is just a case of me noticing for the first time something that was always there. I wish I hadn't because now my landscaping looks all wrong to me, even though it's the same as it always was. Please pardon my lameness. Now back to our regularly scheduled programming.

Ava, have you recently made any changes to monitor settings such as gamma? Sometimes subtle changes there can result in things looking slightly different in-world..

Good thought, but no. (I actually adjusted my gamma a couple of months ago, but that made things darker... like my skin tone, which is way more George Hamilton than I previously thought!)

OMG, "Jamais vu" is perfect... and sadly the story of my life these days!
