So there is a definite difference between Odyssey and Horizons with the same matrix set.
<MatrixRed> 0.72, 0.81, 0.98 </MatrixRed>
<MatrixGreen> 0.3, 1.02, 0.05 </MatrixGreen>
<MatrixBlue> 0.93, -0.03, .03 </MatrixBlue>

Horizons

Odyssey

From my point of view, it appears that the red saturation is diminished in Odyssey for the same matrix set.

Tough to say for me offhand, as the color lighting in Odyssey seems off for most things anyway, but thanks for bringing this up all the same, and something to keep in mind. I'm holding out for the release version of Odyssey though, i.e., after the console patch backports, before bothering with it too much.

It's not "properly" though is it, because in you can't actually set everything how you want, just sections of it.

It's in reference to other ways to change the HUD colors using other files in practice (which were commonly done at the time this thread was made), not hypothetically.

I did a quick and nasty illustration of a matrix that I use showing good results for Oddity - in the noob's guides sub-sub-folder.

OK So there is definitely something funky going on in Odyssey. I pumped up the red relative to my previous matrix trying to address the issue.

But even within Odyssey I am getting different expressions of my personal portrait.
This one is at the top level of the station menu.

This one is on the mission panel of the station menu from within the ship.

This one is on the on foot lobby terminal of the station.

I think there is more voodoo to the story than there was before.
