Light Bloom

[tmant321]

The light bloom in this game is kind of absurd in some locations, particularly on the light-up skins for the ships. It looks like the ship is surrounded by a cloud of dust with the amount of bloom. When I play a game I want it to look like I am sitting there, looking at the world, not looking at it through a camera lens with bloom and flare effects. Please make the bloom functional when turned off, and not tied to the skins so as to affect their appearance when I turn bloom off. (yes, when you turn bloom off the light up skins do not work anymore, they appear white and have no color) Please fix Frontier.

Never did understand why glowing paint schemes require bloom to work.
I turn off bloom in all my games because I can't stand it. But I can't do that in
Elite Dangerous, of course, because my Vulture and Mamba would look stoopid.

While you cannot decouple these effects from bloom, if you are playing on PC, you have a great deal of control over the magnitude of bloom via the GraphicsConfiguration.xml file or it's override.
