Inconsistent lighting effect on character
Not that I’ve noticed, have any screenshots?
Well, if you’re in wvw a lot, everything is pretty much red all the time now anyway. Spent 10g for a cool black? Too bad.

By red I assume you mean invisible?
If you have shaders setting on high, it will cast a constant “backlight” on your character that sorta throws off the colors of your clothes because the light is a whiteish/blue hue. This backlight is independent of any actual light sources in the environment.

No, I mean literally red, dark red. Everyone is red all the time in WvW – at least for me! It started a couple patches back. When I asked about it ingame, I was told it was a measure to cut down on lag or some such crap. I’ve never actually bothered to go looking for an official AN announcement on it, but I assume it’s out there somewhere. But maybe it’s really just a bug and people have been yanking my chain.

Show us a screenshot, then we can tell you if it’s normal or not.

Umm, how about you just port to one of the BG’s and try it out?
Are you saying you see all the different dye colors in WvW? Because I can tell you that last night I stood by one of the torches in the starting area of a BG and tried out various dyes just to make sure I wasn’t losing my mind. But even though I could see the changes in the preview pane, after the colors were actually applied there was absolutely no difference in how I looked in the BG. Even after I applied a dye that made me look solid white (at least in preview), in the BG I still looked that same dark red.
I have no idea, really, but does that have anything to do with the newer option: ‘see all team colors’ or some such? It was added a couple of patches ago.
Yes, it’s a big turnoff for me.
Look at my Warrior…
Day time || Night time
How about trying to screenshot at other places during day? Other than some foggy areas and Orr maps, the daylight should be consistent.

Ha! Thanks! You were absolutely right. I don’t know if AN set the Team Colors to ‘Everyone’ by default or if I reset it for some reason and then forgot all about it, but yeah, it was set to everyone, which apparently makes everyone mirror whatever the wvw server color happens to be. So thanks for finally clearing that up for me!
colors look different under different light if you have different armor pieces (not from the same set). it bothers me. sometimes they look like the same color, sometimes they don’t to the point it is really noticeable. they look like two different colors.
You are most welcome, Ghanto

your issue would be that you have team colors on… go into settings and turn it off on “yourself” or “all”
