Autoheaven maps are quite dark in some areas

Dear people of the Fog,

first and formost, I like the way Autoheaven looks. But the maps are very dark in some areas which makes it difficult to see certain Killers (f.e. Ghostface, Pig, Deathslinger, Hag) or Survivors with dark clothing at all.

Look at this:

Imagine trying to find someone here who's not wearing neon colors, not to mention all the Survivors who become Blendettes in this. I could even hide as Jeff with ease here.

This is one of the brighter spots but it is still quite dark.

The brightest spot I've found so far.


I guess my problem with it is not the green color, but the strong contrast. Do you see that almost everything that is not bright is almost completely dark? The brightness depends on your location on the map as well. The right side on the last picture is very bright, whereas the left is really dark.

If I'm not playing Freddy (whose Dreamworld makes everything brighter), I often have difficulties seing other people on these maps.

Maybe consider adjusting the brightness/contrast levels of these maps.


PS: This is on medium graphics.

    As someone who plays on console and don't mess with tv settings, It certainly looks dark to me too. Maybe I am comparing it to the previous one in my mind and not every map. Since some can be considered darkish too.

    I agree, autoheaven needs to be brighter.

    Example?

    Yes some maps are also quite dark, but they have a different contrast than Autoheaven.

    For me, these (for example) are also on the darker end but I don't have problems with these.

    I think it's the contrast that makes it difficult. Do you see that on these maps here the brightness gradient is a lot smoother than on Autoheaven? You can still see different colors and textures even if it is in the shadow. On Autoheaven it's just allways greenish-black.
