The reason for that one I think is pretty simple - it is much more ghosty there than it is in normal gameplay. There it is TAA acting on a flat image (the computer monitor is just a flat image) without motion vectors, so it is ghosting the entire time since it cannot at all compensate without proper information of what is moving.
There's nothing wrong with it. Unfortunately it just looks like this is the color correction choice they made for that dark hallway somewhere in their post processing pipeline. It's intentional. I'm not really sure why they chose it, but they did.
That explains why it's the worst example, good to know! I've had some examples of it happening in in-game cutscenes really badly almost as if it's a glitch. I wasn't able to replicate it.
Did you use the recommended settings?
Okay, I think I know why people are complaining that the game looks "washed out" after seeing these screenshots - you left the display settings on the defaults!
Has anyone figured out a way to stop the timer using Cheat Engine yet?
Windows Defender blocks the trainer, and it looks like it's going to request Admin permissions too, so there's no way I will run it on my system. Manually resetting the demo (deleting the saves and resetting the achievements) is getting tiring.

You must calibrate the display settings for this game!
I will add that having examined the calibration settings more in-depth, I actually think that Rec. 709 profile is useful in this game. If I recall correctly, RE7 did not have the max/min brightness settings, which are critical for this.
Default settings:
Calibrated sRGB settings:
Calibrated Rec.709 settings:
Note: you absolutely must leave the "film noise" setting enabled to prevent posterization/banding in the shadows.
I brightened up the shadows in the Rec. 709 screenshot with the setting on/off for comparison:
You also have to set the minimum brightness one step lower than it requests, so that the pattern disappears or else the brightness calibration will not work correctly.
The settings used for sRGB are:
The settings used for Rec. 709 are:
- Maximum Brightness: 1 below the maximum
- Minimum Brightness: The lowest setting
- Brightness: -6 from center (5th marking from the left)
- Maximum Brightness: 1 below the maximum
- Minimum Brightness: The lowest setting
- Brightness: 1 left of center (10th marking from the left)
Damn, you`re right.
If you actually brightened up the image to the same degree that I have there (it's the camera from the lower-right corner of the image), I'm sure it would be just the same.
No, it doesn't and it doesn't.
It's the one that was posted in this topic.

I'm not about to bypass Defender and give it Admin permissions just to avoid manually resetting the timer. That's why I wondered if anyone had figured out a bypass with Cheat Engine.

Yeah, same...

Ok weird, mine was after or rather during the door animation... and like I said last time it was just 59fps, which is still an acceptable fluctuation and much better than the ~55 I got the first time
Strange, the one that you PMed me has the same CRC but does not trigger Defender. The only thing that appears to be different is the name.
Thanks, but at this point, I think I have exhausted everything there is to see in the demo (at least which is of interest to me) so it doesn't really matter now.
I'm glad that it helped. The game looks much better with the vignetting disabled.Dude, thank you SO MUCH, I just tried out your settings using Rec. 709 and looks much better.
BTW, there is a way to disable the, in my opinion, too aggressive vignetting effect. You must edit the exe with a hexadecimal editor or using another trainer.

I mean this isn't unique to RE2? Pretty much every game has this issue without TAA. Have you played Alien Isolation lately? Or any game with wet or shiny surfaces?
I don't understand these complaints anyway tbh, the game looks wonderful, really good, yet people seem to mess around with stuff and then complain it doesn't look right?
The options are there to be adjusted. TAA is an imperfect solution and the specular shimmering in this game is on a whole other level. I should be able ro voice my thoughts on this without it being called nagging or somehow going to push for a downgrade.
Like, even assuming the default settings are perfect, people will still have to change stuff because not all screens/TVs are the same, this is a very strange thing to complain about!
The Pro runs very disappointingly at the moment. Its wavinging between 50-60fps pretty much all the time.
I found that the first time I launched the game it displayed a completely white square no matter what I did, until I got into the level itself and then adjusted it via the options menu. Now it seems to work every time.
I reinstalled RE7 today, and its brightness adjustment is just as bad as I remembered. I see no reason to use anything other than sRGB in it, while I actually quite like the image from Rec. 709 in RE2 after calibration.
Yeah, I mean they even warn you to not to change the settings or to expect glitches etc in the game's description
I have a request, since you know how to work the Hex editing. Can you remove the sharpening filter they put over the game? (it's really apparent with TAA off)Dude, thank you SO MUCH, I just tried out your settings using Rec. 709 and looks much better.
