Devices

Summary

Changing the Global Illumination setting under Graphics Quality will reset CH5 day sequences, also subsequently ignoring any other value changes from day sequence devices unless level is reloaded.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. change time of day manager to ch5 day sequence
  2. add Day Sequence device to level
  3. change settings on the device (ie. disable the volumetric clouds by ticking Clouds, change fog colour/density)
  4. in the graphics settings menu, change global illumination quality

Expected Result

none - the day sequence should keep the modified values set by the day sequence device

Observed Result

day sequence resets to default

Platform(s)

windows

Additional Notes

haven’t tested under a private code/published map (or other platforms). ch4 day sequence doesn’t appear to be affected by this bug.
