It may have to do with Lumen/Nanite in the Xbox Series X. As it stands now, its lighting/quality is completely downgraded all of a sudden.

before last weeks update

after last weeks update/current update


I wish this would get fixed sooner so I can see how my Islands actually look :pensive:

I had something similar on a map i made and have published but tbh i thought it was just the differences between xbox/pc i will take snips when i get back tomorrow but i noticed this months ago and it does stand out a mile and i changed the whole lighting and used the Xbox as the guinea pig sorta speak

Hi all, we recently deployed a hotfix that will allow Creative and Creative islands to run with lumen and nanite enabled. If you have recently created a Creative island or converted your legacy islands to use the new Ch5 TODM, then please double confirm your lumen and nanite settings. See the graphics settings on PC as an example:

It grey all the sudden this is what it was before and after

My map looks horrible now they messed up the lighting for my horror map its all grey now it had a warm color now its bland and grey

I’m on the Xbox Series X though, is this setting now there for us too or no? This is happening on Consoles too.
