Hi All,

We are looking for someone who uses AMD graphics hardware to test a fix on one of our GameGuru Classic bug fixes. Here is the issue we need testing: https://github.com/TheGameCreators/GameGuruRepo/issues/676

Much appreciated!!
GameGuru Classic will continue to be supported with bug fixes and functionality additions.

That bug could actually be useful if it were intentional Seem to remember a glow feature in FPSC.

I have an AMD CPU but an Nvidia video card, so probably can't help with testing though.

I have the Radeon RX 480 (8 GB).
The characters glow when I set the entity shader to "medium" or "highest", but it does not matter if they are placed in bright or dark areas. They look the same.
The second picture looks okay with the shader set to "lowest", even though some parts still look a bit too bright.

Yep, this is exactly what I am experiencing. I have a stock AMD--
no graphics card, just "integrated". Glowing CC.
The problem with setting GG to lowest shadows is that of course
now the shadow are gone!

A new PublicPreview build has been uploaded to Steam. Check it out and let me know if the AMD issue has been solved, thanks!

Before you test this , you should recompile all shaders in the new PP , or the fix will not work.

did you delete the .blob files before updating / restarting GG?

Shouldn't they be renewed with the update?

steam is pants, I would really encourage users to delete the .blob files manually prior to every GG update and also do a file integrity check via steam.

I have created this issue at 27 Sep 2018 at https://github.com/TheGameCreators/GameGuruRepo/issues/398
PLEASE take a look at my notebook' configurations. you can see that it is not only about AMD gpus.

i7 4700hq 2,40 ghz cpu + 16 gb ram + NVIDIA GeForce GTX850m + Latest Driver Version 445.75 + Windows 10 Pro 64 bit

i have tried this at these two notebooks with the new 2020.02.04 April Fixes update, checked the integrity of the files via steam but the issue still stands. I have also provided sample fpm files before but can gladly provide a new one if required. The shining of characters made by character creator is visible only at high and medium entitiy shader at tab tab menu of the editor and only the character's body glows not the head. If i choose Low entitiy shader the difference between body and the head disappears as it will stop shining. Could this be caused at notebook GPUs additional to AMD GPUs? Since I never had the same issue at my desktop having AMD cpu and Nvidia GPU
