    Hy guys,
    I really don't know if this is game end or my end so I'm not reporting it as a bug!

    Over late, perhaps a month, I'm not sure, I've noticed that my screen will suddenly change focus like I've been sprayed in the eye with an icy mist, I think I was on a cold planet when I first noticed it happening, so I guess I just figured it was a 'feature' (I have a habit of things going haywire in games I play so I tend to ignore most of them)
    However, I've recently noticed it happening in other situations and warmer climats and it makes me wonder if I've got my settings wrong or perhaps it's a weird feature/thing from Nvidia!

    I'm at a bit of a loss to be honest, but it's certainly not something I want in my game!

    Do you have the video setting depth of field enabled ? try disabling it if you have it enabled.

    Can you share a screenshot of what you are seeing ?

    Funny you should mention Depth of field, I just turned that off because I was getting a zoom effect (motion blur?) when going past a planetary ring... I never had this before (or I hadn't noticed it before), but turning it off didn't make any difference to that.

    As for the original subject 'the misty look' (totally different thing) I'll try to capure it on the screen and I might have figured a way to post a picture, I can cheakilly upload it to Nexus (I've been there for 20 years) and then post the link thing... I think!
