Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity Original Sin - Beta Surfaces visual appearance

Anyone else finds puddles and pools of still water to be worse looking than sea water or streams? It looks more like quicksilver than actual water.
Also, it's nice that cloud surfaces like smoke, poison etc. are more visible with new patch, but now they also look worse than before, imho.
Is there still a chance to tweak their appearances before release?

I actually asked a friend I was playing co-op with yesterday to describe the steam effect we were near, basically to see if it was the same steam effect I was seeing, because the visuals just made me assume it was a placeholder or bug. There was also some nasty z-fighting going on the last time I saw it. What was wrong with the old effect?

I agree with this. It was pretty hard to see the steam clouds before, but the effect does look worse now. It's not a huge deal and I know you're busy, but a tweaked appearance would be better.

In tutorial I put out the fire with the water barrels and steam cloud never disappeared.

I also agree with everyone else that the new cloud textures look out of place. Hopefully the image can be sharpened before release.

Agreed, go back to the old if anything!

Hmm, I just wonder if poison cloud is also healing the characters with 100+ poison resistance or zombie perk?
