Not so much of a bug, but it's the most relevant place to post it. After a new hard drive and fresh install my nwn has only the required things for efu. I went and installed all the suggested overrides too. I am now noticing however that Watchers' armor is green and super shiny instead of the grey it used to be!

I removed all the color overrides and I removed the metal texture override. All that I should be having now is spells, domains, portraits, sound, feats, and all the music overrides however they are still shiny and green.

Does anyone know why?

I discovered it! By disabling 'environment mapping on creatures' it got rid of the funky colors.

New monitor? Watcher Armor's always been green!

With mapping turned on, the shiny green






With mapping turned off, the watcher greys










Which is meant to be real and which is a dirty filthy imposter?

I've always seen them as Green and seeing them that light grey is weird.

WriterX

Always saw them in shiny green... Now I am wondering whether that was not meant to be the way.

Tala

Not sure if I've seen them as green, probably because it's a weak shade of green or I didn't pay attention, but I've never seen them so grey and boring like the second one.

Looking at this though, I'd say they're supposed to be the "shiny" ones (though yeah, I have no idea why they are slightly more green in your screenie)

This is the perfect, ambiguous disguise color a thief could wish for.

Graphical drivers and shaders. This is not related to efu or nwn. Well it is nwn and how they made textures and shading and light maps, but how those are rendered is up to your machine fully.
