Lake reflection issues.

[Dominus41]

Hi, I came upon these weird occurrences of what seems to be misaligned reflections while going up to a pier to do some fishing.
This was discovered yesterday morning on what I believe to be version 2.0.7, however I did not have time to post it until now.

(note that the fish are also reflected above the water even though they are under it.)

Thanks for the screenshots. Were you using the native renderer or the default one, and at what internal resolution? Please attach the newest log from the logs folder and, if you still have it, a save near that pier (zip the userdata folder without userdata\cache). Then we can load the same spot and compare both renderers. The fish above the water may be the fishing game's own markers, but the shifted strip of reflected trees and the white patches on the water look wrong.

Native at 2x.

I took those screenshots during a play session using the chapter selection option, you can't save during these. I selected chapter 4 which starts you in front of the hospital, its the pier nearest to it down the road.

Thanks! Native at 2x, chapter 4, the pier nearest the hospital: that's enough to find the spot. Your log shows no resource errors, so it looks like a drawing difference in the reflection itself. Could you compare the two renderers there? Save these as .bat files in the game folder (next to deadlyprem.exe), run each one, go to the same pier through chapter 4, and take a screenshot from the same place:

test_native.bat

@echo off
cd /d "%~dp0"
start "" "%~dp0deadlyprem.exe" --dp_native_render=true --dp_native_scale=2 --dp_skip_intro=menu

test_default.bat

@echo off
cd /d "%~dp0"
start "" "%~dp0deadlyprem.exe" --dp_native_render=false --dp_skip_intro=menu

If the default renderer shows the reflection correctly, it's ours to fix in the native one. Please attach both screenshots and the log of the native run. The .bat files don't change your settings.

Yep the issue doesn't seem to appear in the default renderer. It also confirms my suspicion that in the native renderer the fish were underwater and yet we were seeing their reflections as if they were above.

Also while I'm comparing both render, there's a bit more bloom in the default one, by contrast the picture in the native is kinda plain.

(the first 3 screens are from the native test, the last 3 are from the default one)
