Over the summer, addVisualEffect has changed to produce different effects. The color change is obvious but they are now somewhat transparent, if that helps.
June-27-22-build
Sept-3-22-build
Nov.1 build shows same as Sept.3.

Re: addVisualEffect strange results
Also present in HDR test builds. Doesn't matter if my display is in HDR mode or not. I've tried 5 builds w/ 4 oxp mixes.
Can anyone reproduce this so I can exclude the possibility my PC needs a rebuild? Use either the Sept.3/22 or Nov.1/22 dev build, telescope (either 1.15 or 2) w/ 3D model on and model is backlit by planet or moon.

I'd be delighted to help out.
Alas, the only AppleMac build is that from February...

Re: addVisualEffect strange results
This seems to have changed at around the time we implemented rendering to framebuffer. Will have to check further.

Re: addVisualEffect strange results
Fixed in revision 29a2fc0. Now that we are using a 16-bit floating point framebuffer we need to remember to clamp the alpha values ourselves - it is not done automatically like it used to when we were rendering on 8-bit framebuffer.
