Steps to Reproduce
- Equip any add-on/perk that enables seeing a gen's progress via Aura
- Load into a match whether online or in private lobbies
- Attempt use of said add-on/perk via mentioned way
- Notice generators staying a solid white color despite progress
- Cry in wasted Iridescent Add-on
- Basic Fix: Change Generator Aura color in the "beta" section of your settings to anything other than a shade of white.
Explanation
Generator Aura Progression not showing when using perks/add-ons that should be displaying progression via intensity.
Currently affected by this that I know of/have experienced due to gameplay:
- Legion's Iridescent Add-on "Fuming Mix-tape"
- Wraith's Iridescent Add-on "All Seeing - Spirit"
- Hex: Hive Mind
Considering it's involvement in both "Eerie" add-ons, the most elusive and game-changing add-ons, as well as an entire perk it effectively negates both entire builds and possibly killer gameplay loops.
I've been informed and have confirmed that the issue is regarding the "default aura" of generators being set to white. Since the intensity of the aura fades from white to the selected color in your setting for a generator's aura and the default selection is white it then fades from white to white. Changing the aura setting in the "beta" tab of your settings will solve the issue.
Tl;Dr BHVR needs to change the default generator aura to a color other than white.
