Don't eat pink snow?! Weird colors at Chamonix.

[peterjford]

At Chamonix there are sections of the track that appear pink. You can also seem some pink off in the distance too. Some sections of the track have some other colors too. I never noticed these colors before in GT4.

Does everyone else see this, or could my PSP have problems?

If this really is there, is this some sort of you-forgot-to-use-your-tinted-polarized-lens-in-your-helmet-and-are-getting-snow-blind effect that PD put in, or did some drunken fans have fun on the track the night before?

...what the hell kind of "fun" would produce pink snow?!

I can't remember this effect being in GT4, and seeing as I haven't got access to a GTPSP, I can't check it out. Intriguing, though.

I've got the pink snow too, and only at Chamonix. So it seems to be an in-game feature. I wonder who the culprit is.

Perhaps someone did the nasty in....Pepto-Bismol?

I'm sorry, I accidentally ran over a bunny over there. I'll clean up the mess later.

Yes, colors are weird over at Chamonix, I first thought it was the PSP, but it's only there and at exactly the same place.

You can't miss it, if you've driven this track you've seen it.

I've lapped it many times, and I have not seen it.

Edit: do you mean near the peak elevation of the course, a hardly noticeable pinkish tint just before a second gear right into a left and then right hairpin?

Wow, that's pretty interesting. I see snow like once a year, but never pink.

 

[MarcoM]

I noticed it too. I think it has to do with the way that part of the track is rendered. Maybe PD tried to much fancy colors there, because of the sun shine or something.

Anyway, if you drive fast enough, you won't notice it

I noticed this too when I was racing at Chamonix a few days ago, but I just thought that maybe it's my PSP screen getting 'burnt out' or it's my eyes getting tired. I'll check again to see if the 'pink snow' is permanent or not.

You can also see green snow on some of the corners

Edit: I found this picture and I put a dot on a section where the best place to find green and pink snow.

Yep, perfect

It seams there is Pinkish and yellowish snow all around the area pointed out on the map there... Must be some Dusk effects that didn't come out right.

Here so people can see...

It doesn't happen on my PSP-1000

Dude the buffer shots I posted, are buffer shots!!!!!

If you don't see it, your PSP screen is too scratched up, or dirty, or fogged by anti glare, etc....

It happens on the 1001.

 

[SiNiST3R]

It happens on the 1001.

It happens on all PSPs, its specific to the Game not the console.

Okay, That was a little too overboard.

 

[simpleskin]

Agreed! Logic dictates this. I also have PSP-1000 and PSPGO and GT4, all have pink snow in the same place.

Well said. I've seen it in a video.
