I didn't know where to put this question on the forum but I was wondering why in the FBS is the development room darker than in the original game?

It shouldn't be. Do you have a screenshot?

The rendering engine library was upgraded many major builds. The newer versions have a lot of features and seems to be less bug fixing as they removed a lot of hack solutions for older rendering APIs. So, it might be an upstream issue for your GPU/Driver/OS combo.

But a screen shot will help me see what's going on.

Here's a screenshot from my game. It might just be darker because of some settings I have on. But the lighting here is much dark than in the 2.0 version. The car body also has a very reflective and bright effect around it that it makes it stand out from the rest of the room

Likely changes to the rendering engine + shader changes for the body designer mk2. I'll be waiting to see if we can get new artwork before I make any adjustments, for the new artwork is significantly more important for the future of the designer system.

What all new vehicle artwork do you have planned?

I don't plan for anything. The FBS is all contributor funded.

Currently funded but incomplete bounties can be found here: https://www.ventdev.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?fid=53
