This is just a hint, not a question. All comments are naturally welcome.
I had some medium graphic problems with the actual german version of D2ED:
The game presentation of bright areas (such as fireplaces, lamps, torches) sometimes was extreme bright.
Particular when changing to dragon form, the body of the dragon and bright location areas were much too bright. This effect was espacially strong in the flying fortress areas.
Very annoying then: the attacking wyfern, particulary their beam like attacks, often outshine the whole screen, so I couldn't see almost anything and the fights became difficult.
I tried all grafic settings in nearly all combinations, but nothing worked. I've searched the web, of course. Then I found a note that the issue may be connected with an hidden graphic option called "HDR" and there is a way to change this grafic setting manually. The file this options are stored is located at %USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Divinity 2\Profile. (Windows 8.1, location may different with other versions).
The file is named "graphicoptions.xml" and is a pure text file, you can edit it with e.g. notepad. The option of interest is UseHDR, wich is set to 1 (activated) by default. Changed it to UseHDR=0, and until then all worked fine.
Any background informations about this are welcome.
