Hood Coordinator Press Release Notice:
Due to the alarmingly low drops of gold ore in Dublin and the consequently painful mining, the lights in the bar were dimmed to reflect the melancholic mood of the miners. Also, as almost no IMG| miners play in Dublin any longer, elecricity can be saved, so the reactors' energy production of Hood has been reduced to 10 %.

I may not have been paying specific attention, but I didn't notice this personally the other day when I was in the Hood's bar looking for brides a few times, perhaps it's a hardware issue with your video card, or maybe something with the bloom mod (that I might add, I don't use)...

It's just the shadiness of the place rubbing off on it...
I'll look into it, but don't remember changing anything in the Hood bar over the last patches... other then a few rumors, but that wouldn't affect lighting.

This is "normal" lighting. Every base in Dublin except for the Hood has this light level

BTW, it just gets darker with bloom turned off

I've heard of sailors having a girl in every port, but this is the first I've heard of a soldier wanting to marry multiple women from the same bar! I think you better keep your helmet on, because I think your head is likely to be the target of a few rolling pins and frying pans! In conclusion, I have to say good luck with that and that's the Spirit!

Hood is not a GC base.
That said, lighting looks about normal. I suppose we could turn it up a little eventually, but that's low prio since it'll probably involve messing with the THN files for those bases. Which is a pain to do.
