Everything Looks Black and White

Aylin Moonshadow
At some locations most of the content looks black and white unless you set Refection Coverage to none.
The attached pictures were taken at http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Alope/252/195/21 facing east. The one looking black and white, Reflection Coverage set to full scene, the normal looking image set to none.

Title: Scene turns black and white on Mac M2
Details: Bug originally reported by Frankk Parisi at https://feedback.secondlife.com/admin/feedback/bug-reports/p/everything-looks-black-and-white?boards=bug-reports
Screen white outs as before - https://gyazo.com/e82c92c73ca886756610f79e232afbe7 : occurs within a few minutes of changing reflection coverage from manual to full scene (or manual to Manual and Terrain)

Unfortunately problem still exists in 7.1.10.10800445603 (Delta FPS) for me at location below (and a few others)

(also tested at other locations where this was previously a problem : same result - no change).
Mac M2 Max 64GB RAM, OSX 14.6.1 (Sonoma)
Lindens/Techs have visited site this morning and repro'd on Mac M2. I'm presuming they will update this bug and/or https://github.com/secondlife/viewer/issues/1852
Thanks

There is a fix for this bug in the newest Second Life RC, DeltaFPS - 7.1.10.10708851543, available on https://releasenotes.secondlife.com/viewer.html
If anyone still sees this black & white bug on this new viewer, please add the location in a comment.

This bug is still being worked on.

Dan Linden Found another one, first I've seen in ages!:
If I leave my avatar looking slightly east of south it kicks in immediately on login. This occurs on both the latest Delta FPS and Firestorm Beta viewers with reflection coverage on full scene.

My 'work around' has failed. When will this be looked into as a REAL issue and not just 'tracked' ?

Checking for any updates to this issue.

Another update after trying to find a 'work around' - adding a giant reflection probe has lessened the issue - though be advised, it is not a fix for the bug. Attached shot:

I'd like to add to this problem - it has been since day one of the update.
This issue is not getting any real movement other than 'how to bandaid' by changing reflection coverage.
For a public sim, it's basically dead now thanks to this assaulting visitors when they land. Have updated greeter to include directions, though many do not follow local, or care to change their settings for ONE sim.
Come on guys.
