Fallout 4 loses HDR support on Series X & S with April 25th update
Post Body

I was very disappointed to see when booting up Fallout 4 post update on my Series X that native HDR is not supported. Given that now the game has been ā€œupgradedā€ to a Series X & S game, you can no longer utilize Auto HDR (which looked fantastic on Fallout 4). Iā€™m really hoping that Bethesda is able to add HDR support back.

Donā€™t know why youā€™re being downvoted. Losing Dolby Vision on this makes a big difference. Skyrim still has it so maybe itā€™ll be sorted out eventually.

Another weird thing I noticed in the vault, the first puddle when you step off the elevator, I was happy to realise I could no longer see the sky reflected in an indoor puddle. Then after installing CC content and starting over, I could see the sky in the puddle again.

Thatā€™s Reddit for you I guess.

Yeah itā€™s nice to have a good frame rate AND resolution instead of just one but that and DV would be great.

My guess is that native hdr would use more resources and they didnā€™t think it was worth it, but I know nothing about making games so that could be a bad guess.

Isnā€™t that just being pedantic? Yes it never had native hdr but before the update, the non native version was definitely an improvement imo.

Dolby vision made all the colours look really good and that doesnā€™t mean the game looks bad now, itā€™s better than before the update but it would have been even better with Dolby vision included. My guess is that wasnā€™t possible for whatever reason.

Just downloaded the latest patch and the Dolby vision logo pops up again now so I think youā€™re mistaken.

Was it not ? It had auto hdr and Iā€™m sure that used to make the dolby vision thing pop up on my screen, unless Iā€™m misremembering which is definitely possible.
