Originally created by @anasteraceae on GitHub (Sep 16, 2024).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/shadps4-emu/shadPS4/issues/938

While taking screenshots for my lighting mod, I made the discovery that reducing the resolution of Bloodborne using a patch fixes the issue with overexposed lights from sfx and world lighting. Unsure if this is helpful, but thought I'd note it in case it helps in any way with the emulator.

For reference, some screenshots:

Base PS4:
HD_Base

Emulated:
Comp

Also, as an addendum, when trying to fix this issue by reducing light intensity, a general modifier of 25-30x less bright at 720p was the closest I could get to retail Bloodborne.

Here is the file for testing purposes (rename to .xml)
Bloodborne.txt

But to say I authored them is a stretch, you can just take one of the existing patches:

    <Metadata Title="Bloodborne" Name="Resolution Patch (144p)" Author="Aster" PatchVer="1.0" AppVer="01.09" AppElf="eboot.bin" isEnabled="true">

            <Line Type="bytes" Address="0x01a452dd" Value="90"/>
        </PatchList>
    </Metadata>

And edit the first two bytes32's, the first being horizontal resolution, the second being vertical.
You will need to convert an int to byte32 to get the value you want.
