Hello,


Ok this one might not be a bug and just me seeing things a weird way, but I find the lighting on the top of the pyramids to behave strangely.


If you look at the top part, which is supposed to be gold I suppose, it is far brighter on the left side, and darker on the right side. Which is the exact opposite of how the rest of the pyramid is lit ! It makes it look like the top part sinks into the structure instead of going up.



Hope I won't be alone in finding it strange :D


Have a good day.

Ja, ich gebe zu das sieht ein bissen komisch aus, aber das sollte wohl die Sonneneinstrahung simulieren. Auch wenn es aussieht als wäre da ein Loch. Als die Pyramiden gebaut worden sind war da laut den Geschichtsschreibern wohl eine Goldenen Kuppel in form einen Dreiecks drauf gesetzt worden. Die helle Seite soll die Sonnenseite darstellen. Was aber mit dem Schatten des  Berges  im Hintergrund nicht sein kann. Somit haben die Entwickler meiner Meinung nach das falsch dargestellt. Daher bekommt man einen falschen Eindruck davon.

I think it's by design if you look at the loading screen 

They are supposed to have a 'golden top' that reflects light differently?

Differently yes, but it should remain logical ! On your picture, the golden top and the rest of the pyramid are lighter on the same side and darker on the same side. On mine, they are inverted. The sun seems to be on the left for the top, and right for the base ! It gives the impression that the top "sinks" into the rest of the structure ;)


To add to this, when zooming out, the dark side of the top reflects a lot of light, making it a lot brighter. I really think something is wrong with the material.
