[2.0.77] Utility constants related to vignettes do nothing

The following utility constants:
  • main_menu_background_vignette_intensity
  • main_menu_background_vignette_sharpness
  • zoom_to_world_effect_strength
do not appear to do anything and have no effect when changed in Factorio 2.0.

In Factorio 1.1 for example, there is a vignette on the main menu screen and changing it with this code

Code: Select all

data.raw["utility-constants"].default.main_menu_background_vignette_intensity = 10
data.raw["utility-constants"].default.main_menu_background_vignette_sharpness = 1.0
causes the main menu to become significantly darker.

zoom_to_world_effect_strength is likely related to the old Map View vignette seen when zooming in.

I assume the main menu vignette has simply been removed in 2.0, but I didn't spot anything in the changelogs to confirm it.

Do you have menu simulations disabled? From looking at the code - those values are only used when the simulations are shown.

No, they are enabled. I've never seen the vignette appear on 2.0's main menu on any of the simulations.

EDIT: Here's a log, in case it's related to the graphics on my setup.
