I got it on one level only. I also experienced the flashlight bug on the same level so I just figured it was a bug.

Yes. I have it... dunno if its supposed to be that way or not, kinda ugly though. Only noticable in a few areas however.

The banding, to my recollection, occurs in two levels. I can't remember their names off the top of my head though.

The only and first time i saw it was right in the first few seconds of the game where i looked down the big blackh hole under the spaceship.
But that was also the only time where I was actually looking for them, I never noticed anything ingame...

EDIT: Correction: The color banding is definently VERY noticable in the last few levels :(

Oh well, i just hope ATI will fix it in the next patch, as matter of fact I think they will...

I noticed it in the game also - especially on the long ride down the lift towards the dig site. It kind of reminded me of how the fog looked in 16-bit running Quake 3:Arena on my Voodoo2 SLI cards.

Do you all have that shadowing mod the self shadowing one installed?

I'm just wondering, because when i had this installed my shadows were really wierd looking in some circumstances.

The only mod I am using is the Trent Reznor sound pack.
