Glow on Bioluminescent costume missing after 11/10 update

Yesterday after the update, the game complained that the drivers for my Radeon 4850 weren't up to date, so I updated to the latest version. Although almost everything worked, I found that Bioluminescent armor pieces no longer had the glowing effect they're supposed to have, even when I switched to Ultra mode. I used AMD's express uninstall of all AMD software, then reverted to the 10.10 version of Catalyst that I was using before, but still no glow.

I think the problem might actually have started with the game client update, before I upgraded my drivers, but I'm not 100% sure. I remember seeing reddish Bioluminescence on a mannequin in Icon and thinking it looked really blah. I just didn't realize something had changed until I tried to play my own Bioluminescent character.

Everything else in the game looks fine as far as I can tell -- it's just this one costume set that's messed up. Is anyone else seeing this?

It might not be you. I haven't changed any drivers or settings and I'm not very luminescant, either.

I had the same issue, game would not launch until I updated my graphics drivers (ATI Mobility Radeon 5870). I installed the latest drivers from ATI's web site. Now bioluminescent skin and bio organic armor pieces have no glow. Everything was working fine before the 11/10 update.

No glow for me either.

Does not work for me, either (Geforce 560, no change to drivers or settings).

And it is not on the "known bugs" list yet.

I can't find the thread now, but I thought Z posted that they were aware of this issue and they were either looking into it or they had fixed it for tomorrow's patch.

Found it:
