In case you've noticed this since 1.13.16.0... This is the first time I've been disappointed in the sim's graphics.

Special Server Maintenance
Just when you think you have everything running some what better...
You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.
- November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
- November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
- November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
- November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.
If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.
To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.
Thank you for your support.

probably the result of ASOBO trying to fix the cloud and reflection 'graininess? granularity?' bug...the hard way
I just noticed this too - on the horizon during sunset with clouds behind the ridgeline. It's pretty bad and interesting that it was either not noticed or a (poor) trade-off ?

I had that after the last update!
Somehow during the install process the sim switched to windowed mode.
Set it back to full screen, restarted and "halo" gone.

Ok I am officially saying that I have a new respect for the asobo dev team... your report is number 93659 !! that means there has been 93658 reports before yours ( my mum and dad are proud of the education they slaved away to provide me with
). Thats a LOT of issues for the dev team to track. Sure you could see it that the product wasnt ready to ship or should have been marked and priced as early access but I choose to think of the poor fellas/fella-ettes that have to track, find, hopefully fix 93,659 issues.TBH I have updated but havent run the sim... Elite dangerous requires me to shoot lasers at things but I have never liked the post processing in MSFS. If we are trying to say it is us ( actual human beings ) flying the plane then when was the last time you saw chromatic aberration, lens flare, heavy DOF with your eyeballs. Unless i have odd eyeballs when I go shopping most of the time it doesnt look like a feature film. ( well the action does with combat roles and drifting the shopping cart around the aisles but I live a heavily scripted and action heavy life
)
The chromatic aberration can be turned off. See this thread:

Make sure both "PostProcess" sections have the Fringe line set to zero. The Multipliers don't need to be touched, just the on-off switch. As for the last time I saw chromatic aberration, well, that would be now. With thick glasses, looking through the edge of a lens is like looking through a prism.

ok - finally I feel at home with MSFS - all I had to do was open a .cfg file and save a simple edit.
just like old times. Thank You for finding this info Tom!
and did you happen to open the camera.cfg ? it is the FSX one simply copied over exactly.
CAMERA .005
Flyby View
etc..
BtW - turning off just the one in std graphics also turned off the one in the VR graphics list.
which means that when they turned it ON for the VR access, it also turned on for the rest of us and porked the silhouettes with that ghostly outline

well Here is what I see
This was recorded at 2S9 Willapa Harbor from the ramp -parking 1- and as you can see using the TOD slider the effect can get drastically obvious
but is always present.
This is egregious and should have already been corrected.
It isn't really a flight sim yet and soon, with fumbles like this, it won't even be a good screenshot generator
