Dynamic Lighting Weird Behavior

My party recently picked up Dynamic Lighting for our campaign and it's been working for everybody except for me. Searching on Google hasn't shown me anyone else with this particular problem. It seems to be "working," in that there is a line of sight and bright/dim areas, but random spots are black and most spots are just dim (shadows are transparent), revealing the map underneath. The black spots change depending on my level of zoom. Here are some images that describe what I mean, since it's hard to explain: Below is how it looks for another player: And here is how it looks for me, at various zoom levels: Here is another example: And two more, the correct display and the incorrect: I've tried a number of things to fix it, including:  - Disabling all extensions - Trying Chrome (this was where the issue first happened), Firefox, Edge, Chromium - Trying incognito mode - Switching computers - Clearing the cache - Updating Flash - Using other people's tokens (to make sure mine wasn't set wrong) - Even creating a new account  but nothing has helped. This issue is extremely frustrating and I'm out of ideas. Has anyone seen this before or have any idea why this is happening? Thanks!

Very strange... just to confirm: you are a player in this game (not the creator or a co-gm)? Lets also grab a console log for the Devs to poke at: Could you please carefully work through the first three steps of our guide to Solving Technical Issues ? Step 1: Make sure to use the right browser Please check if these issues persist when using both Chrome and Firefox. Step 2: Ensure that there are no extensions/addons interfering with Roll20 Please disable all add-ons/extensions and anti-virus programs. Step 3: Clear your cache If none of the above succeeds, please thoroughly work through Step 4 . (Don't forget the complete Console Log!) Thank you!

Is advance fog of war being used also? I've seen something similar the few times I played around with it.

Pat S. said: Is advance fog of war being used also? I've seen something similar the few times I played around with it. Likely the cause but still interesting results with zoom which a console log would help with.
Turns out our DM did have advanced fog of war enabled as well! Turning it off fixed the problem. Thanks for your help!

Thanks for the update, it still seems like unexpected behaviour so if you'd like to pursue this further with a console log I'll leave this thread open but mark it as resolved since the original problem has now been solved. Happy rolling.
