I took a look at the 1997 Nissan GTR V-Spec and your point is valid about the brake light colors being incorrect when compared to a factory car. I'm seeing the same yellow-with-orange-halo brake lights, but they don't glow annoyingly bright as shown in your screenshot. I also found the following Youtube video of the same car in FM3 as a reference, and there's clearly an inconsistency with the taillights in FM7:
1997 Nissan GTR V-Spec in Forza Motorsport 3Personally I'm not bothered by the incorrect taillight colors. People modify their cars in various ways IRL, so that's one way to look at it. However, I'd be distracted if the taillights I saw in the game glowed as bright as what you're seeing on your screen. Since I'm not seeing that happen, it would be difficult for T10 to justify a wide-sweeping change to brake light intensity based on one user's experience.
Another curious thing is that your photo is based on FM7's Camera Mode. Since you're having issues with brake light intensities on a
live system, you shouldn't have been able to capture that "glowing effect" on file unless it were something that was hard-coded. In other words, I went into Camera Mode and could not reproduce that hazy, particulate glow that you've posted in your photo no matter what adjustments that I made to camera settings. Did you modify the original FM7 photo with a photo editor to show us a dramatic effect of what you're seeing on screen or is that the actual file that was outputted by FM7? If you modified the original photo, then it would probably be more helpful to take a photo of your TV screen/monitor using an actual camera to show us the problem. If you didn't modify the original photo, then it's possible that your video drivers might have some post-processing effects running in the background, and if FM7's Camera Mode simply takes a frame from the video buffer, then that could explain why the effect is being written to file. One last thing is that FM7 could have some video enhancement settings that you might be able to adjust if you're playing the game on a PC. I'm running FM7 from a console and I don't recall there being any settings that can simulate that glow effect. If you have access to some of those controls, then I'd look there to see if you can get rid of the excessive glow from the taillights. Aside from that, the only thing that I can confirm with you at this point is the colors of the brake lights.
Anyhow, it might be useful to list your hardware specifications and model of your monitor so that T10 has some real world data of how the game looks outside of their test systems when developing FM8. You might also be able to get some feedback from others with similar hardware who are having a completely different experience than you -- and that could be a hint as to a hardware issue. (One thing that comes to mind is that I once had a defective video cable that affected the way things looked on one of my computers. However, I would find it extremely peculiar if a defective video cable would be so specific as to affect the intensity of brake light glow in a video game for a select number of cars. But you never know.)
