Render pass in 4.2

It seems there's a problem with the render pass in MS 4.2. I hadn't seen this documented yet in the forums so thought I should post it.

Here's some screenshots of the problem. I just post the best examples and links to the others.

Looks like a glow problem. Do you have antialiasing turned on by chance?

Don't believe so, it was being out of the box or so I thought, it seems we've figured out happened while trying to recreate it a second time. Apparently texture quality got set to high while someone was messing with the options which seems to cause the problem.

I get the same problem if I change from fullscreen -> window or vice versa until TGEA is restarted.

EDIT: Which I think is an issue that has been mentioned before.

Glow appears through my stuff when I turn FSAA on. It'd be really cool for it to be fixed sometime, FSAA makes things look realllll nice.

@Jonathan - yeah, we've fixed that problem - will go out with RC1.

@Chris - yeah we should fix that.
