BC 7.2.7
Forge 11.15.1.1902

Pipes look alot brighter (and imo worse) in the 7.2.X builds compared to the 7.1.X builds.
Images for comparison: http://imgur.com/a/Mgq3g. They are all taken looking west.

I believe this is unintended so I believe it is a bug, if it is intended it can be closed.

i think this is due to the lighting changes in the redering code, they improved the lighting for partialy seethrough models like these pipes alot

This took a while to figure out what was happening, but after I implemented the 8.0.x pipe model baker it became obvious: I didn't apply face-darkening to the pipes! Unfortunately this won't be fixed in 7.2.x, but it is fixed for 8.0.x. Which is nice.

(Edit for comparison - 1.7.10 is lower left corner, 1.8.9 is upper left corner and 1.10.2 is the right hand side)
