Did you inject it by hand or did you use the configurator? Do you use voice-comm overlays?
Best way is to just use the configurator:
1. Add game (this will create a SweetFX folder in the game dir - SwetFX will be enabled as long as it's there).
2. Load a ready-made setup (f.e. from darknessjw) or make your own tweaks.
3. Save settings.
4. Launch the game normally (f.e. through Steam) or through the configurator (to be able to mess with SweetFX settings on the fly).

Make sure you're not running DX10 with the XFAA injector dll files. It will only work with dx9. Patcher shouldn't crash tho.
Just to test, make sure ALL overlays are disabled.

The game looks so much better with this added. I had used this in the past with other games, definitely worth the little effort to use this.

Disable "Vibrance" and the problem will disappear. If you want more vibrant colours, use tonemap and saturation.
