im jus tryin to ply gem…
This MUST be a joke. Like - “Hmm increase the gamma. If that doesn’t help, change your monitor. If you STILL WANT better brightness, maybe like - uhmmmm modify the games glsl fragment shader to render the image to the screen?.. yeah, do that.”
There is no way this is meant seriously… but if it is, i do enjoy that…
If somebody is playing a game with the gamma set to 3 and brightness at 120%, and they’re still finding it too dark, they need to check if their monitor is actually turned on.
it is funi how they say that changing the monitors settings is a good option…
Sadly it really is dark in the game at night. Like as in - u can only see the pars of models which are facing upwards, and are thus illuminated by the moon.
Try applying the Adobe RGB colour profile to your screen. It might help in scenarios like this.
But yeah I’m not familiar with the game. But it sounds like they gotta refactor their drawing routines to be adjustable.
