darkness/lightness changing on connect

[Isoroku]

after copying the new files into the EQ directory when i enter the server my game stays really dark, it used to when i connected to the server my game would brighten up to acceptable levels.

I kinda assumed it was my graphics card being funky but with this change it instantly stopped correcting itself.

any idea's?

I'm 100% for classic darkness, but this is a really crude imitation of it. IMO, leave it out until you get get it not affecting the UI, or at least non-EQ windows. It makes it doing anything else on my computer suck if p99 is running.

I totally agree.

Yeah, this was an embarrassingly naive hack.

Infravision and ultravision do nothing.

Also yea, as others have stated.. in classic, it didnt effect the UI or other windows apps.
