I could get over the darkness w/e but playing in windowed mode with a 2nd monitor the gamma fix messes with DESKTOP gamma not just EQ.

What are some work arounds for this gamma issue.

F.lux (haven't used)

Altering your brightness on your graphics card settings... I adjust brightness in Nvidia Control Panel and it does not affect anything.

Opening a 2nd EQ window at server select will brighten to about 50% of what it was.

Anyone else got some good ideas?

Flux is what i have been using for almost a year (downloaded it because someone suggested it helped your eyes) And sure enough it definatly was worth it.. Trust me read the website it does what it says it does.

WinEQ2

turn Gamma Lock ON

change your EQ path to the correct EQ folder

Click WinEQ2.0 Default, load up EQ through wineq (not your desktop EQ icon)


voila, never need to redo it when zoning either.

excellent, I use WinEQ2 and this worked well.

It didn't brighten EQ up much but it left the desktop alone.

It's funny, not one week ago I was sitting playing EQ and thinking:

You know what this game has too much of? Seeing stuff.

damn that darkness shit sucked haha, i really hope they stop that shit, theres a million ways around it but it just makes it annoying playing the game having to do those things cause it fucks your gamma up in everything else except everquest.

Not the case. Gamma is still very dark.

I re-patched and the gamma fix is reverted to how it was pre-patch, confirmed working for me.

That did work. And then I /camp-ed without sitting and was promptly crashed.
