So dark?

Spradle22 · #1 02-28-2015, 06:11 AM

Hi, I am wondering if perhaps something is wrong here...
It seems that everywhere I go, it is ALWAYS night, and ALWAYS very dark. Changing my gamma does nothing. I am a half elf, and I think I am supposed to have night vision, yet in zones like crushbone, it is hard for me to see very well. My screen brightness is all the way up as well. I have never seen it be day time in crushbone, I havent tried much other zones.

I just Made a human. Literally cannot see a thing.
Note: I am playing on a mac via parallels.

Maybe you should play a dark elf. But ona serious note maybe re install. You might be missing a file or two.

Haven't heard of this issue hmm. Sometimes you have to relog for gamma change to work; that sucks though. Hopefully you can get it resolved.

Well, there's also the issue that you (usually) need to be in full-screen mode for the gamma to make a difference.

Some of the most fun I had was running at level 5 as a druid with my buddie from Qeynos to Freeport in the dark period....took us a few hours lol!

When I played on a Mac (it was free what can I say) adjusting in game gamma did nothing, you needed a seperate app to adjust the gamma. Can't remember what it was called but searching "gamma" in the app store will probably help. Yes I remember it being quite dark! I was using wineskin in windowed mode.
