EQ "brightens" my desktop

[nilbog]

If you use WinEQ, this is not that big of a deal. When loaded, you get the same brightness issue. Closing WinEQ resets it.

I run EQ through Wine on Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit with an Nvidia GTX 660. While running EQ, the colors are off a bit, but before starting EQ and after the application terminates, my colors are/return to normal. I just live with it.

OMGosh! No one has posted the jerry-rigged solution?? I kinda like the brightness, but just open up another eqwindow and gamma goes back to right . I do this about half the time, Im colorblind, so i dont notice it that much lol . Yah u may see me in a pink or purple shirt and not be aware of it, but I have good nightvision!


Open another EQ window to Loginscreen or EULA , and problem solved, kinda

EQ brightens my day too

For anyone having this problem in the future I figured out a solution.
Using an NVidia video card -> For me, there is an option in the Nvidia control panel.
Under Display, Adjust desktop color settings
2. Choose how color is set.
make sure this is set to Use NVIDIA settings (for both monitors if you have two)
It seems everquest likes to override the color settings and change your desktop as well.

Dude you are a life saver
