Title: Weird gamma problem
Post by Steed on 28.07.06 at 11:55:33
Recenlty I have purchased a new CRT monitor and I noticed that Carmagedddon 2 looks extremely bright (the game uses Glide, 640x480 resolution only). This wasn't the case with my previous monitor, and I also didn't increase my voodoo gamma settings (actually I lowered it even more). The problem doesn't happen in other games, right now I tested CS 1.6 and it looks great, no problem at all. Non-glide games and desktop look fine as well. Any ideas on why this is happening with Carma 2?

I am using Voodoo3 2000 PCI + SFFT on XP Pro SP2.

Check to see if the game has an internal gamma / brightness setting.

Failing that, it might have a value in a config (CFG) file or INI file.

No, it does not (I am sure here).

Maybe the game is just naturally brighter than other games. ::)

Or maybe it's just a glitch in the gamma setting for the game. :P

Who knows? ???
