Two Temp Gamma Fixes

[Asmadi]

The first is going into your Catalyst or nVidia control panel for the graphics card. Look under '3D Applications' or something similar. Setup a profile for the EQ.exe under 'Application Settings' and set the Gamma higher.

[quote]intel hd cards go to intel graphics and media control panel and make sure your in advanced mode. Select color enhancement under display, and set gamma to like 1.1. make sure you click apply and then zone to make sure it stuck. You have to reset the gamma after your done on p99 but at least you can see now while playing the game.[/quo

In EQclient, changing Gamma to 50 does nothing. 20 is the maximum the game understands.

Have you tried it? I tested it on my end and it worked for me. *shrug* Rivervale brightened up at 50 and was darker at 20. Could have been because of the day cycle in the game.

Have you tried it? I tested it 2x on my end and it worked for me. *shrug* Rivervale brightened up at 50 and looked darker at 20.
Yes, I've tried it.

The game takes the Gamma value in the EQclient and multiplies it by 5. So a 20 in client is the same as 100 in the Options menu. There is no higher.

Here's a link to a small command line utility (http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=96370919615534940086)for Windows that uses SetDeviceGammaRamp() to adjust the brightness level of the display. Not all devices support this method but it seems to work well on Windows 7/8.

SetGamma v0.01

Purpose:
Sets the gamma level for the display.

Usage:
SetGamma <intensity level>

Where <intensity level> is number between 0 and 255.
Lower values are darker and higher values are brighter.
A value of 128 will return the display to the default brightness

Example:
SetGamma 224

This little desktop app not only adjusts screen settings throughout the day based on geographic location but it also happens to fix the in game gamma issue on its own. Give it a try.

It's also great for neckbearing late at night. I disabled it once at 3am by mistake and I was nearly blinded.

Eye strain bye-bye!
