My only question is , are they going to get rid of the gamma slider somehow? Are we supposed to be playing on 0% gamma?
Gamma slider does not really help human vision at all. Maybe a tiny bit, but cranking it all the way up makes the game look very bad and humans are still blind.

It does help infra/ultravison a lot more. But being able to adjust gamma is classic.

I tried this as a human and yes, it makes the game look horrible with all sorts of colors. Basically, if anyone is as old as me, and you remember when someone would run a magnet along the screen of an old TV set, that is what it kinda reminds me of.

Ah so I see . With the new files that Blankdiploma posted the real thing that helps classes with night vision is the shaders for infra and ultravision and the gamma doesnt really do much. Great!

I think Ultravision is great right now. I started a Dark Elf last night and loved it!

Infravision is a bit hit and miss. It works in most places, but in a few locations that I have already mentioned (like West Freeport Sewers) it is a tad wonky, but it is what it is.

Humans, Barbarians and Erudites are just screwed! Don't even try going into the West Freeport sewers without an infravision buff. And even then, it's difficult! A candle or fire beetle eye will not help you either.

It is pretty cool that we are talking about the in game day/night cycle though. How many other games have this sort of thing? The devs have done a great job!!
