darkness/lightness changing on connect

Same here with v35. Very dark.

i think i'm done with this server. not fighting with "gamma" bs, 4 years was a good run though

I think its a server thing.... using my P99 files I logged into a different server, was bright as beans.

Same problem, gamma is at full on my box ( 2 yr old computer) still to dark to see. I played from release of live eq and don't ever remember it like this. If you have to crank your gamma to maximum to see at all there is something terribly wrong, not classic at all.

PS the darkness was fucked with first patch post the forced Velious beta test , still fucked after 2nd patch that was supposed to fix it.

Cranking gamma was indeed classic. It was so classic that it's actually my only gripe with the gamma changes - making everything washed out and shitty at the expense of seeing was classic!

Yeah exactly, maxing my gamma now puts the game slightly darker than it was at 21% gamma prior to this change. That is just not classic.

I don't understand why this change was made when things like this usually require such a high burden of proof to be implemented. Where is the evidence that classic EQ ever looked this way?

Again I support the intent behind this change but it's doing more harm than good in it's current state. Vision spells still don't function at all like they did in classic, the game is just dark as hell now and so is anything else you're doing on your computer.

note I said to Maximum when I played on live at release I was a grown man already working a full time job which afforded me a nice computer at the time. I never had to run gamma a maximum... this is not classic at all
