Title: ati 9600 gamma problems
Post by: mendipbus on September 23, 2005, 04:45:43 am

Hello

Not sure if anyone else who has a ati 9600 graphics card are having problems with gamma settings?

The game  is far too dark on my system to play.

Whatever I do does not help change this.

Any ideas

Thanks

I had that problem too. But when I got a new monitor the problem disappeared.

In the mean time I came up with this solution:
You should be able to adjust your brightness levels in Display Settings -> Advanced. And you should be able to set hotkeys to change your settings in flight. Save a couple of color settings and then while running FS use the hotkeys to find a playable brigthness level...
Works in other games as well.

cheers - have tried that, but does not seem to work, unless it does not like using the F keys?

I have alt + f2 to change gamma

and also alt+f3 to change brightness

nothing happens :(

I will probably have to get another monitor :(

Yeah. That didn't work for me either if I remember correctly. Instead, use next profile and previous profile to change your presets. That should work. Thats what I meant in my prevuious post...
