Current lighting

This really isn't acceptable. Please lighten the night back to a reasonable level. At least mobs and opponents should be easily seen.

... and please don't try to sell torches for xims instead

options->video->raise gamma

Thanks for the reply, but that is not an option. It is only the night, that is too dark, if I raise gamma it is too bright at day. I don't think it is meant to raise and lower gamma all the time through the different daytimes...

AMPZORD · 08-10-2012, 02:36 AM

well that is the only solution I know, I tried to find an intermediate value to work at night and during the day.

I know what you mean. But shouldn't it be playable as it was before the update? Why darkening the night so much?
Here's a comparison before/after the update. The lighting hasn't changed for the day, but was drastically darkened for the night. It makes no sense in a game, where you need to able to see at least your opponents and mobs at all times. Why not just restoring the light level to where it was before the update?

This has nothing to do with gamma. Terrain graphics are awfully dark and dull since the update and even more at night.

Its awful!

I increased gama, lowered object and terrain view distance to min to get a less dark background, but im still not completely happy with it.

And removed shadows of course, but i probably would have done that anyway.

Hi! We are working on this issue. The problem affect the areas with a dark terrain.

It will be fixed in the next hotfix.

Regards!
