Could not set gamma
#1
I've had this problem for as long as i can remember, although when i first installed AC i don't think i had this issue.

here is my startup

Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\AssaultCube_v1.1.0.4>bin_win32\ac_client.exe --home="?MYD OCUMENTS?\AssaultCube_v1.1" --init Using home directory: C:\Users\Home\Documents\AssaultCube_v1.1 current locale: English_United States.1252 init: sdl init: net init: world init: video: sdl init: video: mode init: video: misc init: gl Renderer: GeForce 310/PCI/SSE2 (NVIDIA Corporation) Driver: 3.3.0 init: console init: sound Audio devices: Sound: Generic Software / Software (Creative Labs Inc.) Driver: 1.1 init: cfg Could not set gamma (card/driver doesn't support it?) sdl: init: models init: docs init: localconnect read map packages/maps/official/ac_werk.cgz rev 4 (10 milliseconds) Werk - by Mr.Floppy loaded textures (167 milliseconds) loaded mapmodels (4 milliseconds) loaded mapsounds (653 milliseconds) game mode is "TDM" init: mainloop

I've also tried reinstalling AC as well.
when i actually try to change the gamma via the AC option it seems to change but its as if its only changing the brightness/lightness making the image more washed out as the setting is higher.

Mods, please move this to help forum -.-

is gamma not just brightness?

have you tried updating your drivers. Also try /gamma # (# meaning a number)

nvidia card? sometimes you have a control panel you have to tweak before it'll let AC control the gamma

This is true of my AMD card as well. I would imagine that most decent graphics drivers come with some proprietary control panel that configures which settings applications may and may not override.
