[Solved] Gamma setting gets overridden
Posted: 06 Sep 2016, 00:10
Hey, guys, I'm somewhat baffled here. I don't know whether this is an openMW problem, but openMW is the only game I've noticed it in so far.
My problem is that the nights, and any places that should be dark are annoyingly bright, even though my gamma slider is pretty far left. If I click on the slider, the picture gets accordingly dark for the fraction of a second, but then it gets bright immediately again.
If I change the color settings in the nvidia control panel, the exact same thing happens.
I have f.lux installed, but disabling it for an hour doesn't solve the problem.
Something obviously is interfering with my color settings, but I can't figure out what it is. Does anyone have any quick suggestions?
System:
GPU: 980 G1 gaming
CPU: some i7
OS: Win 7
EDIT: I noticed it is my second monitor. I have a 1440p monitor for games and a 1080p monitor for everything else, and the 1440p monitor has some automatic color correction nonsense or something. It's an Asus VX24A.
Edit2: So my 1440p monitor for some reason doesn't like darkness in openMW or something, but the switch-back-problem I described above affects both of them. So It's not automatic color correction.
Edit3: It was f.lux.
It was f.lux all along.
I'll get some sleep now.
