Honestly, it wouldn't help anything because most monitors I've seen have a game setting that adjusts the brightness so you can have an advantage over your opponent so it would be pointless. The only real way to fight it would be to somehow disable that function and I believe that's only possible through hardware. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seitan 161 Posted June 2, 2017 Nature ambient sounds inside the buildings/towns are way too loud. I dont see the sound problem when you run in the forests, fields, meadows and so on. I get that the ambient sounds change when you come in to new area? From forest to meadow. From field to town etc. But thing that i dont understand. Why ambient sounds go so loud when you get into the town? Shouldn't it be... more buildings ----> less animals, less nature ---> less nature ambient? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buildings would amplify sounds due to echo and with no civilization to drive them out the animals would quickly return to the abandoned towns. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
valdark 142 Posted June 2, 2017 Something is definitely wrong with this patch on my hardware. It keeps freezing up within moments of launching but it's not crashing so I'm not producing any dump files to send in. Going to do another clean install and see if that does anything.

I have an eye condition and when it gets dark, even if I boost my monitor's brightness in its menu, I still rely on the game's video setup options to help me out a bit more because I literally can't see shit. Even if I have a lamp on my desk to help. So for the love of all that is holy, please don't take away my capability of tweaking the brightness/gamma. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If anything, shining a lamp on your monitor would make it harder to see because of the reflection wouldn't it? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've kind of been waiting for someone to provide an example before chiming in, so thank you. Accessibility is an important concern for game development, and seemingly basic video adjustment options like this can go a long way in helping facilitate a wider range of players. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As of right now, even the in-game brightness/gamma settings don't do anything for me. It literally makes no difference where I slider that slider.

I, for one, have no problem with people adjusting their gamma as I understand that some people have eye problems and need help being able to see when the game gets dark. I think the problem others have though is that those who don't have eye problems are using it as a way to see those of us who don't adjust their gamma settings for an unfair advantage.

But if you're playing windowed mode the gamma slider does not work at all. So you should play in full screen instead. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do that because I have 2 monitors so I can move my mouse across without having to tab out. I'll try it when I get back home. I had no idea, thanks for the tip! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seitan 161 Posted June 2, 2017 Well that was a nice 2 hours at very rainy UK 01. Thanks for the bus. It was left engine on middle of the road near Mogilevka. Managed to drive it to Tisy. btw there's a door problem at big yellow houses. Would have made a ticket, but feedback tracker was acting strange now. Would't let me upload pics. And was very slow. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Emil Praga 3 Posted June 2, 2017 (edited) i am still dreaming of locking the GAMMA since 0.60, i saw some of you guys saying some monitors can adjust brightness. Yes, but brightness is not the same with Gamma, during dark u can crank up your brightness as much as u want, wont make much of a difference. Also, if they lock the gamma, the gameplay will be better during night, flashlights will have their usefulness. I always prefer to play more realistic, but when other players use this "cheat", it forces me to use it also, cause i don't wanna be in disadvantage. So yeah, lock the Gamma, it would be a shame, because with all these new sounds during night, in combination with moonlight and wind, the game is spooky, and i love it, but when i crank up the gamma, its like daylight again, takes away the pleasure...

☣BioHaze☣ 7337 Posted June 2, 2017 DayZ running fine for me. A couple crashes when opening inventory but mostly stable. Met 3 neutral players. Stacy, Jermain, and one guy I didn't get a name for. I was shot at while running through Novo industrial complex carrying backpacks for Gary who already met Brooks. They were nearby in Novo proper and came down the road to support me at my pinned down position. We thought they were on the hill above but he was actually perched in a 4 spotlight watch tower. Brooks got a bead on the guy and took him out fairly easily. He had shot me 2 times as I scrambled for cover but I never bled or got KO'd. We then got a bus and started to make our way to to some hot spots. Brooks' game crashed and the bus ran into a guardrail popping up high, but from inside Gary and I saw it on the ground. Exiting killed Gary and I. Brooks logged back in safe.... sigh. Spawning back in, the push North began anew. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baroness 462 Posted June 2, 2017 (edited) I'm hoping it will be dark when I log in a bit later so I can test this whole gamma thing out. In the meantime.................................trying to get out of Orlovets. I got a few moments of peace and quiet before the zombies started spawning left and right. They say you can live off love, sun and water. I got the H2O and Vitamin C part down quite well! (It would be okay with me if you wanted to give me the title of Photo Queen instead of Woodland Warrior, ya know... just sayin'.)
