Gamma Issue - no0od13s - 09-10-2013

Hi guys, been looking forward to playing the new Amnesia game. I'm having an issue with the gamma settings though that makes it somewhat unplayable.

If you see this screenshot, this is how it is supposed to look:

It stays like this for a split second (had to mash my f12 at the right time to snap this) and then reverts to something super dark like below:

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Your graphic card can cause this problem. What is your graphic card model?

And try to update your drivers.


EDIT: Your moniter can cause this problem, too.

Maybe you have software intended for screen correction? (It could be driver feature too)
Just a guess, for example i'm using F.lux and i have to shutdown it before play, otherwise gamma will be uncontrollable.

What operating system are you using?

Thanks, I have F.lux and totally forgot about it. So, that fixed it for me.

Hi Jens, I am running on Windows 8.

The problem is f.lux, disable it and you shouldn't have any gamma problems.
