With my current monitor as well as my previous monitor that issue ceased to be. I think the too (!!) dark issue is that lots of people have crappy monitors... or they don't know how to properly adjust them nothing to do with the games themselves. That said, one can hide a lot of shortcuts the game developers make with dark environments. When everything is brightly lit you notice low-res textures and low-poly models a lot more. -- "I did not have misleading relations with those facts" George W Steve ¤»Inglo«¤ www.inglostadt.com
