I may have entered Nvidia's twilight zone. Please help with my driver
configuration. I am using ForceWare 71.84 on my 6800 LE graphics card.
Since Half-Life 2 is running too dark (monitor brightness & the gamma
setting in the game are maxed out), I wanted to create a profile in
the driver with a higher gamma value.
- Under "Color Correction" I created a color profile called BRIGHT
with the gamma set to 1.94.
- Under "Performance & Quality Settings" I have created a new
application profile called HL2. I have linked hl2.exe to this profile.
- In the advanced settings of HL2, I've selected BRIGHT as the color
profile to use.
So far so good...
- Then, when I run Half-Life 2, the image is *not* bright. Quitting
the game and opening the driver settings reveals the following
twilight-zone related horror...
Color profile: not available
If I take the steps manually, e.g. I select the BRIGHT profile before
starting up Half-Life 2, everything goes well. But I want to make use
of Nvidia's automated feature.
CAN ANYONE SHOW ME THE WAY OUT OF NVIDIA'S ZONE WHERE NORMAL THINGS
DON'T HAPPEN VERY OFTEN???
Thanks,
Arend
