Thief2, Geforce2GTS, and Color Correction

[stultus]

I just installed Thief2 (can't wait to play it) but the screen is way too dark for me to see much of anything. I quit to windows and hiked my Gamma and Brightness way up (in the 'Color Settings' tab of the display adapter), but whenever I start the game it resets my settings. And then whenever I quit I'm back at my default levels. How can I increase the brightness?

you running in d3d or open gl, glide???I'm guessing d3d??try the other one your not running and see how it does!!Is there a brightness setting inside the game,under video settings??

Thief only lists it as "Primary Display Driver," so I don't know what it is.

yeah,
i've been playing a little bit of Project IGI and it's the same way, doesn't tell me what I'm using
You may also want to go into the ini file and see if you can raise it in there in notepad then save it??It's a thought!!

Thief 2 should have a built-in gamma adjustment slider that works fine with GF2 cards. Just don't make things too bright or you'll ruin the game which is meant to be played in the gloom.
