[Bug] Geforce 7600GT Gamma correction issue

from Demigod Forums

   When I first played this Beta Build, I realized that there were new Highlights that appeared over Demigod's and Objects. Nice indeed, but I had troubles with it. No problems occured when I reset my Video Card settings back to default, but after some invetigating I found that the issue was the "Gamma Correction" found in the NVidea Control Panel. Turning Gamma Correction on causes problems. Such as, when you select something ingame with a Highlight, it will turn your entire screen the color of that highlight.

 Here is the menu:

Here is what happens in game when you turn on Gamma Correction:

Normal 

Green Highlight

Red Highlight

I am running an 8600GTS 512MB and I have encountered the same issue.  I have been trying to find out what is going on: and you were right, its all due to this gamma correction option.  Interestingly enough, I did not encounter this issue in all beta releases prior to 2B.  I guess it is because something was done to the selection function (such as highlighting the entire object being selected).

 

Thanks a lot,

I should mention one thing.  For me, I could not just turn gamma correction off.  I needed to set all antialiasing (since gamma correction appears to be a part of antialiasing) to "Application-Controlled"

Well noted Taolskhaos. But also when you turn on Gamma Correction in the Control Panel, it'll automatically set your Anti-Aliasing on it's own. It's an option that in effect, sets it's own options. Quick way to reverse it is to go back to defualt.
