Default TGW Problem

I have Grey Wolves 1.1a installed. I was told to check atmosphere 16 km light because my screen at night I could not see a darn thing, so I did. It made no difference. I still cannot see anything at night except the lights in the buildings in the harbour, but that's all.

Stabiz mentioned to me that it is the monitor I am using. It is a Seanix FLAT slim TFT LCD monitor. Stabiz says that by reinstlling 8 km dark will solve my problem. Is this correct???

I need help. I would like someone who worked on designing TGW to respond.

I would take Stabiz recommendation. Stabiz is the guru of video. Besides, whats the worst that could happen....nothing. There are other threads in the help forum on this subject. Sometimes you just have to adjust you brightness on the monitor.

Hehe, Rob, I`m no expert on this, but you said there was no light version? The numbers (8, 16) have nothing to do with gamma, they are indications of how long visiblity you have. (8 km is best for not-so-strong computers)

I would think the light version is for people that find the game to dark.

Anyway, where are the GW guys?

I’m running the TGW and having similar problems, I try setting up both ways, a dark one and a light one, I’m thinking it’s just that my computer is not up to stuff to be able to handle it. I’m running one version of TWG without the light or dark clicked, which makes the sky very boring, but what I’ve seen of TWG so far it’s worth getting a new computer.

I don't have money to throw around as I'm on a pension. Besides, SH3 heavily modded workes perfectly. So why should I buy a new computer just to run TGW?

i don't either, but i would like to get a new system not for just TWG but for some other reasons also. it does seem that all these games just keep on getting better but at the cost of leaving my computer in the dust

hey now i'm popeye, grew up watching him
