Whait for 1.3 patch?

Heh, I doubt that'll fix it in his case :p

On the other hand... Do you have any Adobe products installed (Like Photoshop, Acrobat Reader etc)? See if you have Adobe Gamma Loader loading at your startup and if it does, remove it and reboot. After that the problem should be solved


Proceed as follows:

• Click on "Start".
• Hover over "Programs" and then over "Startup".
• Right-click on the Adobe Gamma Loader and choose "Delete" from the dialog box.

Sounds promising...:hmm:
Good find!

If possible, set refresh rate to 75Hz.
Update to latest drivers.
Close all background programs...
Try that.

Well, i have a PIV 3.4, ATI X800 XT PE 256mb, 3GB RAM... into 1024x768 i can run the game at full graphics, with antivirus, ACD SEE, Photshop and many other programs like antispyware, antihackers opened into the background with no FPS problems. Most of the time i am tweaking files. :p

Into the control panel... there is a box, (Show only accepted options), and only 60hz is acepted, not 75hz, if i uncheck this box, 75Hz apperas, but not sure, aparently the monitor do not accept more than 60 HZ.

I killed Adobe Gamma Loader when installed this new monitor.... may be i need to enable it anther time ?

Many thanks gus for help and suggestions i still trying...

Any new idea, please comment...

I have just read patch changes for 1.1 and there states that gamma is available only in fullscreen, so try running it in windowed mode...:hmm:

Well... may be the Adobe Gamma Loader is the problem, if i re-enable it, when i rebbot the computer, it makes the same as SH IV, washed my monitor colours overriding my control panel settings.

I disable it and when i rebbot, i have my desired gamma settings, but after run SH IV, when i go out of the sim, it makes the same as the adobe gamma loader, it washed my screen colours overriding my control panel settings.

No other program make this, only SH IV, it seems to "wake up" the adobe gamma loader settings...

The problem is i use Adobe Photoshop and Adobe LightRoom.... i am not sure if i can "kill" this proccess.... :hmm::hmm::hmm:

You can remove the process so it wont start on start-up...

End point : use the monitor's settings (use the buttons on the monitor itself) to override all other settings (software ones).

Good luck

So, the adobe gamma loader starts itself when running SH4, right?
For real, I am not sure how I can help you with that.....:hmm:
During the day, I will fire up Google and CNET to see what can be done.....
Stay tuned...

Just a hunch but could you configure desk top resolution to be same as SHIV game resolution ? So if you run at 1024 then set desktop to be the same.....like I said, just a hunch but.....

I will try it, but the problem is 1024 is not the monitor native resolution, and desktop and folders text looks horrible at that resolution...

Not sure, but seems to be just like that.... the matter is, after close SH IV, the gamma settings are the same as if i enable Adobe Gamma Loader...

Many thanks for all you guys for appreciated help !!

I am thinking into use Security Task Manager, this program detect any procces into the background and can kill any of them for ever or put any of them into a Quarantine status...

The main problem is i manage digital photografy, and may be i need that procces to manage colour profiles ?

I have the proccess shut down, even in this condition, when i use SH IV, and only with SH IV, when close the sim, it seems to overrride my control panel settings.

Good luck

My monitor has no buttons... the only way to modify it is to install the control program and make all changes by software...

No mechanical buttons...

The builder program is not good, it do not reduce bright enough, so i decide to uninstall it and use my drivers control panel settings, and it works wonderful.... up to i use and close SH IV.

I can live with this, after close SH IV i can go to the drivers control panel, and need to do nothing, only open the tab and all setting back... i do not need to adjust them another time, when i click on the monitor tab, they setting are restored.

I can live with this but it is so anoying...
