For some reason my game is all of a sudden super bright! not the sprites not th epan els but the geometry .. all super bring and have no shading at all ..


anyone know whats up?

Hmm, this brightness could have different reasons, perhaps you could show us a sreenshot
Have you allready checked your sun colour, level ambient, camera ambient or fog map?
All these values can influence the brightness....

See the wierd thing is it did it once on my desktop pc .. bt i a found a work around by loading a dummy file .. but that doesnt seem to work on my other pc ..

come on people I know you have seen this before.. I have had it happen in other games as well .

why cant i belive that you are not using any shaders...

No I never had this kind of problem,

to solve it for you, please find out what is the cause,

Do you use a shader?
Or some dynamic light.

Without more information, I guess noone can really help you.

You definitly use some kind of glow shader ore something like that,
as the bottom picture is not "standart" rendering.

well it does seem tot be a shader problem .. My specular shader seems to work right on ati computers .. but doesnt work right on my laptop with a nvidia go 6800 ..


im totally stumped as to why it doesnt work on the nvidia machine ...

Have your model a negativ brightness value?

It is definitly a shader problem. It is problem some problem between your shader and your graphics card, or if you've updated your 3dgs version, then it may be a wierd problem between the shader and the newer 3dgs version.

But you need to post more info... And if possible, post a demo of your project, so other people can see if they have the same problem...

ATI cards have failure correction, but NVidia seems to haven't.
This is what I found out while I'm used Quest 3D (another 3D Engine).
It could be a failure in the Shader but also a driver problem.
I have a NVidia card in my PC at home and a ATI at work. There are many differences in displaying the same shaders on this cards.
