Gamma correction and colour saturation

[Okkelinor]

Here are too much opinions about is new lightning system better or worse.

I think it’s too complicated to make changeable lightning systems and actually it’s not necessary. But one thing is very important to be made.

It’s a big problem with gamma and colour saturation since the first big changes to the lightning model in 2015.

Could you add gamma correction switcher and hue saturation adjusting to the settings?

Sure this is the easiest way to make everyone happy.

Or just add.

Before the wipe? or everything we’ve seen in the last year?

This is a great idea because its keeping everyone happy.Put lighting control in our hands please.

That will be two too different visual styles, so I agree with Nevir:

@nevir

If we have individual settings, each build will be targeting different settings (and look bad to some people).

Prediction (if it’s a setting): there will be posts like “why does this build look so dark/bad?” with responses of “turn up your lighting setting” …which then just becomes a de facto default

Slight shift to old visual style could be a something like chronoglass as artificial device for look through.

Night time darkness balance - the darkness balance is very display dependent. Different displays can present a different range of dark colours. We balanced the lighting against our displays, laptops, and TVs. But there will definitely be displays where the game appears too dark (and too bright). Given the variation in display the best solution is to expose a slider for players to find a balance that matches their display.

TODO - add an option for all players to balance their own darkness balance.

Well, but here’s another question about hue saturation. Some people can’t play on high-tiers worlds because the colours of environments is too intensive and toxic. Could it be adjustable?

Cool idea. Good to see you around, @Okkelinor

Sometimes i cant do the chiseling cuz some toxic cloulds around my eyes and i cant see anything) but if i change my position little bit then allright, thaths not look fairly. just another little coin from me)
