[QoL] Daytime in GD for Nerds

[Callynn]

So, I don’t particularly enjoy going out during summer, partly because I want to play GD.

However, I have a specific issue with playing GD in summer. Dark graphics (particularly at night in-game) with a bright summer sun reflecting on the monitor.

So I was like; there’s a gamma bar for that, and then I realized it only works in full-screen mode

Is there a possibility to turn off nighttime in game so I can actually see stuff happening? Or perhaps tune the gamma so it works in windowed mode? I use a dual screen setup (as I think most people nowadays do).

And for the record; I do have curtains, and a sunscreen, and still there is enough reflection to make GD invisible when its nighttime in game.

Well, if the devs could read your text maybe. Personally writing in blue on a black background is just as bad. Do wish people would realise that colouring text may look “cool”, but it makes it damn difficult to read.

Can’t you make a video profile(s) with gamma settings changed in your Nvidia/AMD settings?

Move your monitor so that it’s not getting the sunlight reflecting on it

Do they really, that’s amazing… Please don’t claim things just for the hell of it

That was the point… Wasn’t intended to be cool.

Adjusting it for every day/night cycle is not very convenient.

Moving my monitor is not an option, my wife and i have a pretty large setup taking the complete room.

Yet, having the devs adjust their game to every known possible combination of people’s lighting and/or computer setup is? LOL!

Oh, man, I understand you so much! I used to play at night and sleep in the afternoon because of that problem.

And then I bought curtains.

I know that one well.

Okay it’s been a few years since I last ran a multi monitor setup, but I thought you could still run games full screen as they just run full screen on your main monitor??

I can run it full screen but that defeats the purpose of dual screen (windowed mode prevents me from having to wait 10sec every time I go to my other screen).

Anyway, I don’t mean to blow this out of proportion, it’s a minor QoL feature in a niche for me. I just found it odd there was no way to adjust gamma in windowed mode.
