Most recent update, very dark? Also, a request: Brightness slider?

I'm not sure but I played a moon planet with the newest graphical changes and it seemed very, very dark. When I was on the Dark side of the moon™ it was so dark I could hardly see my own units/structures. Also, I realize this technically should go into the bug forum but at one point while going into the settings to search for a brightness slider after returning back into the game, the planet was actually invisible other than units/metal deposits; the only way to get it back was to go back into settings. With this I'd also like to suggest something for Uber to maybe consider working on to at least help, a brightness slider. It'd be greatly appreciated!

I had an issue with what appeared to be hdr after entering and leaving the settings menu. F5 fixed that easily though.

I very much support a brightness slider. +1

You mean you want controls for...
Gamma settings? Okay, I'm not even sure if that qualifies as a pun.

I heartily chuckled.

Hey, this isn't the 'Fire!' Thread! >:1 (Okay I can't lie.. I loved that pun. )

Aside from some weird derping that I'll have to post in the bug forums, I also had some serious brightness issues, +1 for this. On a positive note, HDR is no longer messing things up, progress!

Whoa man, that sounds like it was a rad trip man..

It's ok. I can't see how I could possibly derail this thread into a pun-train.

You're on the right track!

For me, when the sun is on your side it is too bright as the units really shine/glint so I turned down the brightness but then when it is the night time it is really dark and had to put it back up :/ (Had all things turned on and graphics on max)

We need sliders for all settings!

We need sliders to set sliders too.

turn HDR off, personally I like darkness. I'd like for nights to be darker.

Well darkness is great, but not to the point where I can hardly see my units and need to use icons only as idicators.

.....what?

see that's my point. What the hell is wrong with icons?
wait for headlights to be implemented.

they'll light up the night.

I anycase you should try and learn to use icons or you'll have big troubles with this game. turn on "selected icons" in options so that you can see what you've selected.

Everything is really bright for me in game, like everything seems to have a bloom and the colors seem paler. Also the textures flicker sometimes. Don't know why.

Yeah, I'd like to see the dark side of moons and planets be quite a bit darker relative to headlight intensity. When you look up at the moon, you can barely see the dark side at all because it's almost as dark as the void of space behind it. In PA, you can't really get that 'crescent moon' look because the ambient light is so bright on the dark side of a planet. Right now the dark side of a planet looks like dim terrain with units / buildings giving off some dim light with small falloff ranges.
I guess I just want to see darker nights and brighter lights

Whoa there, I can identify and use icons, I've been here since Alpha; I'm pretty sure I'd get used to the icons.. Just I tend to be pretty zoomed in when working at my base and not being able to see what so ever makes it pretty difficult...

Also: I can't see the terrain which makes it hard to see craters/understand where or why I can't build something in a certain area.
