    Ah but your problem is different,I am using a Raedon 9800 pro now
    All my Geforces (lol) and this Raedon I also need to increase my gamma a tad for my games to be bright enough (like you said but mines about 1.30)

    Your saying your game is fine as long as you increase the gamma but your screenshots are almost black?

    The way I save a screenshot,is printscreen and then I alt-tab out and open Paintshop Pro (6 I think) and paste the clipboard and they are always a little too dark (what my game is without the gamma increase actually) and I adjust the brightness and contrast of every pic. But they are not real dark like you are saying.I suspect what program you are using to paste your screenshots?

    My problem I was having in this topic was different,reading back I didn't explain well but I know now my problem was:

    1. My Resistance was stuck at 12 midnight is my guess.
    Running non Resistance (1.20) was fine and it must have been something within my Resistnace config files.
    I could use the editor and make it any time I wanted,but it always was 12 midnight (i was able to turn on lights and such).
    Every single player mission I played was also at 12 midnight

    Which leaves csla mod as suspect ,as I reinstalled (back to 1.96) and everything has been fine

    Yes.

    About tool, it's just a simple paintbrush and since I use my machine for my game-dev' job, I don't have any unlicensed program on it (except time-limited sharewares and freewares).

    Search The FAQ for "setup" and check your DirectX installation by running DXDiag.

    yep, but that's not the problem i think. i have directx 9.0 (or even higher?) installed.
    the problem is that he can't read the cd.

    About the gamma problem, again, since I have access to every market graphic cards and monitors I want. I've tried after a new complete installation of the game+RES+patches-addons and the problem is the same with Leadtek-Guillemot-Diamond 3D GF3/4 GCs and whatever the monitor is IIyama-Nokia-Sony...

    Damn ... could this be linked to a 2K OS / Detonator problem? ...if so, why only with the only game I play ?

    i copied it now 1:1 from the disk (is that illegal?). Gold does not work, but patched resistance (196) does work now. but why didn't the installator work?!

    try to go into screen resolution, and change it to a different resolution and then back to your prefered one again. I had a problem with not seeing soldiers, and this was the way to fix it!
