7.0 Benchmark - Washed out color possible fix

[eternalmagic]

Saw this was noted on Twitter, so:

For anyone who is finding their character a bit washed out, the "gamma correction" setting might be having an effect. It is currently set to 50 as the default, but you can change it as you see fit.

I changed the gamma correction to 30 to see the difference, and while it's not super noticeable all the time, it does seem to have a difference! The lower correction level seemed to fix most of my issues with the vibrancy.

Gamma correction at 30:


At least to my eyes the color looks more vibrant. Wanted to pass along the info for anyone who found the colors to be off so that maybe you could have your worries put at ease.

I completely forgot to change that setting, thanks. I have gamma correction at 0 in game itself and it helps a lot. Putting it at 0 in benchmark as well made colours much better!

I made a post in another thread that uses Nvidia's Geforce Experience Game filter function to remove the washed out/haze look.

You can definitely download the NVIDIA game filter, but the point was just trying to help people remember the gamma correction. That way there's something in the game settings themselves that might help.
