Hello there,

in version 0.5.496 rev18731 the light of the coloured standing lamps seem quite dark to me...

I think you also didn't take the "psycho visual effect" into account.
Green is recognized as a brighter colour than red.
Red is recognized as a brighter colour than blue.

There are different standards of how to calculate the perceived brightness. This is the one I prefer:

RGBperceived = 0.299 * Rraw + 0.587 * Graw + 0.114 * Braw

If you're not very familiar with stuff like that, just google "luma". ;D
I hope there is not too much lost in translation...

kind regards,
Mondkalb

I'm not sure I agree with the problem, but you seem to offer a constructive solution.

I'm currently trying to take a screenshot, two make things better visible, but it doesn't work...

On Windows: pressing "print", open paint, pressing "ctrl + v" -> screenshot of my desktop, not the game :o

Any sugestions how I can do this?


OK! I managed to take a screenshot (see attachment)! F9 and F10 are the magic keys! :D

The screenshot isn't the best example because of the inventory. Empty rooms might be better, but to be honost, I'm currently to lazy and want to play a bit! ;)

I think the brightness of red and green are a matter of taste (and personal color perception), but blue is really dark...
