  • Test of Time Terrain BMPs are too dark also

    One or more people posted new versions of the ToT original game terrain bitmaps, to lighten them up and make the game more readable. (Why doesn't Microprose support a patch for this????)

    I've started playing the fantasy game, and it has the same problem. I KNOW the undergrounds are supposed to be dark, but there is still such a thing as too dark, and the earth world is also too dark.

    Anyway, I took the shareware program I use to look at images, and used some minor gamma correction to lighten all 8 terrain BMPS, and it really helped. I'm sure there are people out here who can do a better job, any takers?

    What about the Sci Fi game? Same terrain problem? (I haven't tried it yet.)

    I agree that Microprose should at least offer
    alternative "lightened" terrains.
    They really are too dark and cluttered . sometimes enemy units are right there on the screen and you would NEVER know it if it wasn't for the health bar. Thats pretty bad.
