Bought new display card today, switched from Radeon to Asus GTX 770OC to get moar performance.

Bad decision. No matter what I adjust, immediatelly when I launch MWO gamma correction goes straight through the roof. Actually it gets so bright, that in every night map there's absolutely no need to anykind of night vision. Terra Therma looks like daytime etc...

Drawback is that in daylight maps and white maps gamma blurs whole vision, and everything beyond 300m is pretty much just a moving smudge on screen.

Now, does anyone know how the hell I can adjust this gamma even remotely to it's normal levels? I'm using driver 340.52.

Not too good publicity to nVidia after 10yrs I've been Radeon-man.

Are you using Nvidia's Geforce Experience to set your in-game display settings? If so, I would disable that and change them from the game-client instead.

KIcked that out of system, didn't help. Tomorrow I'm gonna change HDMI->DVI and see if that helps. If not then I'l change back to Radeon.
THIS GAMMA IS BURNING MY EYES!

Don't blame the card for Video settings... Don't even try to go there.


Are these your settings currently..??

Ambient Occlusion: Quality
Anisotopric Filtering: Application Controlled
Antialiasing - FXAA: Off
Antialiasing - Gamma Correction: On <------------- Look
Antialiasing Mode: Application Controlled
Antialiasing Transparency: 8x (supersample)
CUDA - GPUs: All
Maximum Pre-rendered Frames: Use the 3d application setting
Multi-display GPU Acceleration - Single display performance mode
Power management mode: Prefer maximum performance
Shader Cache - On
Texture Filtering Anisoptropic sample optimization.. : off
Texture filtering - negative LOD bias : Clamp
Texture filtering - quality : Quality
Texture filtering - trillinear optimization : On
Threaded optimization: Auto
Triple buffering: On
Vertical sync - Adaptive
.
.
Did you COMPLETELY remove ALL of the old ATI/AMD drivers and related Control Software, do a restart and then install the new card..??

Have you adjusted the MWO video settings..??
Have you calibrated your monitor..??

What are your complete system specs..??

If it's only in game, try deleting your shader cache and scrubbing your old ATI drivers off your system.

Have you tried any other games? Do they have the same issue?

You can adjust gamma in options, could also change stuff in nv control panel I think, or on the monitor.

Anyway, I'd recommend to not install the geforce experience.

I found solution, and it was just weird. HDMI sent out wrong type signal, and it was messing with my Viewsonic VX2753.
Problems nature and 2 solutions can be found here:

tl;dr: Download this utility , set RGB to full range and gamma explosion is gone :D

Greetings all,

Just a note here, unless you need the sound signal sent to the monitor (has speakers) then DVI-D is the route/cable to use to connect any flat panel monitor or projector.
(It is designed for carrying uncompressed digital video data to a display. It is partially compatible with the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) standard in digital mode (DVI-D), and VGA in analog mode (DVI-I/A).)

The HDMI sends the digital sound channel as well as the video.

Just some info,
9erRed
