Hi,

 

Just installed VMware Player with a Win7Prox64 virtual OS (2 cores, 3.5 Go RAM) and I got a brightness problem. The color of the Poe window is only good when I'm selecting certain buttons. Most of the time it's super bright. Any idea ?

 

[DISPLAY]
adapter_name=VMware SVGA 3D
antialias_mode=0
borderless_windowed_fullscreen=false
fullscreen=false
post_processing=false
resolution_height=600
resolution_width=800
screen_shake=false
shadow_type=no_shadows
texture_filtering=0
texture_quality=1
vsync=true

Use PowerStrip, It fixes way better the brightness, but you might get some flashes with the brightness... Its just a tiny fix :]

It seems the problem is deeper :

Should I use a VMware workstation version instead  ?

 

EDIT : Same problem with Workstation version... and PowerStrip doesn't change anything.

I didn't say it would fix, i said it just removes the permanent brightness and replaces it with 2~3 second brightness flashes... Thats how i "kinda" fixed it...

There is still no solution for it...

Go to my documents, go to my games then go to path of exile directory, there should be a production_config.ini and add this line:

 

under [Display]

svga.vramSize = "64000000"

i thought that was a setting in the .vmx file for vm?

my personal fix is to press F1 to get FPS, ping etc. It disable the "brightnesds bug"

With Dxtory : same thing, but you have to disable the FPS display in Dxtory. (disable all overlay things in overlay settings of dxtory)

 

hope it will work for you guys
