Fleskebacon 1 Posted February 25 I experience problems with full RGB range enabled. Dark areas are way too dark, and some of the bright areas are way too bright. The brightness control inside the game doesn't look right either, as the leftmost Dirt-logo is invisible. When setting either the graphics card or screen (or both) to limited RGB range, everything looks correct, although with less contrast. Anyone else experiencing this?

Hexcaliber 3 Posted February 26 Not having the same issue at all, my pc is always set to 10 bit full range rgb even for SDR content(I assume you are using an HDR monitor). If you are using an HDR monitor, you should note that the game does not support HDR on the PC. It is possible if you have switched windows to HDR mode that it may be causing problems with your particular monitor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've noticed some areas are dark and some of the tracks are so bright the ground looks white. I also have my nvidia setting to full rgb. I'll have to try it at limited to see if this fixes it.

So the only way around this problem would be to disable HDR mode altogether just for the sake of playing DR2? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fleskebacon 1 Posted February 28 I don't use HDR, but I will double check my settings. The problem could very well be HDR-related, now that you mention it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jesped 198 Posted February 28 Go to your my documents folder Go into saved games/my games folder Find dirt rally 2.0 folder go into hardwaresettings with notepad or other text editor, open up hardware_settings_config.xml Find and then replace this value: <hdr level="1.0" /> with <hdr level="0.1" /> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fleskebacon 1 Posted February 28 I tried fiddling around with both color depth, tv settings and the HDR level setting, but nothing works, except setting RGB dynamic range to "limited". The problem is probably limited to specific setups, including mine. In daylight, the trees roadside often appear as black shadows. I'm running an Nvidia GTX970 and a Samsung LED TV, but I'm not running anything in HDR mode, just regular 1080p. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fleskebacon 1 Posted March 3 Ok, so I have tried several adjustments, both on the pc and the tv. I have a Samsung 4K tv set to "game mode". This is probaly not a bug or an error, but the game is definately much more sensitive to settings affecting black levels, than most other games. I changed the colour space on the tv (from the default setting "native" to "auto") and adjusted the brightness a bit up (from 50 to 55). That enabled me to use full RGB range without having the extreme darkness in shadow portions etc. in the game. The brightness adjustment screen in the game is a good reference. The leftmost Dirt-logo should be barely visible with brightness set to 1.00. If it isn't, something's off. So I think my conclusion is that my settings were bad, but not nearly bad enough to manifest itself into problems in other games. My settings now look better altogether in all games, so this was a useful experience. 🙂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neomo 119 Posted March 3 Same here, full range looks so bad in some cases, but i dont change my monitors settings because of one game, so sad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
