Very Dark Units

[MarcAurel]

Hello,

I had great fun with EB .81, but now I updated my Game to 1.0 and I have a graphic problem.

All units on the battle map are very dark while the rest of the screen has a normal colour.

I played EB .81 over a half year without a problem and I use the same graphic setting for .81 as for 1.0.

Below there is a Screenshot, where you can see the problem with some very dark Akontistai and Peltastai.

Thank you for your help.

And Sorry for my incorrect English. I’m not a native English speaker (and writer). (-;

Edit: Sorry, can't ad the screenshot on my first post. It will be in the next.

This is a combination of:
monitor settings;
new lightning files made by an EB member;
time of day in your battle.

There should be a link to other lightning files around somewhere... (Goth made a couple of versions, and the darker version was decided to be the prettiest - but the fact the units get too dark is a known issue with especially older monitor types.) There will be various mixes & matches you can try, there's bound to be someone you will like.

Yes, I found the files.
Now the units are looking much brighter.

Thanks to Tellos Athenaios for helping and thanks to Goth for the alternativ lighting files.
