Thanks blast.

I confirm, when using a USB-C dock, which does passthrough, the issue is not present.
I am stuck with this dock for now.

This can be closed.

Thanks,

Hi all, I am having an issue when my laptop is connected via a dock using displaylink. The display is dark, barely visible. Changing the brightness in game settings doesn't make a difference. It just stays the same. Running Win10 pro 1909, game is set to use MX250 card, connected to the dock via USB...

I still have to change Energy Saver options to take effect before playing. For example, I keep it on Vertical Sync, but if I play without changing it to Off or FPS Limit and back, FPS will go to something like 200+ and drop to ~30 when there is intensive activity on screen. It I change it to either ...

I recently noticed that if I do minimise (F4) after launching the game and then switch back to it, the brightness is as it should be.
It's quicker than going through the menu and adjunsting the brightness.

Hi blast. Sorry I didn't mention this. I have since moved to an i5 7200 with HD620 running Win10 x64 1903. When I was missing the option to change brightness it was on this machine. When I start the game it starts dark. I change the brightness one step up or down and it goes to normal. I ocasionally...

Thanks blast.

I now have the option to adjust brightness back.
bz is still starting dark and after adjusting the brightness either way and back, it goes to normal.

Forgot to mention, now my screen is dark at all times.

I have reinstalled bzflag, issue still there.

I've had a look through the .cfg file, but couldn't see anything related to brightness level. Not sure if I could add a line to set the brightness.

I am running Win10 v1903 x64, everything up to date, including drivers.

Just noticed this. I am now missing the option to adjust brightness all together.

Hi fellow tankers, I have a couple of issues with bzflag. 1. screen goes darker randomly during gameplay. It happens at random times, sometimes it doesn't occur for weeks, sometimes 3 times in 1 minute. It happens only in bzflag. To fix it, I need to go into game options>display>..., change brightne...

Salut Ben. There will be a game this Sunday at 16:00 GMT. If the schedule will change, I will post the new time here. Also, take a look here: https://www.facebook.com/vipertwocastles/posts/881669435207168?comment_id=882748848432560&reply_comment_id=882752348432210&offset=0&total_comments...

Good!
That makes three of us.

Done.
Hope it helps!

Makes me sad to read news like this.
We already knew bzflag was dying, but this is like a splash of cold water in the face.

Thanks for all the great work ahs.

I would like better a bzmatchball pass style. Passing in the direction the tank is moving, dunno how far.

That is a god idea!

@FS maybe they had tiny, but being tiny without a flag is cheating!

One more question.
Agent West, why are there girl named tanks only?

Nice!

What flags did they have?

Just a few weeks back we played on 1vs1 pimpi.
Can't say I got to know him, but I can say he was a good guy.
Rest in peace!
