I'd love to donate but it seems I'm always too late. It's rare that I find something where they met a donation quota and want me to try again later!

Something I noticed though-- the game will reset it back to 1. So, the only way I can get it to "stick" is to actually start the game, and wait for the Login screen. Then ALT-TAB (or whatever) out of the game, and set it back to 1.3 (or whatever level). Then go back into the game. It will then stick.

Actually I just found my answer! Well, I found AN answer. I can simply adjust the brightness on the command line before I start the game: $ xgamma -gamma 1.5 Which will make it 1.5x brighter. Worked like a charm! And when I'm done, I can set it back so that my desktop isn't super bright: $ xgamma -gamma 1 Hope this helps someone else. Super easy fix, and not permanent.

This will probably put me in the "un supportable" box, but here goes: I run Linux, and use Wine to play. So, it's pretty much identical to how it is done on a Mac. Prior to this, I used a Mac and never had an issue with the Gamma. System is quite new: 32G memory, M2 drive CPU: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09FXDLX95?th=1 Motherboard: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BQD58D96?th=1

The brightness looks great everywhere else on my computer (it's not a laptop, but a real tower with a 27" monitor). If I change the brightness of my monitor, it looks better in the game, But then everything else looks way too bright. I can't see borders and certain text on websites since it's all too bright. So it's something with the game. Also, as I mentioned, the Gamma slider simply doesn't work. When I move it to the left, the brightness does nothing and goes down to 30% without changing the brightness. If I go to the right, it does nothing but the value in the slider turns green at 100%. If I continue going to the right, the value turns red and the display gets darker and darker until it maxes out at 300% and is very dark. The brightest is if I keep it at just under 100% it seems.

Thanks for the tips! But not able to improve the brightness unfortunately. I'll just continue playing in the dark. Looks great at night in my house.

In the past, I was always able to go to Settings/Graphics/Gamma and increase the value to make the display brighter. But now, it is set at 100, and won't go brighter if I slide it to the right (to increase the value). If I slide to the left, it definitely gets darker. Is there something I'm missing?

This will be short and simple. You just install wine on your Linux system: $ sudo apt-get install wine Then, as your non-root user: $ wine /path/to/the/installer which you downloaded from here ( https://manifest.cohhc.gg/launcher/hcinstall.exe ) ie: $ wine /home/user/hcinstall.exe I had the game up and running in minutes.

Is there any support for this on the Mac? I know the Mac uses Wine to emulate/run the Windows program, so I tried to use Wine to run the CoHModdingTool.exe program, but it just threw a LOT of errors.

Found it! Initially I got stuck behind the bartender down there. But after running around a few times I made it out. The video helped a lot. Thanks!

Do the holes from Tiki still work? I tried the larger one which is just to the left above the main exit, but my circle will never go white inside. The only other hole I found was a very small one above the bar, and I could never get a circle of any color to appear outside.

Yes, I've done all this. A few times I missed the hole and just ended up stillin Tiki. But if I get the circle to show up through the hole and click, I don't TP at all. It does nothing. That's why I was curious if they deactivated this ability or if Flight was needed in order for me to TP for some reason.

A little late I know, but I was curious about the TARDIS. I first noticed it when at the top of the stairs as I was heading down in Pocket D in the AE area. I think I found the crack in the wall in the VIP lounge, but can't seem to TP through it. My white circle appears through the track, but it never activates the TP when I click there. Does this still work? Also, I read that I need 'flight' as well. Maybe this is my problem? Why is flight needed?

I use an iMac and could never figure out how (or if there was a way) to temporarily tab/shell out of CoH to my deskop, then back into the game again. It would be useful to lookup something while still in the game. I use a standard keyboard on my iMac because I think the standard Mac keyboard sucks. I accidentally found the right keystroke to get me to my desktop: CTRL-upArrow. If you do this, you'll get the bottom panel to show up! Then to get back into CoH, you simply select the CoH Statesman icon in the bottom panel. Just thought I'd share, since I spent quite a bit of time trying various keystrokes with no success. Hope it helps someone!

Hello, I had this problem and the Homecoming Launcher worked great. Thanks for that! I am curious about a couple things. Is my old installation still on my Mac? I was afraid to go deleting things without knowing. It seems my costumes directory is still accessible via the new launcher, so it must be sharing with my previous installation somehow? My player 'info' history and chat history is gone. I had a pretty extensive list of player history and chat info, but it appears to not have made it to the new installation. Any tips on how to get that info back? Thanks again!

Idea/suggestion: ability to drag/organize costume slots. It would be nice to be able to move them around (maybe dragging the existing costumes from 1 slot to another).

This really helped, especially the "rescan" part. More people need to see this post! Worked perfectly. Thanks!
