Matching brightness and gamma

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know how the brightness and gamma levels are determined? Are they relative to your monitor's settings or do they just use their own arbitrary settings? I would like to know so I can match ofp to window's settings. When I take a screenshot in ofp and then paste it in psp, it is always different. I could manually get them close but is there a better way to figure out what settings to use?

I'd like to know also. My screenshots look fine when OFP is running, but when OFP is closed and I look at the pictures, they are so dark, sometimes almost entirely black.

The gamma and brightness level options in ofp are for ofp only. So yes, they will obviously appear darker in windows if you have a ofp set brighter then "normal"

One possible solution is to use a third-party screen capture program such as FRAPS instead of the built-in Windows screen capture.

FRAPS saves screen captures as Windows Bitmap (.BMP) files, which are uncompressed, but have excellent color fidelity. You can obviously convert them to another more efficient format afterwards.
