Vixen (too dark)

I have problems with Vixen. The game is too dark in Winuae. I have tried all kind of settings. With both ADF and IPF.

This is how it looks for me:



The screenshots on HOL looks lighter: http://hol.abime.net/1590

Can anyone help me with this?

That screenshot looks normal to me. The ones on HOL are far brighter than they should be.

Crappy ST port. Have a look here : http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=36895
Either adjust the settings in WinUAE or ask Horace to do another colour fix (doubt he can be bothered for this game ).

Weird. On a real Amiga it's bright (as it should be).

Comment from a guy on Lemon:

Quote:
The only thing that makes me curious is, how come the game is so DARK in WinUAE? I have tried several different configurations, but this game seems to be using some weird programming that doesn't emulate well. Anyone else got this effect?
Thanks for the tip about adjust it in Winuae. Set the contrast to max makes it look the same as on Lemon/Hol.

Hmm, that's interesting. Have you tested it yourself? Could be a missing feature in WinUAE then. If you can somehow confirm it doesn't look like that on a real Amiga, you should make a bug report for Toni.

Of course it's shit, jerky scrolling with 15-20 fps or less. The C64 version is far better.
