thanks but it seems i am not able to explain my problem properly.
the diver update did nothing. running the game in windowed mode makes it not dimming BUT whatever resolution i use in windowed mode only changes the size of the window. so there is no resolution in window mode in which i am able to read the text because the text size is always the same. changing resolution in windowed mode only changes the window not the content.
and there is no difference in behavior if i force the windowed mode via start parameter or through game options. so i wondered why you think it would do something.
so i resigned to changing the resolution of the operating system as long as i play. its very annoying because it throws my desktop in disarray, but if i change the OP resolution and set the resolution in game to it and play in borderless window it looks like fullscreen, is big enough and doesnt dimm. i just hoped i would find a solution that doesnt include so much "work" around it everytime i play. *sigh*
thanks for trying so hard.
@VolpinaLadra I am sorry that this didn't work for you. It is very strange, I have never had the command line resolution work like that - changing the size of the window, not the resolution of the game.
Maybe it's something different with the tv instead of a monitor, or possibly a driver issue. It's just so strange. You could try just setting the game resolution setting, but don't force the windowed mode. Make sure you're using the hyphen in front of the switches, too.
-r:hhhhxwwww
Unfortunately I am out of town without access to computer, so won't have a chance to try anything else for a while. If I come up with any other ideas, I'll let you know.
