I think an AH programming solution for disabling gamma setting tinkerers is impossible, it is done thru windows at the operating system/vid card setting level.

Just a wild guess, but I think he was referring to the gamma adjustment in the game.

Wouldn't matter what you did with the in-game gamma adjustment, they could always just change their vid card settings in windows before entering.

No nights please.

 People have this weird fantasies about gaming fun that somehow exotic, abnormal environmental conditions will add to realism and fun.

 I play IL2/FB/AEP on a normal basis and can't believe the frustration I have to go through to find a decent gaming room. Dusk, dawn, night, poor visibility, rainstorms, super fog, super ack fire, etc etc....

 But the bare truth is 90% of normal operations were literally under "normal" conditions - daylight, acceptable visibility, good weather.

 Harsh weather, storm, extreme fog, night time and etc. abnormal environmental conditions were reasons to cancel flight operations. Night time was a theater for specialized planes operating in pitch-black darkness equipped with special gadgets and gizmos.

 Sometimes(like maybe once a month in my case), fighting in night time or storm fronts can be fun, but having it as a regular part of arena gameplay just simply cuts down my playtime significantly.

Primarily, those that want night back are Bomber jocks who want a 'free-pass' to their targets where they have a much less chance of getting their arse shot off by fighters. In that sense they are supported by WW2 reality. The British operated their bomber fleet entirely at night after the US entered the war for that very reason. Their bombers lacked the defensive weaponry and long-range escort to bomb during daylight when they were apt to be intercepted by fighters.

So, if you are a bomber jock night is great, for everyone else it's a time to go play another game or screw with your gamma settings and shorten the life of your monitor.
