The transparency issue was always too much for me.


It wouldn't just be an update, though...it would have to be a complete rewrite.

Would be great for rendering hacking.


I would love the ability to remove textures, and just have the polygons.


Also you can't use the "brightness" feature in window mode.

Turbine did put in a brightness slider that pretty much replaced LTBL plugin, IF, repeat IF you are in full screen mode.


if you are in windowed mode the slider doesn't work, to brighten up the O or eater dungeons you must be in full screen mode.


it, has been pointed out in a much earlier thread that it was doubtful with the new Turbine rendering/graphics that LTBL would work in a windowed mode either.


so you can live with the dark screen in windowed mode, or switch to full screen while in the dungeon and then adjust the brightness.

I've resorted to setting an alt video config with Nvidea desktop controls. One with brightnes set stupidly high, so I can see in dark places. And a normal setting for non-ac stuff. The darkness in AC has been a pain in my rear since I first started the game, a couple monitors, and several video cards ago.


I also miss LTBL.

Try tweaking your gamma up a little bit. It will have a more noticable effect in dark dungeons then having to crank your brightness up so high.
