[QUOTE="_gl, post: 205615, member: 805"] Woohoo, 2560 resolution is back, and new 'Brighter Ball' config! Works, but the ball is now too bright with darks rooms imo. No longer looks realistic. Is there a happy medium? BTW @Farsight, it's great that you're listening and fixing bugs. But I've been meaning to talk about your 'beta testing' lately. I spent years beta testing, for people like MS, Adobe etc. I think it's absolutely crazy that games companies like you expect people to _pay_ to be testers. Early access I get, but quality testing is a skill and should be rewarded, not charged! A good tester knows exactly what the devs need to know, how to use tools and give quality reports. They're worth their weight in gold, and you won't get them by making them pay you! Every thing I've tested gave me the software free plus the odd perk. In my case I'm a programmer so my reports were even more useful (knowing exactly what the dev needs to know, often suggesting possible causes).
