Automatic Lighting Issue
You guys have done it again. Another amazing screen saver, it will even be better before you go to version 1.0, like all your others. Anyway, I am having an issue and I wanted to know if anyone else had experienced this. When I turn off the Automatic lights and set them the way I want, they will still change automatically. I haven't been able to pinpoint this to a repeatable problem, so far it is just random.

Nope, I do not have this problem, try pressing the "L" key while the screen saver is running and adjusting the light with the arrow keys...
|
Cuddlywolf: having the same problem. Pressing L and the arrow keys do work, but after some time it goes back to being dark again. I suspect it's a bug that'll be fixed in the release.

If it unregistered version, it'll goes dark after a period of time
|
Me Too
I have the registered version and it pretty much goes dark and stays there. It does not appear to cycle like MA, MA2, MAT do.:eek:
|
Mine is also the registered version. I have had this same experience on a couple different systems now. I was trying to eliminate any hardware issues.
|
Cuddlywolf and De Bobo Mon,
Please tell us the Operating System, Video Card, and DirectX version. Note that each tank has its own settings on the lighting. Make sure you turned off autolights on both tanks. |
My system
Windows 2K, latest patches, SP4 etc. NVida GeForce MX420 Direct X 8.1 (4.08.01.0901) It starts normally but invariably goes to dark and stays there... Thanks |
Does it show the message that your Shark is lonely in the dark? if it does then your keycode is not valid. You may need to contact tech support here.
|
No Message - It operates normally other than eventually going to darkeness. I can manually bring the lighting back up with the arrow keys.

De Bobo Mon and Cuddlywolf ,
I just need to know the exact settings of the lights and tank cycling. Do you have tank cycling enabled? What is the "Open Water" tank autolight settings and delay? What is the "Fantasy Theme Park Reef" tank autolight settings and delay? Make sure the delay slider is all the way to the left for both tanks. |
i'm having the same problem too...
once i launch the sharks ss , my setting are: automatic lights ... on delay ... the shortest time for both open water mode and fantasy theme park... happen even on cycles the tanks... when the ss running until the foreground lights goes dark, it will stays there..."the dark" here means i still can see the sharks swims here & there...definately no display message that "your Shark is lonely in the dark?" this happens on both modes... my system spec are: win98se nvidia tnt2 latest directx |

De Bobo Mon,
Thanks for the picture. Sounds like there is a bug. I will need to reproduce on my side before I can fix it. I will let Schnaaps add to the list to reproduce and fix. Thanks again. |

Still doesn't work
I tried the MD version. I checked the box marked automatic lights and press ok. I watch the screensaver for a while and it seems the light doesn't cycle automatically. I go to check the automatic light setting and its been unchecked by itself. Now I'm not always in the dark I'm always in the light. :confused:
