Everything went black -- technical question

Hello all,

I've been playing on your sniper server on-again / off-again for quite some time. Yesterday I was playing and screwed-up something.

I picked up a flashlight that I didn't want and hit the "F" key thinking it would turn it off. Well, it did a little more than I wanted. Everything went black. If I hit F9, which I think is the screenshot key, I can briefly see things (like a flash). If I minimize I can at least work to see the desktop and access the menus. I tried changing my resolution up-and-down from what it was, but that doesn't help.

Does anyone know what I've done? As my username implies, I can f-up an anvil with a rubber mallet, but this time I'm really screwed. I'm sure it's something simple, but I just don't know how to undo it.

Thanks,

frag

Hi frag_magnet welcome to the forum. I’m sure there is someone that will tackle your problem. I do hope there is an easy solution for it.

What I myself would do in your situation is just re-install the game fresh and see if the problem is solved.

Just to satisfy the first question that everyone is going to ask....

Have you tried going into a practice session and hitting the F11 key?

That's the one that controls brightness in-game.

You win the prize, Otis! That was the ticket. Whatever I did turned it all the way down in an instant. Thanks a million!
