You can find it in Amazon. I don't say it will work with the CD, that's why I asked for a test with it.
Thanks again for the help
I believe the problem is caused by modern monitors, so I don't think reinstalling will improve the issue.
Modern monitors seem to get confused by the fog so they draw it green.
It's not the game that does this - you can prove this by taking a screen shot showing the green fog. The fog will appear completely normal UNLESS you view the screenshot in full screen, then your monitor will show fog as green.
Based on the posts I've read it seems to ONLY occurs on 1440p monitors, generally ones with a high refresh rate along with a newer graphics card.
Since it's not related to the game itself, changing the voobly settings or reinstalling won't help.
Possible Solutions
1. Adjusting the sharpness on your monitor.
- This seems to fix the issue for most people, but in my case my monitor (Dell S2716DG) only has adjustable contrast and brightness. Adjusting these doesn't seem to help.
2. Downressing to 1920x1080.
- This completely fixes the green fog. Some people might prefer this resolution anyways, but coming from HD edition it seems far too zoomed in for me.
The only workaround that works for me:
1. Adjusting the "desktop color settings" in your graphics control panel.
[For NVIDIA: Right click on desktop, select NVIDIA Control Panel, click on Adjust desktop color settings and select "Use NVIDIA settings"]
These are the settings that seem to work best for me:
Brightness: 80%
Contrast: 0%
Gamma: 0.55
This will make colors more washed out, but it tones down the crazy green and completely fixes the f****ing (except on bright maps with snow or white sand).
It's a bit annoying to have to toggle this on and off when playing, but this is the only solution I've found that makes the game playable for me.
Hopefully some hero out there will come up with a permanent solution that completely fixes the problem, but until then I hope this will help.
