Everything is too dark

Post here if you need help getting started with Daggerfall Unity or just want to clarify a potential bug. Questions about playing or modding classic Daggerfall should be posted to Community.

Thank you for posting logs (and thank you Jay for re-uploading).

I would suggest your ATI Radeon 3000 GPU is too down-level. It looks to be a DirectX 10.1 capable GPU, whereas DFU requires a DirectX 11 capable GPU.

Minimum specs for DFU are an i3 4th gen or later equivalent, 2GB system RAM, DirectX 11 GPU, and 1GB HDD space. This is unfortunately a bit higher than your specs, and no doubt behind game not working fully.

Despite Daggerfall being a 1996 game, Daggerfall Unity is roughly a 2016 game. It's built with modern graphics techniques to support modding that will unfortunately exclude most hardware from approx. pre-2012. Sadly, I don't think we'll be able to get you running on this system.

... Not to mention the RS780 is a "laptop" graphics solution, it was only okay for the less demanding games when it came out, around 2008.
Windows 10 with 4GB ram will also be limiting for gaming
