    I have a acer predator xb273k hdr gsync monitor paired to a rtx 2080 vc

    I'm playing youngblood (all updates and patches) ,I seem to have lost the HDR .

    hdr boom is enabled and hdr in windows is enabled as well,with 445.87 drivers

    it used to work fine,is there a way to force it on?

    I also run doom eternal and reddead redemption 2 and hdr works fine in those games

    so I know it's a game issue,Thank you

    no dice
    I did a clean install of 445.98 dch drivers
    I played doom eternal right after that and HDR was fine,same with rdr2
    I also did a complete uninstall of youngblood ,and stripped all leftover crap
    it was fine 2 weeks ago ,I don't know what could make it not work
    is there anyway to force it ?

    check that the monitor driver in device manager is generic pnp and not standard pnp

    I'm using the driver from the monitor page from the acer website
    Thank you

    edit :
    I tried the generic pnp driver but made no difference

    Wolfenstein:Youngblood only has HDR Bloom not real built in HDR.
    So are your saying HDR Bloom is not working.I just checked ,although I do find very little difference with HDR Bloom on/off.

    If hdr is not working ,all the reds will be real dull ,almost orangish
    when the game loads up all the text in red will look like it popping out ,almost fluorescent in color
    that's how you can tell that hdr is enabled,it's a big difference
    if you can't tell the difference ,then hdr,or as you hdr bloom is not active

    > If hdr is not working ,all the reds will be real dull ,almost orangish

    then fix your screen calibration, game doesn't have hdr display support.

    There is no HDR in this game called Wolfensteinn:Youngblood,there is HDR Bloom,no one is trying to trick you.IF you want I can show you the difference between HDR On/off on a supported game.
    I guess I should say ,I also have one of those stupid $2000+ monitors and HDR is fantastic but just none in this game.

    I understand that they use hdr bloom and it may or not be real hdr,but there is a definite real difference in the color with it on and off
    that's all I trying to say,min wasn't working and I fixed it
    I wasn't trying to say that is was or wasn't HDR,I had an issue and it was resolved,and thank you all for the advice

    of course theres going to be a colour difference, windows hdr setting reinterprets the system colour profile.
