Can't switch API ref language and color picker.

Hi. I’m walking through tutorials now and met two (probably) unrelated minor problems.

  1. In Monodevelop, when I use Ctrl+’ to get API scripting reference, it always tries to find pages in Russian. And well… there are no pages in Russian for most of the items. And I don’t know, how to switch language to English. At least there is no such option in Monodevelop.

  2. In ‘Lighting’ options in Unity there is a color picker for changing skybox color. And it’s HDR and I can’t find a way to change it to ordinary one.

So can I switch these things? Or it’s a bug? Or design oversight?

P.S. I actually posted question about language in Monodevelop scripting reference in Unity Answers but a week has passed and there is not answer. So that’s why I post this here.

I think the first item you mentioned is a known issue. But I don’t know if there’s anything in the works to fix it, and I haven’t seen where anyone knows a workaround either, sorry.

For the color picker, I may be able to help. Colors are HDR when their intensity is greater than 1. Values of 1 or less should appear normal.

I’m not sure, what do you mean. I stumbled onto this problem in Tanks tutorial. Devs gave there color values for the ordinary color picker, so I had to create a material, set it’s color (since material’s color picker is an ordinary one) and then copy it to the skybox. I don’t know, maybe it’s not a big deal. But still, such workaround is somewhat annoying.

From what I’m reading the setting involves going into the shader and removing the option from there, but then the shader is likely developed with the assumption that you’re using the HDR color picker. Just try setting the brightness of the color to either 0 or 1. I believe one of those should make it function normally.
