I’m about to test it, but wanted to let you guys know.
It’s a built-in update, just launch Pitool and it will let you upgrade under settings.
Sadly, I only see 3 options for the brighness setting (High, Normal, Low), not a slider.

I will try to set the high brightness to check that the black dot will come to see easier or not.
May low brightness for testing the black level.

Well, just did some testing with Elite and the difference between high and low is so subtle I had to go back and forth to convince myself it’s there.
It’s certainly not night and day difference (pun intended).
On the positive side, the tracking detection is now near instantaneous - the lighthouse icons light up almost immediately.
Side-note: there is a strange effect after starting an application, which looks like I’m looking at the world throuhg 4 separate panes of glass. It goes away after I turn my head a couple of times, but it’s strange regardless. Does anyone else see this? I can’t remember seeing this before.

Just tested low brighness in ED - effect is there , definitely screen is dimmed.
But imho it dosn’t helped this game too munch because we need saturation bump up if brightness if dimmed.
Not sure but also observed more geometry distortions 
(?!)
@Sean.Huang Any chances for saturation an colors changes in next PiTool ver. ?

Did you try closing/reopening everything (like when you change the FOV)?

Yes, even rebooted the headset and Pitool itself.
