Quake 3 problems....

[Vega]

For some reason Quake 3 looks very dark. Doesnt matter how much I turn up the brightness on the monitor or the options menu. Any help would be appeciated. I have a Clap2 btw

Try the following from the console:

r_dynamiclight 0
r_ignorehwgamma 0
r_overbrightbits 0
r_gamma 1.5 or 1.8
and if it's still dark try bumping up the r_intesity variable.

Isn't "seta overBrightBits 0" the default?

I found that putting that value to .8 or .7 fixed my brightness problem without adjusting anything else. Try even lower than that if you have to.

seems like its more rocket arena then it is Quake3

Thanks, that overbrightbits setting worked
