Brightness Adjustment

[Vorph]

Hello,

is there something I'm doing wrong Why is is it (mostly) not possible to adjust the brightness when running a game of Quake 2... it's always way too dark.

I'm currently using a GeForce 5900 with ForceWare 66.81 Drivers

 

[_on_Fire]

Try bumping up the value of

gl_modulate

I have it set at 2, 2.5 or 3.5.

[_on_Fire]

type it in the console of Quake II

I use KDE 3.3.0 desktop on Slack, and find the best way is to use the monitor gamma adjustment in KDE prior to starting quake2 (I use 0.95 normal usage, and have to push up to 1.95 for quake2 to look the same as intended)..  gl_modulate makes the colours go real wonky sometimes.
