Is there a way to increase brightness

[SpemM]

Hi,

I find the game is too dark to play in some areas.  I'm using the Update8 version but the problem was there in u7.

I've set the brightness to 1.3 which I'm not sure changes much.  I tried gl_moderate 1 but again no joy.

system is Win10 x64

Nvidia GT730

Other games I have lets me take the brightness way up (washout level)

Thanks,

Spem

the correct command is "gl_modulate* and you have to set it to 2 or higher to increase brightness.

Of course it's dark, you've set the darkest brightness value!

The gamma (brightness) scale is inverted; it goes from 1.3 as the darkest, to 0.3 as the brightest. I personally use 0.65.

If you want to make things a lot brighter without washing out the colors, try changing r_rgbscale from 2 to 4.

BTW, gl_modulate isn't even a cvar in KMQ2. r_modulate exists, but it shouldn't be changed from its default of 1.

Boy do I feel dumb!

gamma 0.4 seems best for my rig.

Thanks, Spem
