Map too dark

Yes you can boost your gamma, but that wont do a thing on maps like Ancient Remains. Yes you can enable lightmap, but same problem. Ever heard of r_fullbright? That lil command will normalize all textures, so they all appear at the full brightness. It requires a vid_restart.

I hope this prevents people from always bitching "OMG ITS TOO DARK HERE!"

if you have devmap on, then r_ambientlight is good.

Alternate to stop the bitching: just make the maps brighter?

Iagree.  The maps are the only big problem in tremulous they are dark and are hard to navigate.

There is a reason that Tremulous is dark. It's called the fact that it's based off Gloom, which was dark.

Dark is good, get better gamma or take a flashlight and a change of underpants.

Just to make a little complaint a big suggestion. What if humans had flashlight and buyable night vision. Aliens would have a sort of IR appearance meshed into their normal vision. If the flashlight is shined at an alien it would be a little blinded. Possible, Feasible, Like it???

I like it, but it has been suggested before. People just blame the mappers and tell them to make their maps brigher. Nightvision in the helmit or a flashlight would make maps so much better because they could be darker and creepier without the risk of having people not be able to see.
