Its some tremulous textures, they'd look awful with the gamma up. They naturally look like that.

I'm not sure that he literally means that its black, but it is extremely dark there. Tremulous approved dark, but definitely not dpball approved dark.

Lots of people have monitors that are even darker than mine.  I think TinMan said airtime2 was too dark for him to see, but it looks plenty bright on my monitor.  The other problem with dark maps is that it makes people crank their gamma/brightness way up and the whole game ends up looking like crap.

I found out that airtime2 looked bad for 2 reasons:
1. laptop, had bad backscreen lighting
2. ati radeon IGP 320m video card sucked
XD
And yeah, true that about dark maps looking bad with high gamma, I run trem at full gamma, but on my LCD it still looks very dark, so its not ugly looking...just dark.

It's just one small dark area, can you boost the light in that area without creating more light enities? Or just brighten those red lights?

Easilly. But I don't want a bright red room. That would look REALLY bad.
I made a map for another engine that was bright red

every user on the forums complained so I had to make them dimmer.

Corporal please don't revive threads. This one is almost a year old. Just leave the oldies be next time.

And I doubt this will ever be finished or released considering the maker has not been on in almost a year.
