Just a quick, non-sim related question for you Voodoo specialists out there. I have a Monster 3D I, with the latest drivers and Glide 2.43. It worls great in everything except Quake II--no matter where I set the gamma, the screen is so dark that Q2 is unplayable. All my other Glide programs are fine, so the question is: Is this a common Q2 issue? I've tried evrything I can think of, so I hope the vast knowledge possessed by simmers can help me out....thanks in advance. -- Scott Moore Team Tachyon [link lost in import] Sports *** Network [link lost in import: /***.com] Vintage Internet Racing Club [link lost in import] ICQ 13433409 Responsible Online Racers [link lost in import: /~marknjess/nonflame.html]

I've got the same problem with NFS 3. I think it's the Diamond drivers.... the gamma sliders work for all my games except NFS 3. Don't know about Quake 2, I haven't played it in months, but I'd guess it's the same thing. Rick Just a quick, non-sim related question for you Voodoo specialists out there.

I have the same problem, I got the prg called IDGAMA and ran it and it solved the problem in q2. Now i can see once more! I've got the same problem with NFS 3.
