You could try using idgamma!

Oh, I forgot one thing.

Be warned, it also messes with your winquake!

r_fullbright 1
when i did the e4m5 nightmare naked the zombies initally are hiding in the dark and you can't see when they throwing crap at you, but with r_fullbright 1 you see them perfectly and its much better
it does spoil the "mood and feel" of levels but oh well

BTW, Idgamma does work well for most people, you just need to tweak the settings right - a lot of trial and error.

I use r_fullbright 1 for some of the runs I've found really hard....after trying the damn run 2237000 times, the map has kinda lost it's atmosphere anyway :P.

Powerstrip should be mandatory for all.

Just use ctrl alt + and ctrl alt - to adjust gamma in any game. Lots and lots of other great uses to.

There are several sites for this that are still online.

personally, I have a Voodoo2, so I can only change 3dfx settings through the WindowsDisplay settings instead of the dos environment.
hope that helps.

Is there a way to make GLquake work on Gforce2 graphic card??
I get error message:
"_GlideInitEnvironment: glide2x expected Voodoo Graphics, none detected" =(

I had problems with getting quake work along with my Geforce in the beginning too..
I just got the latest version of Glquake.

hmm glide is 3dfx .. geforce 2 is not ..
i had a similar prob once, you prolly accidently put the voodoo glquake drivers there or something, so delete all the glquake stuff and start again should work :)
i think the file was opengl32.dll .. but delete with caution :)

Sidd: Delete any and all files with the name glide2x.dll or glide*.dll and make sure you have opengl32.dll in your windows/system dir.
