Has anyone else had this dark screen problem with Q3, and found a fix??
Thanks

yes it has been answered (sorry i had to add a post to it)already. to find that anser goto the homepage and point ur mouse over to compatibility> click games> and from there 'Q' and find quake 3 on the screen.
This is what you do. In your Quake3\baseq3 Dir. create a file called autoexec.cfg and
Edit it in Notepad and make sure it looks like this:
seta r_ignorehwgamma 1
seta r_gamma 1.4
And then save it. Quake 3 will use these settings every time you start the game so you won't have to worry about it.
