Anyone know the command to change the brightness, gamma of Outcast?
( the video menu gamma slider doesn't seem to work with my video card
(voodoo5500) )

and 1 more quicky, I've been reading the posts about enabling dismemberment, or realistic sabre combat.
I'm confused because their are some who say that to enable it, you should type in g_saberRealisticCombat 1 and others say its g_dismemberment 3
g_dismemberProbabilities 2


** I just want to see parts fly in single player.
thanks in advance!!

First look for r_ignorehwgamma in jk2config.cfg/jk2mpconfig . It should be set to 1 ( 0 disables the gamma slider in setup ).

You can also try these commands:
r_gamma "x" ( 1 is default, setting it higher will increase brightness)
r_ext_gamma_control ( ?? )

The saberrealisticcombat is for single player...

For MP you have to set cg_dismember to a value higher than 0 (3 seems to work nicely)

For it to work though the server you're playing on has to have dismemberment on (g_dismember set to 1). So if you created the server you have to set both g_dismember (to enable it) and cg_dismember (for you to see it).

Hope that cleared it up for ya... :D

hey thanks alot guys! your help is very helpful :0
Now in the cfg files, there are lots of things that, like counterstrike, i'm sure you can tweak.
I saw something about fps in there, i didn't want to change anything without asking away first.
is there a link to somewhere where they explain all the cfg terminology? I have a very fast cable connection here and would really like tow get the most out of it.
thanks again for your awesome help
