All the RA and old Q3 maps are way too dark. Ratehr than make a new config just for those maps, I'm wondering if I can just toggle a couple of variables. I have a toggle to turn simpleitems off, and one to turn fastsky on for peeking through portals. So, surely I can toggle between my current values of some variable and another? I'm just not sure which. Gamma kinda lightens things up, but to me it just looks like it's doeing so by introducing a white haze over everything. Mapoverbrightbits? That sounds kinda promising.

As fo the toggle...would this work, for example? Sorry, I really don't know what I'm doing, so...And I'm just using mapoverbrightbits as an example

set LightswitchOn "r_mapoverbrightbits (new value) ; bind (X) vstr LightswitchOff"
set LightswitchOff "r_mapoverbrightbits 0 ; bind (X) vstr LightswitchOn"

bind (X) "vstr LightSwitchOn"

I'm assuming that "lightswitch" not being an actual variable or command, doesn't matter and that it's just a name I'm choosing to give to a variable I'm defining. I keep meaning to learn this config stuff, but time permits nothing more than the occasional playaround with something I found elsewhere.
