Brightness

[Alcoholic]

Is there a command you can call from the script, or even a server command, to limit a user's brightness? I want to do this so they dont up their brightness superhigh and cheat in this dark map im making.

Yeah just check the r_gamma value.

Something like this:

Code: Select all

gammathread:
  while(1)
  {
    local.gamma = float(getcvar(r_gamma))
    if(local.gamma > 2)
      setcvar r_gamma 2.0
    wait 1
  }
end

I don't think it's a good idea though to force a user's gamma options. Certain monitors need a high gamma to make things visible, especially when under poor light conditions (i.e. sun shining in the room).

it would be better programming if making it brighter didnt make dark areas visible
