Hi guys! For some reason UT stopped working yesterday and would not launch. (I would click on the app and then it would briefly show a black screen before crashing.) I have removed all of the old files and tried to reinstall the game, but it has not worked. (I have tried both the full game download and the updater, and there has been no progress on either.) I have also made a second account on my Mac to try a fresh install, but that is giving me the same issue.

I looked around, and it looks like it is not creating some of the necessary game files. I looked in my /Username/Library/Application Support/Quake3 folder and there is no q3config.cfg. I have no idea what to do to fix this.

Here is the terminal log if I try to launch it from terminal:

You are experiencing a well known issue related to the latest versions of OSX.

Please go to your q3ut4 folder, open the file autoexec_example.cfg and add this line at the end of it:
seta r_ignorehwgamma "1"

Then rename the file to "autoexec.cfg" and try launching the game again.

I am looking into this issue and would like to have it resolved for the imminent UrT 4.3 release.


Thank you for the quick reply! Worked like a charm.

This is a pretty strange issue, because the game was working just fine when I first downloaded it. Suddenly after a day or two of playing I got the black screen issue. Very weird.

I faced the same issue here with a Macbook pro 2018 and did the steps and works like a charm. THANK YOU!

FYI, I just updated my machine to Mojave 10.14.6 (I keep a couple OS versions behind the latest release for music-app stability, usually, hence the late update). I had the OP's issue, and Barbatos' initial fix of
seta r_ignorehwgamma "1"
inserted into my q3config solved the problem. So it's still floating around.

Did you recently update to the latest version of OSX? AFAIK this issue appeared on OSX 10.9 so any newer version should have the issue.

It seems to be quite random though, I can't replicate it on my macbook which runs OSX 10.11 neither could I reproduce it on OSX 10.9 a few months ago.



Hi Barbatos I had the same problem as the guy who started this thread (even years later lol), and your fix worked to open the game. But now my game's brightness settings are not changing in the system settings tab which makes the game pretty unplayable. How can I make my screen like 75% of the brightness slider? Thanks
