I and many players like the map ut_forrest.pk3 (2002)
https://maps.pro-gam.../ut_forrest.pk3

There is a beautiful forest and many hidden places for the sniper.
This map is very dark, so I can not play...
The "r_gamma" parameter (or the “brightness” of the game console) does not work well: the brightness increases, but the color and contrast disappears, so the map becomes ugly.
This is a bad idea - to change the brightness (saturation, contrast) when changing maps during the game.
I always use r_gamma "1.2" (default)

How to fix ut_forrest.pk3 map, make it bright and contrast?!

As an example:
There is a very good, but dark map ut_aardtimes_beta2.pk3 (2004),
https://maps.pro-gam...times_beta2.pk3
In 2011, someone increased the brightness of textures, corrected shaders.
No topology changes, objects, textures, etc.
Now this is a beautiful bright map everyone likes
