I have a problem when i tab out from fuhquake-gl. When i come back my gl_gamma is changed. Thats is, the value of gl_gamma dont change, but its not the same gamma anymore (its darker). If i set gl_gamma to something else (after tabing back to fuh and have wrong gamma) the gamma changes, i can then change it back to the value i want (the value it actualy have when i tab back).
Also, if i pick up powerups or shot an rl on my feet the gamma gets back to normal.
Its not only when i tab, its also when msn or something else goes on top, so its not windows fault (i guess), since whenever something takes focus its changed.
I have an Ati X700 pro agp card. Anything to do about it?

bind this to a key:
alias +gamma "gl_gamma 1"
alias -gamma "gl_gamma 0"

is it legal to have a gl_gamma +/- alias bound to movementkeys then?
(like: +gl_gamma 0.51 -gl_gamma 0.5) (0.5 is what i want it to be)

vid_hwgammacontrol "1"
And this is my .bat file, never have the problem anymore.
fuhquake-gl.exe -ruleset smackdown -width 800 -height 600 -conwidth 400 -conheight 300 -bpp 32 -mem 64 -democache 32768 -gamma 0.7 -noforcemaccel -noforcemparms -particles 512 -force +cfg_load moo -norjscripts -force

in software mode there is vid_resetonswitch which fixes this however there is no command in GL to do the same thing... it would be good to have it.

The problem is it inverts the gamma. Smaller numbers get brighter, and higher numbers darker. Least that's the problem I get when tabbing to Win and back
I solved it by adding the inverted value to my cmdline, like so: -gamma 0.5
Complete cmdline: D:FuhQuakefuhquake-gl.exe -width 800 -bpp 32 -conwidth 400 -noconsmooth -ruleset smackdown -mem 128 +cfg_load dakoth +set vid_displayfrequency 75 -noforcemparms -gamma 0.5 -maxtmu2 -zone 1024 -norjscripts
