One of the problems is that the view models (like your gun) are usually scalled to look good.. shadow calculation is harder to do then. But i can again once more rely your request to your engine coders :)

It should be done using the w_weaps, or whatever the equivalent is in Nexuiz. I.e, the weapon that the player models themselves are seen holding, rather than the view weaps. I thought Nexuiz had this before?

I think I may have found a bug...

I'll be playing, and at random times (regardless of server) things will get very dark. A quick vid_restart fixes everything, though.

I've recently switched over to x86_64, but when I was experiencing the bug it was under i686. I'll see if I get the bug on x86_64 when I get home from work.

That might be a hardware/driver related bug... Someone else had a similar problem with one of the 2.3 RCs iirc. Does it still happen with 'v_hwgamma 0'?

nope nvidia card.

It seems that the bug is not appearing in x86_64. Then again, when I was using the i386 versions it was from the nexuiz website, and for the 64 bit I used getDeb's version.

maybe this will help?

I've had this problem since day one I started playing Nexuiz. (and thats a long time ago :P ) I have an ATI card and most of the time this happens when for example my firewall wants to popup a window. Resetting the gamma then fixes the problem.
