I am myself Mac UT veteran, for few years, and recently have played on PC UT. I have a question to anyone, who played UT on PC

1. Despite all my efforts, color gamma on PC is just different, its sometimes way too dark or way too bright and then colors look washed out. Anyway to have same color gamma as on Mac?

2. Most importantly, controls and movements. I am accustomed to speed and movements on my Mac; however, on PC how to say, everything is so fast, i cant react correctly; movements are somewhat jerky (but not slow); even have sometimes motion sickness (though never on mac); how to adjust controls? Usual adjustment just does nothing. Its too too fast, i mean everything.

I haven't played UT lately, but I remember it. The too fast speed may be a server setting. Have you tried different servers. I was on a RTCW server where the server admin was fooling around with a server setting and was making things go too fast too (You couldn't move without missing a door entry, and it was slightly inducing motion sickness), and I seem to remember this happening in UT too, although not as bad, and that it was a server setting.

I have it even in single player mode; tried everything..no help..basically when turning, i always overturn, each movement is exaggerated or multiplied, something like that. i am wondering is this PC default config?

kind of like working with a PC mouse!

I know what you mean. Not enough expertise or experience to help though.

Make sure your displays are set up correctly. A general recipe for setting up a CRT monitor goes like this:

Make sure your room lighting doesn't hit the screen, otherwise it'll look washed out, no matter what.

Using the monitor's buttons,

- Turn up contrast to the max
- Turn brightness up, then bring it down until black areas in an onscreen image start to look black, not washed out.

Contrast is actually the 'light intensity' of the display, while brightness controls the blackness of black.

Setting up the display like this for any computer you play on will create a certain base level, on top of which you'll need to tweak the settings in the OS and in the game.

Thanks!

I am using Apple CRT Studio Display 17 inch..in Mac UT looks gorgeous, in PC everything is washed out, too bright yet too dark.
