if there isn't going to be afix for the whole lightning issue I'm giving up on the game. In the screenshots i've seen so far the game looks spectacular however I am yet to see a single monster as the whole game on my screen is pitch black. The only way for me to help the issue is to increase the gamma with r_gamma 2 command but than all the graphics look horrible. The ducttape mod isn't helping much either.
