Default Classic display darkness

I haven't seen a reference to this, and several searches also turned up no results, and I'm hoping it's possible to at least make it similar to classic...

Is it possible to reduce the display settings to eliminate all of the modern, gamma-corrected brightness? I remember EQ being VERY dark in 1999. I specifically remember how things looked at night, and the red glow of mobs due to ultravision. I'm worried that this isn't possbile with the Titanium client.

Any help?

Nope, it's an (unfortunate) limit of the Titanium client.

*EDIT:* Well, except you can always turn your alpha down.

I ended up rolling a dark elf to save the strain on my eyes back in the day. Playing with anything less than ultravision made them very sore indeed [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

The Surefall Glade tunnel was pretty easy to get out of on p99. Not so much on live at the time.

I guess you could just turn your gamma setting down to like 35% in options and it would be the same on like a Human or Barbarian.

I know you want a super dupper way but I would think it would work for peanuts.
